AWWWWWSOME LORNA ~ Love any film with Clint Eastwood and this (to my mind) is one of the most haunting & memorable musical intros to an amazing Film ever ! Love ARIZONA and the attitude of the US Citizens ~ everyone a CowBoy / Girl and the NATIVE AMERICANS are so so Iconic ~ Inscrutable & Proud ~ makes me want to be Cowboy in the 18th / 19th Century ~ with 1000 head of Cattle & a Gold Mine. Love your poem ! Mirrored my dream exactly ~ Hugs Brian @@@

Hi Lorna!
A super poem accompanied by a great video and pic!
That’s one of my husband’s favorite themes! Ennio Morricone’s music is infectious!
...and yes, there are some days that I feel that way!
Awesome posting! Thank you!

Lorna,
You’re so spot on with your poem! I totally agree with the message conveyed in your write...especially:
ā€œA pricier funeral is best
For one who has more than the restā€!
My mom told me to bury her in the backyard when her time comes!
My dad, on the other hand, insisted on Green-Wood Cemetery where his favorite maestro (Leonard Bernstein) is buried!
My parents were like yin and yang about many things in life!

Great choice of pic and video! First time I’ve heard that ā€œOliverā€ version. I liked it!

A BRILLIANT posting! Brava!

This verse says it all in these crazy times of materialism\'s allure - a fine write Lorna and I agree with every line ending with that very telling couplet.

My long box to be made from recycled egg boxes - don\'t we waste so much on unnecessary goods and aren\'t we all so very vulnerable. Adverts on telly are big turn off (among other subjects I\'d better not mention as I\'m probably in a minority on most of them) but am I subconsciously influenced by them? Probably.

Adverts on telly are becoming more dafter. What idiots even, would believe them, let alone sensible people?!

Flowers are nice to look at. At first I did not know why people obsess over gardens, but after see one once, now I know.

Just watched the video hilarious - it put me mind of Spike Jones playing \'Old McDonald Had A Farm\' - which always gives the biggest grin.

Oh Lorna do get well - but surely it\'s blue chickens which lay green eggs - or is it purple eggs - err no that\'s the yolk - whoever heard of green scrambled eggs? Love this little ode Lorna.

Good write and message Lorna. That song does want me to get up and rock but it would seem a bit odd to the neighbours this early in the morning.

I found this quote which may apply:

\"It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to talk and remove all doubt of it.ā€ ...

Lorna,
I wonder if it did drive him away? Lol

This little gem of yours is great! You just picked my genre of music for today! Now I have to convince my 95 year old mom to get up and boogie with me! 🤣
Listening to Thorogood’s song made me want to get up and boogie like many of his songs do!
