Some of those tribute acts are amazing Andy. Your poem tells me you had a wonderful time. When I listened to Move It, I couldn’t help but get up and dance:)

Awesome Andy. I\'ve always loved that sound of the guitar instrumentals the Shadows did, especially \"Apache.\" Great poem about your experience and looking in that rear view mirror. 🎼🎵🎶🎶🎵

I remember those years they were my teen years as well and the music was great. I used to save my money to buy LP\'s and drive my parents crazy playing them. They put the record player in the basement but to be fair they were somewhat open minded and even liked some of the music. Thanks for the memories

Well if you wrote this some time ago, I do hope you utilised your spare Saturday time constructively, Andy😊

As for Bella\'s exhumation of that word - you can wear it with pride.

Thank you for the poem, the video, the fun iof all of it. Your comedic poems are classics, and I felt there must be a technical for them, so I googled and found
\"paraprosdokian\". No joke, it\'s a real word. \"A paraprosdokian is a figure of speech in which the latter part of a sentence, phrase, or larger discourse is surprising or unexpected in a way that causes the reader or listener to reframe or reinterpret the first part. It is frequently used for humorous or dramatic effect, sometimes producing an anticlimax. For this reason, it is extremely popular among comedians and satirists\". You are the king my friend.

I can imagine several other images less holy that he could have painted but we will leave that for another day. A great story that brought a smile and that is the best type of poetry.

Many a man scoffs at the thought of being a romantic. But love for one woman will be his biggest weakness, while also his greatest strength. 🌹

A message that many need to hear. I do believe in giving up on a method once tried that doesn\'t work but not on the search for another to accomplish the goal.

Unitarianism: the \"church\" where you can believe anything EXCEPT the Gospel of salvation through faith in Christ.
But Ralph Waldo E. is still a cool poet !

sorenbarrett said:

I too feel that religion is more of a problem than a gift. Even the symbol of Christianity supposedly defied the religions of the time and as far as I remember never organized a formal religion simply using his followers to spread his teachings. A write I can identify with Andy.

Teddy.15 said:

It brings war and hate, I believe we should all take faith in what we believe in, and would never take away the beliefs of others it\'s just my own reflection and observation that I as a non believer believe. lol I shall now go back to Limbo. Brilliant subject dear Andy, peace and love dear friend. ❤️
