Was you with us M. when Gold and I landed there in 1620?
Is this similar to \'Good Morning\' and the reply \'What\'s good about it?!\'

I too may be in trouble with this response!
It was probably great before we English landed on its shores in 1620.

Michael,
A most entertaining write!
I had fun reading it!
Imagine...if you can...
an Italian-American trying
to read all of that! 🤣

I did enjoy trying to! My husband was hysterical!

A beautiful picture! A London pride indeed!

I love CRS and we hear a lot of it in ESSEX cos we\'re near the SMOKE (London) ! What bamboozles Foreigners is that we don\'t use the RHYMING WORD but the other one ! Thus ALANS = KNICKERS from ALAN WHICKERS ! I have friends and colleagues who often slip in a word in CRS so I need a few words ! Thanks ~ Yer ole CHINA ~ BRIAN PS ~ You forgot to post the LONDON PRIDE picture !

Love your painting Michael (of course)! And I do love the \"skeletal\" winter landscape - it opens up the sky doesn\'t it.

A COUPLE OF COUPLETS
Laura🌻 said:

Michael,
The irises are very beautiful! They remind me of my very young years when I lived with my grandmother for a while! Her garden was full of them! She would let me pick some of them for the vase I kept on her dining room table!

Great couplets...
I guess in our own private kingdom, we can afford to live with our head in the clouds!

orchidee said:

a fine write and pic Michael. Was he living in cloud cuckoo land (the second couplet)?! And where is Cloud 9? Why everyone want to live there? Why can\'t some live on Cloud 10, 11, etc?!

WINTER
MendedFences27 said:

I like this one. Michael. The passing of Winter into the nether regions. Only to be lurking among the dark, dank and drear, waiting to blast us once again with frost and snow.
In your picture I see the skeletal bones, floating among vapors purple (dark), green (dank), and white (drear). There are eye sockets and an almost completely missing face. Perhaps Winter is a faceless season? Unrecognizable at times. Liked it a lot. - Phil A.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

THANKS MICHAEL ~ Depends which HEMISPHERE you\'re in ! ANGELA has just woken up (on Sunday) and loves this because 1st JUNE is the first day of Winter in NEW ZEALAND ~ she does not expect any snow in Auckland but hopes to visit Mt Cook (S Island) for some skiing ! Love the poem & the painting ! We have had a talk on OWLS this afternoon at the Bird Sanctuary and your \"abstract\" (L to R as orientated) clearly shows a nest of fledglings (with open beaks) ready to receive a meal from MUM ! Thanks for sharing ~ BRIAN & ANGELA

WHAT AM I ?
Nicholas Browning said:

I can\'t say what you are aside from a seemingly and assuredly talented man with his doubts, as each man has some. I used to ask myself that question quite a bit, gave up after a while though haha. Wonderful little work sir. You indeed have many talents, some we know and some we do not. I\'m sure you\'re worth much more than you believe. Each person is their own worst critic after all.

Thanks MICHAEL ~ I can SYMPATHISE but not EMPATHISE ! Scoucers (Liverpudlians) as you know are all EXTROVERTS in Bed (1 to 1) and out of Bed ~ in crowd ! Its the IRISH in our JEANS !
