Terrific poem, great use of historic and modern comparison. Hand-wound clock, really? Wow! Is this the original station or has it been expanded over time? Loved the poem. - Phil A.

Well done today MICHAEL ~ I consider that the Painting & the Poem should always be symbiotic and you really do deserve a star today ! I did some research at Leicester University a fine City and still a fine Footy Team ! Love the poem and your use of half-rhyme ~ a lost art ~ especially when combined with disciplined meter ! Please check my RISPETTO ~ BRIAN

This painting is so very good and the poem complements it superbly. Thank you Michael for sharing them both with us.

What a fine picture Michael. Forgive me for not paying sufficient attention previously - I hadn\'t realised you were illustrating as well as writing.

These are a fine double act. I like them much.

THE UNKNOWN MAN
MendedFences27 said:

Rumor has it that this is a terrific poem for one who can barely scribble. Seriously, and it is a serious piece, also truthful and exposing a common blight. Why do people persist in rumor-mongering? My American dictionary describes \"leant\" as a British word, but my spell check has never advanced beyond the sixth grade. A great poem and some very entangled scribbling. Loved it. - Phil A.

I can just see this. It is true that the more one is a mystery, the more people want to gossip. Great job Michael with both postings.

You pen a picture of what gossip can do to a sensitive nature in this poignant reminder dear Michael - a perceptive write and compelling read.

THREE SMILES
MendedFences27 said:

Great fun. I\'m inclined toward number three, trash mail Why worry about disposal of trash, why not prevent its generation? There you go, and don\'t get me started on roundabouts, we call them rotaries. You take your life in your hands getting around one. - Phil A.

Thanks MICHAEL ~ Love the smiles to balance some of the very sad poems we get on MPS ! Love the painting and the mini~roundabouts (like a dinner plate in the road) also cause me to smile. If I\'m feeling frivolous I sometimes I drive right over them ! Yours BRIAN

Brilliant love them
Michael, the litter one
Made me chuckle
I don\'t know if you\'ve
Read my poem
\" mysterious brown mail \"
It was a bit of humour aimed
At the ridiculous amount of
Junk mail we get.. all adds
To the litter problem. If you
Haven\'t read it, please if you
Find 5 mins read it and let
Me know what you think..

Absolutely love the second one. Wish I\'d written it. Didn\'t realise you could be so wicked. Excellent, keep it up.

Good fun write, the one about the litter really resonates.

The pub on the corner looks like it may serve a good pint.

MY PLACE
MendedFences27 said:

How do you do watercolors without a water supply?
Nice little poem about a nice little place, where two artists hang out, the painter and the poet. All I do is write and my place is a mess, much like my mind. Loved it. - Phil A.
