A fine write Brian. You gone OUT? Will you \'get your coat\' as they say?!
I\'m gonna sing Goldie\'s song now:\' Up, up, and away!\'
Me singing will make anyone feel DOWN! lol.

STEPHEN HAWKING ~ An Acrostic Sonnet Tribute
Fay Slimm. said:

Amazing what Stephen\'s fine example did for those whose disabilities confine them to bed or to wheelchairs - as ever his mindful humour and determination carried him through the challenge of achievement and despite years of gross inactivity he travelled the life he chose - a wonderful tribute to a great man - thanks dear Brian.

COLONISING MARS !
Goldfinch60 said:

We cannot get this world right so we are now going to ruin another one. It won\'t happen as we are being watched all the time and being laughed at by serious space travellers.
Never forget that the the first words that Neil Armstrong said when he walked on the moon were \"They are here!\".

COLONISING MARS !
orchidee said:

Thanks Brian. I notice in some James Bond films. They are going to start a \'new world\' or New something. But they forget that it is the very same people in the \'bad old world\' that they hope to be successful in their \'New world\'! Don\'t make sense. eg. Why did they go to the moon in \'Moonraker\' with outwardly physically perfect human beings in the spaceship? They were the same people inside, in their hearts/souls/spirits!

ELECTRIC LIVING ~ An Acrostic 8 6 Sonnet
Laura🌻 said:

Mio Caro Amico, BRIAN...
(il tuo poema è elettrizzante)
Your poem is electrifying!
I hear so much from my
mom about how good we
have it today. She relates
so many stories about her
parents and grandparents
living without electricity and
running water! Amazing!

I could write a thesis on what my grandmother grew up with in the teens and 20\'s! (yes she is over a hundred) Very good conversation starter. I couldn\'t live without electricity! (with the exception of camping) Sister Christina

ELECTRIC LIVING ~ An Acrostic 8 6 Sonnet
Fay Slimm. said:

Changes are features of more civilized living or so they say - - I loved coal or logs fires when the family gathered in cosy togetherness in days gone by - but must admit the computer age has me addicted to what is known as the electrically -smart technical world.

Goldfinch60 said:

Times certainly have changed, when I first started work as an analytical chemist back in the 60s the lab had one electro-mechanical calculator. If you setit to divide something by zero it would clatter on no stop, we had to turn it off completely.
The first computer I saw was housed in a building twice the size of my house!

ELECTRIC LIVING ~ An Acrostic 8 6 Sonnet
Michael Edwards said:

I can recall gas lighting in older houses being converted to electricity back in 1960 - look at us now. Electronics are now the guiding force. My car is keyless, automatic start, no hand brake and a host of gadgets. But still I have to twist my gut reaching for the seat belt. Some things never change

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks LORNA ~ Spring does come later in some Northern States ~ but we love New England in the FALL ! Wild Flower Meadows are common in South England and very beautiful. There is competition for space among the plants ~ but the flowers always crowd out the weeds ! Spring Hugs ~ BRIAN
