Book five Chapter 13
A SENIOR’S VIEW
Speed of life a racing car
Rapid changing years
Rapid changing gears
Flood of energies flowing through
Far and wide deep and true
Time of great change so far deeper than I can explain
The end of the beginning OR beginning of the end
Either way we must retain personal sense of worth
Looking forward we must gather all the threads that come to us
From the outside sphere then wind together in meaningful tune
Of the way we live our short live’s together to make it as a guide
A SERIES OF UNCONNECTED THOUGHT PATTERNS.
10 YEARS SINCE BILLY LEFT
“Life will never be the same
No one is entirely to blame
Oft I feel I am living in a game”
“So much love surrounds my space
With growing Grandies in my face
Such special time can’t be replaced”
“Reflecting on the previous day
Mind space, reacting to the fray.
May have handled a better way?”
“Feeling of getting up in the morn
Early, very early before the dawn
When hope emerges to be reborn”
“The ‘ocean word’ is much more used
To describe in meaning a difficult day
Required, explained to me this way
When an F no longer has enough sway
When you are done with being abused”
“Know who you are, you are who you are
And that is the most important thing by far
Be what you be, be what other people see
The only way one can be completely free”
AUTHOR NOTE
[A] FIVE SENSES:
· Sight
· Sound
· Touch
· Smell
· Taste
[B] SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD:
To see
To hear
To touch
To taste
To feel
To laugh
To Love.
[C] THREE PRIMARY COLOURS and HUE:
The world of colours is a vast and wondrous place, full of hues and shades that evoke emotions, convey meaning, and add depth to our lives.
The psychology of dominant colours is rooted in our brain’s response to visual stimuli. When we see a dominant colour, our brain processes it as a signal to pay attention.
Primary colours, the most dominant Red, Blue and Yellow can’t be created by mixing other colours.
Red is often associated with passion, energy, and excitement.
Blue is linked to calmness, trust, and serenity.
Yellow is associated with friendliness and joy.
HUE refers to the dominant Colour Family of the specific colour we're looking at.
Pure hues of both secondary and tertiary colours can also serve as dominant colours.
White seen as pure and untouched.
Black conveys a mixture of power, determination, corruptibility.
Green associates with nature.
Colour, the general term used to describe every hue, tint, tone or shade we see.
White, Black and Gray are often referred to as a colour.
A-,B,-C [ABOVE] ARE ALL AT OUR DISPOSAL IF WE MAKE THEM OUR GOAL
ADOPTED, INDIVIDUALLY OR IN ANY COMBINATION IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL
THEY HAVE BEEN MY TASK, TO COMPLETE THE BOOK I WASN’T GOING TO DO
My books started with photography until morphing into ‘Pics & Poetry’ combination.
Until a current brave, perhaps naïve, idea to attempt to add a third concept: SOUND.
I have added video recordings, mostly of the sounds of nature, to enhance the images.
Please find experimental venture ‘Book Five’ to combine the broader principles of senses and colour.
“BEEN THERE AND BACK AGAIN”
Any reader familiar with my earlier works and indeed in my new work, will note that I have added another into the mix. PEOPLE:
People in nature, from all varied walks of life including some, in their natural state.
Such images are deliberate to highlight the bare concept, we are a basic part of nature.
Images with human connections specifically designed to be Meaningful, Tasteful, Respectful.
Not something or someone all dressed up sitting above as some sort of higher supreme entity.
I encourage readers to look beyond the images, into the words and concepts that were formulated in my mind space at the time of recording and photographing.
To Delve deeper to explain better.
· Images I see in front of me.
· Sensations I feel around me.
· Sounds that bind all together
· Importance and integration of humans into the mix.
It will be you, the reader who will be the judge in your own individual way.
What to make of my three phase-combination of nature and people happenings.
Not all people see the same angle from any given vision.
I encourage feedback where a story reached your inner you.
