Naturally impressive yet relaxed about it!



By Stanley Collymore

The most intriguing and sometimes totally captivating

thing about the unpredictable vagaries of life are the

chance encounters which they present, enabling

one to occasionally, quite out of the blue

as it happens, come across persons

that previously were entirely

unknown entities to the

individual concerned.

Yet, in spite of the unfamiliarity associated

with such encounters, the instantaneously

thrilling, disarming and natural rapport

coupled with the effortlessly mutual

understanding that this unique

situation generates, itself

securely fused with a

consummate and genuine affability quite

clearly discernible on both sides of this

budding relationship, epitomize as

well what I both feel and know

that true and unpretentious

living is really all about.

And interestingly and honestly said

there can be no denying the fact

that these endearing features,

and many more besides,

you obviously have

in abundance

Samantha!

The Author’s Personal Tribute:

In a world where so many intolerable pressures, and of such diversity too, are unwarrantedly and quite invariably damagingly as well exerted on others who unthinkingly assume and even implausibly, in my opinion, literally convince themselves that they must flow with the tide of embarrassing inanity and even outright, rank stupidity is rather mindboggling to say the least; yet this quite preposterous conduct and the glaringly compulsive craving to please others, even those that the individual doesn’t really know at all and simultaneously to be some person other than one’s self happens repeatedly.

So it’s a most refreshing change and in the process an undeniable inspiration, I freely admit, to happily come across someone like you Samantha, who despite your having a complete array of the most endearing qualities that huge numbers of individuals clearly don’t have, and therefore can only dream about, you nevertheless are the personification of self-control and graciousness coupled with a selfless readiness to be both pleasant and helpful at all times. And very aware of this from the onset of our first meeting I’ve decided to write you this poem Samantha.
