Christine Goodman
London born, City of
Sydney living local with divine links past, present and future to India.
Wordsmith, poet, creative, sound artist, yoga & meditation teacher and
supreme lover of life on a mission to
spread colour and joy on waves of sublime sound and tapestries of words. Christine believes
that community is everywhere and loves to share the joy through regular sound events, workshops & retreats in Sydney and beyond: http://www.soundboundhealing.com. The poem emerged from a spontaneous encounter
in a Surry Hills Indian restaurant. She then walked around the corner and found
the Crown Street Artwork. What fabulous
synchronicity! It was impossible not to share the joy.
See Christine's complete contribution to Village Voices below:
I saw a woman -
a mother, a wife,
a daughter, a friend,
resplendent in bright orange
salwar kameez.
Without thought of
language or familiarity
I approached her and said
"You are SO beautiful!"
She looked surprised.
Her family paused
then seemed delighted.
Joy spread like wildfire through uncharted territory.
True Beauty has no boundaries.
