Yes - reminds me a little of my last trip to the Old Country. I don\'t think I will return now - which may be just as well, as everything changes...
Great to see you back, Michael.

So good to read your engaging words again Michael and view your impressive art work - I do agree that those verdant hills are the best medicine for \"man\'s construct\" and ever will be. Warmest of wishes from Fay

Good write and pic M.
I would not pinch these words, but could add them as a verse, slightly adapted, to my harvest theme hymn for today - if you wish?

a fun read Michael
not sure how we go about verifying
one historical \'fact\'
as being more \'factual\' than another
generally I assume, all information
has its accuracy decrease
with each forgotten second

Michael,
The first two stanzas of your poem remind me of a special person in my life.
The last two brought tears to my eyes.
The illustration is a poignant one…
for me.
For a few hours a day I stare in that ‘cup’ and contemplate about many things; extracting the best from the past and enjoying the present — while hoping for the best of what will be — one sunset 🌄and one sunrise 🌅 at a time.
Thank you for sharing your words…very helpful.
All the best,
Laura🌻

there\'s always two murky sides
in every story\'s, Tealeaf details
but how well, you\'ve served
this treat of poetic artistry
with such: outlined clarity..
loved everything, from seeing your name
on the screen, to reaching the final delightful letter
of your poetic inking, thanks Michael
(I won\'t ask
just knock-on-wood and hope
with all fingers crossed,
but I\'ll share these words
so at east you\'ll know, my friend)

\'Got the solution: Keep my illusions to myself and let gently declining memory remove them gently (works for me).

London Mayor increased Press office spending
by 26% in 2020
( https://www.guardian-series.co.uk/news/18149842.sadiq-khan-spends-26-city-hall-pr-johnson/ )
in the runup to elections, that he won: by a landslide...
despite closing an abhorrent amount of police stations
since 2017, to save \'8 million\' - from a budget of \'billions\'
and still promises to close more,
while stabbing figures and crime rates, rise: relentlessly...
(it\'s all a well coordinated dance of propaganda
and everyone knows it,
we\'re just too scared to believe it, because western society
is rotten to the core,
and we don\'t want to admit it)
