This made me chuckle. I really like it, it speaks to me. My family thought i was retarded (PC at the time) because I never cried as a baby, they surrounded me with bright colours etc to try stimulate me~ I think I was just born with the awe.

A really inspiring read is Kenneth Patchen's "The Origin of Baseball"

Thanks for sharing Maureen. This, and the other epiphany poem really did happen to me. In both cases I will never know what they were meant to be.
