North America

Not having lived there, North America was generally ‘off the radar’ for the du Plessis family.

 

Both Paul and Margaret had made business trips from the 1980s onwards. But the visit to California in December 2009 was different. It proved to be a wonderful introduction to the Alo family, to California with its variety and great natural beauty. Poetry was Paul’s way of expressing both delight and appreciation.

 

The Pink Moment looks back on other special moments for Paul and Margaret. As always the lyrical style is intertwined with spiritual exploration as in He’ll Be Back.
