I wrote elsewhere of my brief flirting with turning my back on the world and joining the alternative lifestyle with the promise of getting away from it all, living a simpler life, and making new friends. Luckily, I stopped digging just in time - click here.
One friend from that encounter was Uta Langer who eventually rejoined the human race but not before we had lost contact. Some idle googling on a rainy morning came up with the above painting and this very contemplative piece of poetry, both by her, together with an address.
Like her, having plenty of time, I penned her a short postcard to let her know how much I enjoyed her poetry and to wish her all the very best.
