Perfect Celebration
well I went back to bed after being up early
then I was surfing my news feed
RACIST TRUMP
In Holland memorial to Black soldiers removed
Trump thinks he is a Master Race
in fact a Total Disgrace
The Chinese and the Irish built the Railroads
Time to Impeach Trump
BECAUSE Everybody hates him
he is a collection of diseases and hate
held together by sticking plasters
SO
anyway when I get up a bag of the cleaner's old clothes
was on the wall outside
designer stuff maybe 15 or 20 years old
despite living with me all these years
she is still the same size
so I went outside to encourage people to them
a black guy happened by, so I accosted him
I said the bag of clothes would be perfect
for early teenagers
So I showed him what was on top
a very fancy jumper and other stuff
He agreed to take it for his kids
now it turns out he was from Botswana
where the elephants are from
and I was called elephant behind my back
CkD and all that
But the events unfolding had a better tale
you see my big daughter at University
one of her crew is from Botswana too
Patrick was his name and I said that's the same
as the hero in my story
So I showed him my site and said
5700 plus pieces of writing
3,000,000 words
and today I've reached a benchmark
100,000 readers in Dec 2025
so Patrick who has also done some writing
will be busy for a week having a read
I also told him of course he could write
If I could, then so could anybody
But then the Padre Pio flip
you see Patrick's sister in law was in Japan
I said Manga Michael Casey I'd like to do next
so please tell her all about me
so with dream and a connection
from Birmingham to Botswana to Japan
and Padre Pio in his grotto in my garden
lets see what happens
and it is Hogmanay today
so as Patrick admired my beret
On impulse I gave him a Tammy
which I had hanging on the back of a chair
so a black guy in a Scottish Tammy with an Irish name
a saint from Italy was starting a chain reaction in Japan
for the Elephants in Botswana to Trump about
Bread crumbs scattered on the floor and I'm just
pecking at them
I'm not really a writer, I just glue everything together
and this is what Faith and Love is all about
