Oh my, it\'s as if you had sourced the truth of why mother-in-law hated cameras. (But she would have loved photoshop).

I can\'t help but draw a comparison within my anti sectarian opinions of similarly exhibited behaviour.

A devilish poke at the falseness of paid for reality from you today. I\'m sure somewhere i have seen a portrait of samuel pepys complete with pox complexion, warts and all but one wonders if this was indeed \'prettied up\' for reward.

Yes, and sometimes the Patron appeared was painted small in a corner of the picture, and maybe even his/her little dog appeared too!

A beautiful poem Fay. It makes one want to walk the shoreline once again. But, alas, I made it only to the local river. A beautiful day it was, though. Thanks for reminding me of the pleasures of such a journey. - Phil A.

Good write Fay.
I was gonna seize the day too, but by the time I found out what Carpe Diem meant, it was drawing towards night-fall! Well, I kept looking through French dictionaires, and got nowhere, you see. Such is life! lol.

L. B. Mek said:

wonderful throwback, sad that even smaller farms nowadays utilise machinery, with menacingly clanging mechanisms that seemingly suck the life out of what ancestral heritage remains - of our once tightly grasped union with nature
meaningful subject, engaging writing as always

wonderful flow, with a strong message
if this was a song, I imagine someone like Cyndi Lauper doing it justice

Love-Light.
MendedFences27 said:

\"Love light\" conquers all, \"ce-la-vie,\" \"no one\'s to blame,\" \"ready to face any truth,\" seems a wonderful way to live.
I believe that Love is the strongest power in all of humanity\'s existence.
Your poem is a wonderful description of a potential way of life. If only all of us could sustain such an endeavor, this planet would be a much happier place. You raise many thoughts and ideas that warrant deep consideration. Can one endure all of life\'s tragedies and still laugh and smile and be happy. Thanks for this thoughtful and provoking piece. - Phil A.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

Thanks Fay - Angela here - its nice to have you back with Uplifting Odes two days in a row ! Yesterday you spoke of Changes and how the Pride of King Sun has to ineveiably give way to Queen Moon as Dusk gies way to darkness and the Suns unbearable Blaze is eclipsed by His reflection from Queen Moon ! As a FEMALE (but not a Feminist) I can relate to that ! Todays poem reminds us about the Power & Significance of our Own Individuality especially as Ladies ! I admire Brian for who & what He is and I respect & honour Him as the only Husband I have ever had or will (DV) ever want to have. BUT in our Marriage we are EQUAL but with different skills & gifts we bring to our Home ! I accept that when we start a Family - it is I as the Mother who will have to put my Career on Hold to nurture our Baby while Brian will continue to work to sustain all three of US - Esta la Vida ! Thats the Spanish Way as well as the English Way. Fortunately PHYSIO does not change radically every five years ! MAMA warns Me *TWO Bambinos takes FIVE Years*
Your Poem emphasises the importance of SELF ~ Awareness - Determination - Peace - Compassion & Freedom of Spirit ~ BRIAN is beginning to learn Im big on all those things ~ they are MY MANTRA and in the past - they have enabled me to *overcome & survive* doubt - despair & disillusion. However with Brian as my alter-ego we are both twice as STRONG ! Aint Marriage WONDERFUL ! We haven*t posted today but have a great Acrostic Ballad for tomorrow *LOVE OF THE HORSE* please visit ! We also have a Fusion which could interest you ! Its about Holidaying @ Home. You cant choose CORNWALL - but Devon has its charm & we are sure you will have a DEVON POEM to add. I asked DOVE to choose a State other than California ! We got a one word answer *HAWAII* ! Having visited we didnt blame her ~ AWESOME ! Thanks for all your very stimulating Poems ! Love your VISUAL - Thats ME al-fresco ~ AMEN !

Blessings & Peace & Joy & Love
Angela & Brian & Smokey 💛💛💛

Changes
L. B. Mek said:

A war cry: for mother nature,
for Female superiority (at the very least equality),
for that graceful Moon - with her guiding spotlight, for all lost to their dark corners of 3am introspections
and for Poetry, at its majestic - pulse igniting best:
\'faded velvet adorning a battle-vest\'
thank you for reposting, so glad I was able to discover this
a wonderful write, radiating with the full beam: of a perfect Sunset\'s brilliance!

Good write Fay.
I had a message that they were doing something with the server one day, here on MPS.
But - I can\'t seem to select poems for my E-book. It won\'t update any changes. There will be some strange \'hymns\' in it!

Goldfinch60 said:

Although t is a wonderful write Fay the arrogance of cats is so powerful.

But as a bird watcher I always refer to the nastiness of cats as for every bird a raptor takes for food a cat will take four hundred to play with!! As Michael has said - they need controlling by their owners.
