I read this a few times and it got better each time I read it. To not be afraid to make changes. To accept mistakes are lessons to help us achieve better things. But to grasp change and not stall it. To make life it’s greatest adventure
Wonderful poem

Do you know, after reading this piece, i\'m getting all enthusiastic. If only that damned wind would stop blowing i\'d be out there repairing my fences and building the shed that needs to be built.
Yep, you\'ve done it.... got me all rowsted up and ready to go....
....... but it\'s raining now as well.

Blimey.... to think how language matured over the years... in the parlance of the sixties this would have become \"Come and get me big boy\".
But am i in a quandary over which is the most romantic? Nay, forsooth, thou hast cast a spell upon which to tarry whilst the very warmth therein pervades my breast.

Alan .S. Jeeves said:
Greetings Fay, a wonderful and brave write as we are taught to avoid composing poems themed on daffs (Wordsworth! follow that). You have, though, succeeded here.
\'Seven golden daffodils
Gleaming in the sun;
To light the way of evening
When day is done.\'
~ from a song written by Lee Hayes and his sister Fran Moseley in 1957.
When I first started playing guitar in the early 1960\'s I was ready to give up the ghost and abandon it. Lonnie Donegan recorded this song and I just had to learn to play it. I never did give up and the last time we (as a band) played \'seven daffodils\' was yesterday.
Thanks for the memory,
Ex animo, Alan

\"An absolute hoot!\"
Makes you feel grateful youre not a little rodent type creature out there in the cold dark. I shudder at the thought.
I often see these beauties hunting above the lit up M5 nearby. Nature adapts to our changing world. As i was retiring to bed the other nite my outside light clicked on as i approached the front door, i opened it to see a lovely sleek fox trotting down the road outside - in the heart of the city.

BRIAN HERE ~ Thanks for sharing FAY ~ beautifully penned wit a Betjemanesque flair for rural description. See Ireland with Emily ! It brings to mind preaching at the Gospel Meeting on Sunday Evening (6:30 to 7:30pm) in Rural N Ireland. It always rains in NI ! They all arrived (At 6:25) - soaked but in their Sunday Best - they had come to the Ecclasia - The House of God. They sang the Hymns with reverance and none of them slept during the sermon - on The Prodigal Son ! I closed the Service @ 7:25 and by 7:30 most of them had deoarted - no Tea & Irish Scones. The retired Folk who tidied the Chairs & collected the Hymn Books etc and locked up the Bretheren Chapel explained that the majority were Cattle Farmers and need to attend to their Beasts even on the Lords Day ~ Amen. As in your Poem I was impressed with their devotion on a cold & damp evening and especially the fact that they had trned out Booted & Suited & every Sister with a fine Chapeau fit for a trip to Buck House. Of such memories are our lives forged. I was staying with one of the Congregation and we did get our Tea & Scones and a nice bit of Ham with fresh picked Irish boiled whole new potatoes !
Blessings & Peace & Joy
