Only One Angel

‘Only One Angel’

“If you want to know what pulls me through

I have only one angel, …that one angel is you”

‘Only One Angel’ – Jimmy LaFave (Texan singer-songwriter)

‘R.I.P “Brown Dog” ‘

Pictured, a cross on a tree, beside a country road I walked along in the Hokianga this week.

Who, or what, “Brown Dog” was, I do not know.

Two gleaming halves, mirror images.

They drew me in, these minor miracles, when I visited the building yesterday.
