Austanspace: They Come to Build a Wall Between Us

Wednesday, June 22, 2016

I've posted this song before, but it's been on replay in my head all month and I guess wants to be here again. Don't Dream It's Over.

We know they won't win.

Happily, I've built many gates as well, which can be opened or closed from either side. The most useful key is agreement, but too often we forget where we put it.; Thursday, June 23, 2016 12:42:00 AM

And hopeful thoughts.
Herbaceous borders and gates suit me much better.; Thursday, June 23, 2016 1:59:00 AM

Ah yes, Crowded House, previously, the Finn brothers were in that band named, "Split Enz". Quite the poignant, timely song. No walls, only bridges.

Have a peaceful, hopeful weekend.

Have a terrific weekend.; Friday, July 15, 2016 1:34:00 PM
