KISS ME HARDY
Goldfinch60 said:

In that battle where he fell
He could not get up and yell
So the words were then misheard
Kismet Hardy was the word.

Good fun write Michael. There is a theory that Nelson did in fact say \"Kismet Hardy\".

Michael, I could not have said it better myself! Seems to me the USA are regressing back to the days of the wild west. Guns should be made illegal. Period.

A true gem of wisdom you have produced here sir! Begs the question why do so many lives have to be lost before the inevitable talks begin.

On a lighter side, no point in banning guns - its the ammunition which kills.

TRUMP is still on the THRONE
And he will not dent HIS OWN
No extra BOBBY ~ but a big GUN LOBBY
The result in FLORIDA shown !

Thanks for caring & sharing MIKE
There are 326 Million Americans
There are 326 Million Guns
Draw your own conclusions !

Yours Peacefully ~ BRIAN

Michael - my town had an infamous school shooting (Newtown) but it made no difference to the NRA. There is a violent streak in this country (US) that is sick beyond redemption. I truly believe if we had a coliseum, they\'d offer us killing games for a month to celebrate.

WHERE ONCE IN TIME I HELD DOMAIN
dusk arising said:

This read like a winter seasons reflection upon places i had known, life i had lived, peering dreamily over a cold, so cold landscape of the past. No bitterness, no regret, an acceptance of how life has changed me, and moved on. A little dark, a little melancholy. Quite beautiful. Into my favourites.

WHERE ONCE IN TIME I HELD DOMAIN
FredPeyer said:

Yes, Michael, this poem is \'a tad sad\' (great expression!), but exciting as well to think that one day we (our souls) will be able to visit that \'domain we once held\'! Beautiful language as usual!

WHERE ONCE IN TIME I HELD DOMAIN
Laura🌻 said:

Michael,
This write is brilliant
in its entirety!
After reading it a few
times, the last stanza
flooded my thinking!
It resonates more than
it should...especially
with the elderly and
those who give up hope!
I see it and hear it when
I visit the nursing homes
and the rehab centers!

~Laura~

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks MICHAEL ! Whether you\'re a MAN or FISH (love all the sculptures !) as one gets over life ebbs and the Glory diminishes and the river of time flows relentlessly. At 35 I\'m still in my PRIME and there is the question of marrying (ANGELA ?) and raising a Family. As far as work is concerned I am still on he WAY UP ! Head of Science ~ VP and then perhaps PRINCIPAL ! Without ambition we stagnate ! But having said that one also sees how one\'s DOMAIN can disappear ~ I\'ve seen it happen and it is NOT NICE ~ A Friend of mine (45) recently suicided off a Motorway Bridge because his WORK DOMAIN disappeared ~ Leaving a grieving WIDOW & three distraught Children ! Thanks for sharing ~ BRIAN

Very good dark write, the imagery is wonderful, a picture painted with words.

LOVE IS >>>
myself and me said:

Love is simple, easy and straight as this yet no so simple, easy and straight to have.

LOVE IS >>>
FredPeyer said:

Yes, love is all that, Michael, and much more like sharing our joys and sorrows, watching that sunset together, getting wet in the rain together, and.....letting the other one drive the car without any backseat driver comments!!!

FredPeyer said:

Dancing is a way of expressing yourself, same as you do in your painting and writing. And judging from how you paint and write, I think you have the potential to be an incredible dancer!

Ancestry: My family tree goes way back to before there were humans on this earth, to my ancestors on that far away planet, the generations born in the ship all the way to arrival on earth. There is some indication, not entirely clear though, that some of your ancestors arrived on the same space ship.

Thanks for scaring ~ Yours BRIAN

dusk arising said:

Ha! Adam and Eve indeed,.. you\'re a bunch of youngsters..... my family can be traced back to when they first slimed and wriggled their way out of the ocean..... Bournemouth i think it was.
I really like the series of pictures you\'\'ve been using recently.

Got it Orchi:


Biological evolutionists keep getting it wrong
When they say we’ve evolved from primates
Now I’ve been telling them all along
( and the argument never abates)
that in fact the apes evolved from us
and the truth was ever thus!
