Speaking of Palm Trees

It is good to know the truth, but it is better to speak of palm trees.

Arab Proverb

I admit to being a bit of a pack rat. I see something I like and save it for the right time and the right place. Years ago I bought tumblers made of recycled glass because I liked their design of palm trees with birds flitting about in between. But they stayed on the shelf when we lived in Cairo. Somehow they didn't quite fit with life in the big city. Now they suit perfectly the ambiance of our Luxor setting and are well used. I just wish I could play the flute in order to sit under a palm and imitate the glass' shepherd.
