Sometimes it is necessary
to reteach a thing its loveliness, to put a hand on a brow...
and retell it in words
and in touch, it is lovely
until it flowers from within,
of self-blessing.

You beauty!

And a _huge_ shout-out to the preceding Morrison government for getting this deal done and signed in April, less than two years after elevating our bilateral with the Indians to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
