\"\"Can you hear them? No, as usual, you can\u2019t hear them. We can hear them. Hear them still, even out here on the other side of the world. Perhaps not as loud, perhaps not as obvious, but they are still there. Come out, come out and play, come out come out and find us\u2026we promise, as we always promise, that no one will miss you, no one will even know you are gone.<\/em><\/p>\n

Come to the bottom of the garden.<\/em><\/p>\n

We envy you. Those of you who walk through the world swaddled in that type of unawareness.<\/em><\/p>\n

You\u2019re still looking at me like I\u2019m crazy. I\u2019m not crazy. I just have my eyes open, and my ears.<\/em><\/p>\n

And I can hear them.<\/em><\/p>\n

And perhaps this year\u2026perhaps this year it\u2019s time to go with them.<\/em><\/p>\n
