|  | The Ozymandias of Ghana I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: -Two vast and trunkles legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand, Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose frown And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things, The hand that mock'd them and the heart that fed. And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains: round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare, The lone and level sands stretch far away.
(Ozymandias by P.B. Shelley - 1818) |

I was especially happy to meet Mariam again - one of the ladies we interviewed last year. Many of you have seen and commented on the portrait of her that I kept on my VT homepage for quite a while. |

|  | Work took me to ATHENS in MARCH 2006 - hopefully not for the last time. VT members Galatea, Janetanne and Aggeliki were wonderful guides and hosts ! |
|  | JUNE 2005: an amazing second trip to Afghanistan. This is truly a place that has captured my soul... |
