The costs are increasing all the time,
I am wondering if I can afford to die!

(Not my problem though, the kids can just chuck me in My River).

dusk arising said:

Wrap my body in a carpet roll
and bury me deep
in a 6ft hole

Dontcha spend no money to see me off
told ya what would kill me
was this tickling cough

Why does it have to be so expensive to die? I honestly want a cardboard box or similar and a hole if i can (nutrients back to mother earth) or burn me if its cheaper.

You hit the nail for us older fogies today.

THE DREAM - THE REALITY
Suresh said:

No matter how passionate but ...
- when one first awakes
- after a smoke
- a garlic or whatever
and so many more

I gotta go hygienic

..but passion is passion, it makes us all sub-human

Really enjoyed the reality

The true circular economy very well expressed Michael.
The backbone of this wonderful country of ours... gone but NOT forgotten

Always ruunin ooutta bread me mam was..... an \'ovis dun\'t taste like it uused tu neevah!

Took me back to living in the mining community of Nottinghamshire..... pit head baths/showers saved the tin bath regeime but the houses were there with smokey chimneys and stained brick.

Well written compact story within a poem taking many a reader straight along memory lane.

Full circle indeed Mike - - your flow of atmosphere shows there was and is no ending to the rigid requirements of living with miners.

Age brings the humour of accepting fallibility though passion will still reign.
Or is that rain?

Doh! I was about to swoon, then the second verse came along! lol.
A ghastly thing is, e.g. \'An affair in Eastenders\' is advertised. Just don\'t let us see any details - no bed scenes - *shudders in horror*.

I think the passing ships made me feel a sense of sorrow at their still and silent lips

But that is because everything reminds me of ode on a Grecian urn lately

Beauty is Truth and all that

A thought provoking eloquent write
