http://cyril-souchon.blogspot.com/2012/01/day-in-life-window-boxes-in-city.html
Arbitrary stuff that comes to mind: whenever I feel like thinking aloud. Thursday, January 12, 2012. A Day in the Life: Window Boxes in the City. Its a long steady walk up Ferreira street from 45 Commissioner. Normally there's not much time for reflection, you head on as quickly as you can because at the nether end of each trip is a meeting room and a waiting group of people. I could take the shuttle bus: but unless I have a laptop under the arm I prefer the walk. And we have, I suppose, the answer to th...

cyril's musings: Thoughts at my Son's wedding
http://cyril-souchon.blogspot.com/2011/12/thoughts-at-my-sons-wedding.html
Arbitrary stuff that comes to mind: whenever I feel like thinking aloud. Sunday, December 4, 2011. Thoughts at my Son's wedding. The present is in our children's hands. Their race is well begun. The future is their children's lands. Uncertain, unspoken, undone. The baton has been handed. Spectators now and relaters,. Our Glory days are done. The karma bequeathed to the future. Awaits our children's children's hands. We shape their thoughts, (and so hope, restore). Our broken landscape our damaged shore.

cyril's musings: The Echo Remains, the song won't fade
http://cyril-souchon.blogspot.com/2010/10/echo-remains-song-wont-fade.html
Arbitrary stuff that comes to mind: whenever I feel like thinking aloud. Sunday, October 31, 2010. The Echo Remains, the song won't fade. Is it so wrong hanging onto your song? Was I just mad? That time - the best ? And if not plain crazy. Was I just lazy? How did I lose? Did I just fail to choose ? Of course I survived. Deep in my head,. Like a book I've just read. An echo which burns.

Arbitrary stuff that comes to mind: whenever I feel like thinking aloud. Thursday, November 25, 2010. Advice for the boys (who would be men). A girl of an age never changes her age. And her friends who know better. Are her aides and abettors. The young girl she knows. The cougar she proves that with age she improves. The girl will be mistress of every man that she kisses. Keeps age under cover when she hunts for a lover. Watch her friends who conspire to corral desire). What of we, other gender? My Grand...

Arbitrary stuff that comes to mind: whenever I feel like thinking aloud. Monday, November 8, 2010. My Father, like so many fathers of his generation, kept his silence about the war. My father fought in the Second World War. He did not speak much of it. In those far-off days, it was uncommon for men to admit to emotion, let alone show it. That was on the 11th day of the 11th month, at the 11th minute of the 11th hour: at the appointed time and day when the promise was kept: " we will remember them. The la...

Arbitrary stuff that comes to mind: whenever I feel like thinking aloud. Monday, November 21, 2011. Lazy Sundays composing Limericks at the Cricket. Last Sunday Niranjan and his family persuaded me at last to spend another day watching the cricket at the Wanderers. Of course, there are always moments of silence and daydreaming at cricket matches. That's a whole big part of their charm! Goes without saying .Five-day matches, not those frantic short games! Have you heard of ze Commentator's curse? Who make...
