Fools Paradise
Jul 15 2017
What a treat! I’ve just spent a week with my original Fooling teacher and mentor, Franki Anderson; playing, swimming, writing, laughing, eating, wondering and wandering in Franki’s Cornish Fools Paradise. I feel refreshed, revitalised and ready for my next round of summer schools. Bring on Advanced Fools School!
Fools Paradise
Under Franki’s open, curious gaze,
I remembered
To be kind
To myself.
Swimming in the still quarry lake,
I remembered
To let go
To what is.
Alone in my sweet little caravan,
I remembered
To keep coming home
To myself.
Watching irrepressible Kerstin play,
I remembered
The vitalness
Of reckless abandon.
Listening to soulful Marianne sing,
I remembered
Our power
Is in our sensitivity.
Jumping in the raging Cornish waves,
I remembered
There are much stronger forces at play
Than me.

My summer schools are all booked up this year, but my Autumn workshop programme is taking shape and nearly ready to be announced. Watch this space or sign up to my newsletter (at the bottom of each web page) if you're drawn to playing with me.
