Pogue,

I have a favourite bench in the woods where I walk. To get there I have to climb across two or three fields, walk up a gully and there it is, surrounded by aged trees.

Where’s the song in that? Well it is a place of peace and solitude that I come to, often to create or write, sometimes to just hear the silence and learn from it. And, I was coming down the fields the other da when this song lit up in my thoughts!

It’s James Taylor singing Up On The Roof.

We all need a place we can go to where the world is left behind and we can create or learn from the silence.

Hoping you have found your place.

Wic.
