Yes, these wee gems of wisdom must be a devil to dream up. But i guess if you are above a certain age wisdom pours from your pores as you pause before your poor paws begin to type.

The poetry of a peaceful passing into whatever follows.
Oh that we all may meet the great unknown with such poetic grace.
There is no sadness evoked within your words, but the beauty of this time of life\'s completion is radiant.

THANKS UNCLE MIKE ~ I love EPIGRAMS ! My fave is 2 which highlights the oft transience of the written WORD ! Its like MPS however erudite our ODES ~ Jonathan only allows 2 day exposure MAX (unless its a FUSION). I feel even my most prodigious efforts are like : DREAMS WRITTEN IN CHALK ON STONE ~ AMEN. Loved the PASTEL ~ KOOL ! Yours as ever BRIAN !

And - doh - Miss Berles went through such a gate, and got arrested. She did not see the \'No Trespassing\' sign!

A fine write and pic Michael. What\'s that funny \'ú\' in the last one? An accent has appeared over it? Maybe it\'s pronounced \'Eh-pon\'. (I\'m talking rubbish now).
Did your finger slip to the \'AltGr\' button? That what I use for, e.g. \'blesséd\' to get lines to sneakily rhyme.

Good painting as well - I wonder what is through that gate.
It reminds me of my daughter\'s degree show, there was a charcoal drawing of a path down an alley and the path turned at the end, I have always wondered what was round that corner. I can still see that image some thirty years later.

Thanks for this one (PIC & POEM) Uncle Mike. I love abstract & minimalist Art : always (for me) very evocative. Us Ladies live in a \'Throwaway Charity Shop Bubble\' so clothes never get really old anymore : even our Grannies wear Jeans and T-Shirts which say GROWING OLD DISGRACEFULLY ! I like the metaphor in your elegant Poem of us growing OLD like the Severed Threads in a much worn and loved Garment : AMEN ! Please check todays Poem : Blessings & Love from Auckland ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡

A fine write and pic Michael. You wearing out? (or is someone?). You gone all frayed round the edges? A worn-out carpet? Are bits of you falling off? (if so, which bits? swoon).
I should be falling to bits, seeing as I\'m as old as at least 1066!

Michael,

Glad all went well and you’re home! I had a feeling you’d be posting as soon as you got home. Very happy your pen and art are not taking a rest. However, make sure that YOU do!
Love the colors in the beautiful collage!

All the best...

You will notice, and Fido would bark at me anyway, that I spelt \'public\' very carefully. Spell-checker would not notice the difference though. Ooh!

Oohh nice collage too. An artist at a show does lovely nature/animal pictures. At the last show she did some in felt-work. One of them was Best In Show, as judged by the public. And why is Mr Public always called Joe?!

Best wishes Michael. You missed my singing. What? You wanted to miss it - as everyone does?! That would certainly add to any pain you may have - pain of mental torment, I mean. heehee. Did Miss Berles visit you in hosp?

Should have mentioned - a first for me - a collage - not something that has previously appealed but this worked out okay.

Michael,

Great haikus!
Love the geese!
It looks like one of them is left out of the “conversation” or is bored and leaving!😉

All the best to you!
