Polyester Pants
Doggerel Dave said:

That\'s the second Villanelle you\'ve put up here recently, Gary - and the one I did was quite hard to do. Good for you.
Just..not..sure.. about.. polyester.. pants. .........Making me feel quite hot and itchy....
Getting quite whimsical in your........... mature years?

Thank you Gary, you have inspired me to hunt for the polyester lurking in my closet. Polyester will rise again!

Without the Vow
Doggerel Dave said:

Perhaps not just young people, you know, Gary - divorce has been around for a fair old while....
Relationships change..people change..all is change.

Understanding
Doggerel Dave said:

Yes,Gary - I recognise that feeling too. Thanks .
Since we have that freedom, it should be within human capacity to do something about making the world a better place.

Understanding
Fay Slimm. said:

Yes indeed Gary I can readily understand that a tender heart on seeing suffering in even one little animal can never really forget it - - a moving account of what cars etc can wreak on creatures just crossing the road at perhaps dusk - - - what a world we have now of armoured monsters that care not for what maybe impeding their progress . A well written lament for all innocent victims of road-kill.

‘Word of Faith’ Ladies
Doggerel Dave said:

A difficult subject, Gary and one I have absolutely no intention of making commentary upon. As much because I am a male, than any other reason.

Thank you Orchidee - yes, I love writing to the iambic pentameter! I equally love writing to other traditional forms as well, time permitting, that is, as I have to allow time to learn them. Cheers!

Nehushtan
Gary Edward Geraci said:

IMO Religion continues to form people morally in ways secular society simply cannot. I’ve read of moral IQ too…Clearly, there are ample examples of the consequences of low moral IQs in the world today (and yesterday). Peace.

Nehushtan
Doggerel Dave said:

Come on Gary – you can do better than this. You surely know that someone can have and live by a moral framework without the necessity of a religious faith.
For some perhaps it is better, easier to have faith and adhere to its moral guidance – provided, that is, they do adhere.

You know those iamabic pentameters (IP)?!
I think it\'s 10.10.10.10. metre. In which case I\'ve been using those IP\'s without knowing it! Nothing to do with Internet Protocol IP\'s though. lol.

A fine write Gary, thoughtfully done.
I usually do AABB, but cannot carry it on through every verse, i.e. I start a different set of AABB for every verse.

Thinking Caps
orchidee said:

A fine write Gary.
Now, some places don\'t think. They leave the thinking - and everything else - to the Vicar, and just spectate!
Went into one church. It was Remembrance Sunday. But semi-darkness before Service started. Felt like yelling \'Anyone alive in here?\' They would have chucked me out. lol.

Thinking Caps
Doggerel Dave said:

(How much time do you think I\'ve got, Gary - had to look up \'absquatulate\' and still not perfectly sure.... 😊 )
Enjoyed the first stanza; \'good sense\' is oft times found lacking in the world - that much we can definitely agree on!

Spacesuits
orchidee said:

Good write Gary.
Ahh, \'aliens\' as in \'y\'all\' way of speaking: ail-yens?
Yep, there\'s aliens here on earth. It\'s E.T. But didn\'t he go home?! lol.

and if he’s lacking something then he’s not God but something less than God
orchidee said:

\'He rides upon the clouds...\' Well, that\'s more than we can do! I tried it once, as The Birdman, but failed. lol.

Hey Gary - is this about the Flying Spaghetti Monster (which it would seem has the balls) or an imposter? :-)

Three Flowers for Mary
L. B. Mek said:

(a write of actualised, humane ideal\'s
that anyone should be able to relate with
devoid of differences in theological preferences)..
\'such a beautifully worded depiction
of that oh so rare tradition
where communities - proactively, nurture
that sanctity of togetherness and communion
between one stranger and another
with the mindset of a soon-to-be neighbour
anchored, by their laudable translation of unfiltered love
in their chosen belief system;
uniting, rather than allowing - those diverse elements
within any society: to triumph, uncontested!\'

Three Flowers for Mary
orchidee said:

Good write Gary.
I was reading of B.C. times (before Christ) and their many gods.
In one way, what else could they do? Christ had not come yet, though they could have some notion of a \'one God\'.
