The use we make of the present
determines the outcome of the future
Covered by threatening shadows
we walk in the custom of ghosts.

Good couplets Michael, especially the first one - when will they ever learn.
When will they indeed - thanks Andy
A fine couple of couplets, and pic M. Have we run out of 'c's now?!
All gone - it's a sad world with no 'c's'
Aww, and I wanted to say more. I will have to say: A fine xouple of xouplets xonveyed with xlarity and no xonfusion and...... now I've run out of 'x's, and the spell-checker's gone into overtime!
There's a surplus of 'b's' at this time of year - you bould use those instead. Mind you they are expensive and you bould get stung.
Thanks MIKE ~ CARPE DIEM ! Brian !
Cheers Brian - cram in all you can!
The couplets are lovely and the pretty little flower world is captivating Michael!
Thanks Lorna - this is a little ajuga - not the best of photos but I'm running out - must get in the garden with the camera.
Ajuga is a great standby! Simple and lovely just when we need it most! And the leaves afterwards are pretty too.........
It certainly is - this is the purple leaved one and I have a great variegated variety which is lovely but slower to increase.
The custom of ghosts - a haunting line indeed. Joking apart - very clever phrase.
Mankind's unrelenting obliviousness of the direct result of their actions. History repeats itself because humans never learn. A sad tragic truth of humanity. Pretty flowers. I've never seen those. I'm going to have to start saving your pics. I don't think we have those here.
