“You are never too old
to set another goal
or to dream a new dream”

~ C. S. Lewis
Novelist, poet and academic
Born on: 29th November 1898

Porte Ponderings:

I dream of peace
for the Palestinian People in Gaza.
For the genocide to stop.
For them to be able to not only survive

but thrive in peace.
Without the need for retaliation

or retribution.
Guns and bombs no longer needed.
Plenty for everyone.

Hospitals to heal
not as bomb shelters.

No more fear
Only Joy.
