Do you believe this??? A shiny day I was sitting in my balcony and reading local papers, I came across to an article, which was about a kiwi painter, living in Northland, far away from Auckland about 4 hours, named Toki Aram... I got excited more and more, by looking at his picture on the paper and some of his works. He was nice looking face, white hair, deep smile. I couldn't hold my breath, I jumped on my telephone and dialed the number that was on the paper. A very friendly sound answered me. Yes, He was Toki Aram! I started asking him questions and got these answers.- Irish in origin, Aram is his artistic name, he is using it just to keep his promise to armenian couple from Australia, who helped him to sell his works in an exhibition, under one condition: You must sign the name Aram, as a rememberence of one of armenian International writer's, Saroyan's, who have a book named ''My name is Aram'', and you are looks like that guy... Toki Aram finished his story telling me that he has already read all the works of Saroyan and he knows lots of thing about Armenians... I was surprised, he was surprised and we became a very close frinds on line. Almost every week he was calling me just to read his new poetry to me, or to tell me something new about his novel. After several months he came to Auckland to see me. We had great time together. He is my best friend now, although he is in 60's. Now I'm trying to visit him in his place, where people can only ride horse, watch the whales and eat from their garden... Interesting, isn't it? This is what can Saroyan still do! -------------------------------- Dragon P.S.Hope you understand my English
