Sanny Day
It is sunny day today

Remembering Gratitude and Sam Kauffman
After I graduated as teacher: East London High
Because I boarded at an ashram in Durban
Check of my first salary, went to it as thanks

NOTE: The Swami - "not good in Christ terms" - but the most abstemious & disciplined man I knew, blessed my gratitude. His name, Swami Sahajananda, or formerly Srinivas Naidoo of Estcourt, said I would always have Grace. I have never gone hungry, or very cold, 42 years on....
