Less Trodden.
Goldfinch60 said:

Strange I was talking with a friend yesterday about life and where we will go and she has been on this earth longer than I have but she still always looks for those untrodden paths and unopened doors as the wonder that can be there is so exciting.
Wondeful words Fay.

So many crossed wires can be found in some relationships but once the electrician has sorted them out the power of love will shine through in all its brilliance.

Good Evening Fay - Brian here - Love the perfect Geometry (a circuit box ?) in the Form & Function of your electrifying (ELECTR) ODE ! I teach Physics (Electronics & Electridity) and your ODE (judging by the replies) seems to have flipped everybodies SWITCH ! In my experience a DIRECT CURRENT (Love Affair) seemd preferable to an ALTERNATING ONE ! After three years of Courtship our Love Circuit is still intact and has (so far) survived the High Voltage Surge of MARRIAGE and no blown FUSES yet from the resisitance of LOCKDOWN. However with the MORTGAGE & the ARRIVAL of SMOKEY we find we are having to put more BOBS in the METRE to keep the Home Lights and Fires Burning Brightly - AMEN !

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

A short circuit to a power outtage. When sparks fly, and theres so much resistance around the ohm. Watt can one do but reverse polarity. Even in an ac/dc relationship the voltage has to be maintained or it will lead to a terminal strip. Switched off.

Well you can see i\'m currently transformed by your capacitance for poetic circuitry.

Can\'t help but love bubbles can you. I have bought a bubble machine and gallons of bubble fluid to amuse the grandkids and what do we get.... lockdown grrr can\'t win.

Yes i was taken again by you to the sticky popping of bubbles on my face just after seeing my nose\'s amplified reflection drawing too close.
A wonderful summertime piece.

Wonderful words Fay, bubbles are so interesting to look at and into, so many things can be seen then all suddenly disappears and leave you waiting for the next one.

This is brilliant Fay. I\'ve never looked at bubbles in this way. Surely they fascinate the minds of children, pets, and now adults. I must protest though that you left out the tiny bubbles of Champaign magic. Loved this poem. - Phil A.

GOOD MORNING FAY ~ BRIAN HERE ~ Angela @ Work me Huse Husband & Smokey Minder but not for Long ! Next Monday I have to be back in College to prepare for a brief return by Students before the August (come she must !) break ! Becaus all our courses are based on continuous assessment they will all progres to the next year ~ AMEN !
BUBBLES are awsome and kids love them. Because of Surface Tension they are spherical and because th surfce refracts the White light into R O Y G B I V they are rainbow coloured ! Everything is a Childs life is ephemeral - so wen they burst (and disappear !) when you catch them - adds to their mystique ! Its interesting that with C 19 relaxaion we talk about *Inviing People into our BUBBLE !* Thanks for sharing

Blessings & Peace & Joy
Love BRIAN & ANGELA 💛💛💛

Beautiful poem Fay. I love poems of nature. This one rings true, as we would see geese flying overhead of our previous home during Fall and Spring. They would settle in nearby marshlands. Just a lovely poem - Phil A.

THANKS FOR SHARING FAY ~ Love the Pic & Poem. A Skein of Geese in flight & formation is an unforgettable experience ! Your POEM (as expected) elgantly describes the scene & honking ! I see & feel & hear it perfectly ! The silence (V 9) is as awesome when they have gone ! It reminds us that Makind does not OWN the EARTH ! We share it with billions of other living creatures !

Blessings & Peace & Joy
LOVE Angela & Brian 💛💛💛

Good write Fay.
I would rather experience the sounds of countryside. On a walk, I returned to a main road. Nosy motor-cyclists. Maybe two of them racing each other. I thought \'Oh vanity, making that stupid noise on those bikes\'. Not many about to see/hear them showing off.

It\'s been so long since i goosed! lol

A lovely reminder of something i haven\'t seen or heard in more years than i care to recall. Probably because i took it for granted back then. How the years cast a different hue upon the like now.

As before, I enjoyed the pictures conjured up in reading this.

It is so wonderful to see skeins of geese but the most impressive are to see murmerations of starlings, as in your picture, I have been privileged to see them a few times - wonderful.

Wonderful piece by you Fay. Exactly as it happens.
I have entertained several families of starlings (around four and twenty x 2) over the past month when the chicklings have been reared and now almost fully fledged. They will soon be gone now to join those in the image provided by you.

Oh to be a songbird, highly in the sky;
Oh to sing her sweetly song, oh to have her eye.

Ex animo, Alan

So equisitely expressed and so true. True love shouts when just the sight of each other makes the heart flutter, or when just holding hands send ripples up ones spine, and......

MendedFences27 said:

Of course there is silent-speak. Its a raising of an eyebrow, a roll of the eyes, a nod of the head, a licking of the lips, etc. They meet and never speak and live happily ever-after. To some silence is golden. There is a wavelength above audible that destiny enlivens when lovers meet.
What a great thought and wonderful poem. Fay you\'ve done it again.- Phil A.

dusk arising said:

Hmmm always was a bit of a dilemma for me, these speechless transmissions. I\'m asking myself does she fancy me as much as i fancy her... why isn\'t she waving a flag at me.... is it just my lusty ego saying she does.... and before you know it i\'ve realised i\'m too shy and chickened out of the whole thing.

Secret whispers? I must be in need of a hearing aid!

dusk arising said:

We are left with questions and a deep longing to find meaningful answers..

But there are no answers to loss, no answers to disappointments, no answers to unfulfilled dreams......

And still the stars look down upon us as some other couples walk along the beach. Beneath the stars we learn that we just don\'t matter in the great scheme of things, to sit back, relax and be thankful.

Beautiful words of life from you today.

MendedFences27 said:

Revealing a sad loss, yet ever so sweetly. Your poem cries for the oft wished for return to happier times, and bemoans the bitterness of loss. This poem of destiny\'s raw treatment of loved ones and the pain of missing them, rings like a warning bell to all who read it. Just lovely Fay. - Phil A.
