ADRIAN said...: Good to see you back...Thought you couldn't capture things in flight.
Tell him to uncross his legs and buy some bicycle clips!; 9 August 2010 at 21:41

I most certainly agree with you. The first flight must take some nerve.; 10 August 2010 at 12:49
Unknown said...: Hi Adrian..Good idea that. We watched another guy try to get airborne without the engine at the back. He gave up after quite a few abortive attemps. Was really amusing watching him hop, skip and jump.. generally backwards and ending tangled up.; 10 August 2010 at 12:57

Li Po

(Li Bai Li Po)

Drinking Alone with the Moon

A pot of wine among the flowers.

I drink alone, no friend with me.

I raise a cup to invite the moon.

He and my shadow and I make three.

The moon does not know how to drink;

My shadow mimes my capering;

But I'll make merry with them both-

And soon enough it will be Spring.

I sing- the moon moves to and fro.

I dance- my shadow leaps and sways.

Still sober, we exchange our joys.

Drunk- and we'll go our separate ways.

Let's pledge- beyond human ties- to be friends,

And meet where the Silver River ends.
