Good write Gary.
I gotta make do with the local duck pond! There\'s a lot of variety there though. Herons too sometimes.

Window Washing

If being flippant I might say \'Some places may say \'Oh, we would like to consider Formal Confession, but we\'ve not got the cash to build the confessional Boxes\'. Doh!

Window Washing
orchidee said:
You seeing clearly out that window now?!
I know what you mean, as windows get smudgy. May as well wait until Spring-cleaning days?!
Erm, I can\'t say I\'ve been to Confession. Hellfire and damnation to me then? Argh! Erm, maybe not. lol.

Where’s that fine man now?
orchidee said:
Doh! So that\'s \'justice\' maybe. Setting up a \'sex pact\' then the guy breaks a leg, and she has to nurse him.

Tranquility

Good write Gary.
\'This too will pass\' said some famous one. \'But I don\'t want it to pass yet\' we may say. lol.

Tranquility
Doggerel Dave said:
Thanks Gary. \'Tranquility\' is the very word I used, together with a visualisation not a million miles from the one you supplied here, when I did my own version of meditation. Don\'t seem to practice much now, but my life was much more strife torn then....

Tit-for-Tat
orchidee said:
More chance of being run over by a bus than winning the lottery, prayer or no prayer?!
Dang it, I wish I\'d seen that No.7 bus coming! heehee.

orchidee said:
I felt led to write a hymn-poem on not \'praying it all away\' if we don\'t like what we\'re attempting to pray away.
I still pray certain things will or will not happen though. Erm, apart from some obvious things. Praying to win the Lottery? Hmm, some do! lol.

Saint of Faults
Doggerel Dave said:
Such a vivid picture you paint, Gary.
Evokes a similar feeling to a gallery Old Master.
You should know that \"past sins, rehashed, replayed; condemnable\" happen as memories to me sometimes now.
It is relief that I know I won\'t have the journey you describe so richly. Thanks for the experience though..

I expect you know that in the Protestant and some other views there is no purgatory. By the time of our final judgement, it\'s too late for purgatory or to do penance.

Brute Beasts (Barzelletta)
orchidee said:
Not a hideous \'team building\' session?!
Now - in some work programmes - how does one literally \'multi-task\'? Do one thing with left hand while doing something else with right hand? Doh!

Oranges
Doggerel Dave said:
I hope you don\'t do that too often, Gary. Gives me a headache.🙂
\"Angelus\" was easy - discovered it a prayer, so that covered the Spiritual.
But \'eye rhymes\' was new, and that lead me, via \"The Great Vowel Shift\", down one of the far too many virtual rabbit holes - a wearying but compulsive process....think I need a nap, now...

Good write Gary. Yes, a bit obscure.
Time to get the washing machine, or washboard, out?!

Neat piece, Gary, but the meaning is obscure: When I get the shits (real or metaphorical) no one comes running towards me - quite the opposite....

Our Dilemma (Villanelle)

in love, I too entrust
that humble love where all are equal, despite
our aesthetic differences or beliefs...
good write, thanks for sharing

Our Dilemma (Villanelle)
orchidee said:
It\'s the human race, isn\'t it? I don\'t think it\'s \'bad old days\' nor \'good old days\'. Nor present \'bad days\' nor \'good days\'.
Sorry about that tongue twister there - if you follow. But we can\'t improve on humanity by ourselves alone. I feel we need a God - some say \'it\' or \'god\' or \'a higher power\'.
If I think too much this time of the morning I will get headache! lol.

Tropes
orchidee said:
Argghh! The fatal moments when we consult \'Dr Google\' and imagine we have caught every malady under the sun! Sort of relating to your Verse 1.
Yes - as you say - preaching Christ a person, not preaching \'things\' cliques, \'give us your dough\' (money), etc!

“Just a Taste”
arqios said:
The first taste was at the Garden the second at Advent the third and final at Pentecost then before the great Throne the ultimate reckoning. Patience, magnanimity and compassion belong to the King of Kings 👑

Thorny Weed
orchidee said:
I\'m the rose between two thorn bushes. Or am I the thorn bush between two roses?
Though they have thorns too!
It could mean an individual rose and thorn, not bushes.
I\'m becoming a confused laddie here. lol.

Are you blaming Christ for the fact that the garden is now completely overrun by thorny weeds, Gary?
I enjoyed this having ignored any metaphorical sense.
