Around The Universe On Wednesday!

Words are flying out like
endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
are drifting thorough my open mind
Possessing and caressing me
Images of broken light which
dance before me like a million eyes
That call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a
restless wind inside a letter box
they tumble blindly as
they make their way across the universe
Sounds of laughter shades of life
are ringing through my open ears
exciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which
shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe
Sounds of laughter shades of life
are ringing through my open ears
exciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which
shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Strawberry Fields Forever!










STRAWBERRY DAIQUIRIS
This popular drink was created , as the story goes, by a group of American miners in 1905 in a bar located in Santiago, Cuba, which is close to a beach that shares the name of the mine "Daiquiri". Originally served in a tall glass, this pungent drink remained in Cuba until around 1909. The drink spread it's wings when a US Naval Officer had a taste and whisked it back to the states with him. He took the recipe to the Army and Navy clubs where it grew in popularity. In the 1940's alcohol like whiskey and vodka were rationed by the military but the Good Neighbor Policy of Roosevelt allowed for easy aquisition of rum with free trade to Cuba.
