Couldn\'t agree more mate. You may have got the impression in previous poems that I would love to return to tribal living where one person matters for the whole. And yes it is shaming to see what is happening. However, there is hope as there are amazing acts of kindness taking place too. For example, I made my wife a cup of coffee this morning. I am so going straight to heaven!

There#s a lot to be said for the wisdom in your words. Especially the last line.
But here we are in northern europe with the society which surrounds us today. That\'s the one we have to face and deal with. Fortunately there are many many good people out there.

That darkness may well be there but beyond that darkness is light and that will be there for you Dan just look for that twinkle in the sky and you will know that all will be well.

When i sit by the crashing ocean (not talking about south coast ripples) when i look up to a clear night skies quilt of stars, when i sit upon a small mountain beneath brilliant sunshine or threatening dark clouds..... i feel insignificant. What am i and all my worries, woes, hopes and dreams compared to the magnificence of what i am looking at..... i call that the great leveller...... i know you are sensitive enough to feel it (but i couldn\'t begin for one moment to think Donald Trump ever felt it). Then i reflect upon just how much joy the world as it is brings to me. How much i have to offer the world. How much i can communicate my thoughts to you Dan and others. You people validate me and we and your family and friends validate you. You and me, us and the rest of the people are not insignificant at all. We are an intelligent intermingling throng of people largely enduring the struggle to survive and feed our loved ones.... and to put a smile on each others faces.
And you do those things well don\'t you.... that\'s not insignificant.

Good fun write Dan.

Many years ago when I was the computer bod in a housing department we were getting a brand new system in and we had meetings every morning to talk about progress, we obviously had coffee and biscuits. One guy that came was the Computer Manager for the whole firm and I am sure he would kill anyone who ate any of \'HIS\' jammy dodgers!

Pink wafer now thats really posh
Back in the day for those who had dosh
And robin hood liked his lincoln
While King John ate his with stilton
Theres a biscuit for every occasion
But to be honest Dan
Chocolate cake is my persuasion!
Sorry mate!

Good write Dan haha

You sound like an angrier Walt Whitman in this poem, which is very interesting and fresh. Well done.

I always enjoy your vids mate and this one was a pleasure.
Yep, religion or ones faith or that god thing. Huge subject but i find it sickening to read the preaching \'holier than thou\' crap rolled out by so many. And what is so funny is that most of them belong to different \'strains\' of the same religion who have fallen out with each other and set up their own church. He he he they can\'t even agree among themselves.

What a superb video, those dogs love being out with you and so obedient.

Not absolutely sure where you are coming from in your words today but having got to know you through poetry i guess that whatever drifts your way you will tug it through the eye of the needle. That eye will be narrow and difficult some days but wide and welcoming other days...

Stay in contact with your mind.
