GOOD MORNING FAY : Its 8am here and Ive just woken up to a new DAY. Working hard on my reports & assessments for my 5 Trainees ! Thanks for writing a lovely Love Poem about ME ! I love my Victorian Dress and my whistful look as I gaze into the SKY just waiting & waiting for BRIAN\'s return.
Verse 1. If I was in Brian*s Arms : as we were on South Island : I would sleep each night : like a BABY ! Ecstasy repeated !
V 2. Could but hold BRIAN : Physically : once each DAY : My Soul would be at rest ! Destiny unfolded !
V 3. Time would indeed cease : if we we *physically* together again ! Paradise regained !

Thanks for sharing FAY : it gives me strength to survive til OCTOBER !
Blessings & Peace & Love as always
Yours as always ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

HI FAY : ANGELA HERE : Its 9am (Wednesday) here annd MAMA & PAPA are flying back today via Los Angeles ! It has been wonderful having them here & everyone has treated them like they were their MAMA & PAPA : We have enjoyed every minute ! Love the picture : Love CABBAGE WHITES : BRIAN uses them to teach His Students about the Life Cycle ! Egg - Caterpillar - Pupa - Butterfly ! Love your Poem it has great Form & Function !
SIZE :There is a scale of things : from the COSMOS down to the ELECTRON and MAN (H. Sapiens) is in the MIDDLE. God gave us the Capacity to invent Telescopes & Microscopes and see His handiwork in the very large and the very small ! All the living things you focus on Grass - Leaves - petals - Toads - Bees - Worms - Birds - Ants - Snails - Slugs etc and then smaller still to microorganisms ! They all have their PLACE in NATURE in complex Food Chains & Food Webs which keep the BIOSPHERE in equilibrium : AMEN ! The FOOL has said in HIS HEART *There is NO GOD !* Thanks for sharing & caring FAY much food for THOUGHT : AMEN !

Blessings & Peace & Love
Your Friend ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡
Please check TOOTHACHE : Thanks A !

SMALLNESS.
MendedFences27 said:

It is that \"Smallness\" that allows the rest of us to exist. Bees are endangered at the moment, and without them we all perish. It\'s the small things in life that truly matter. In a person\'s mind it is also mostly the small things that become keepsakes. \"Littleness\" does indeed \"feed\" the \"soul\" as Natures little wonders feed the Earth. A lovely poem, Fay - Phil A.

without the eyes of a poet and all associated skills, such wonders would go unnoticed, or at the very least, unremarked upon and then forgot.......... nice one Fay..... N

dusk arising said:

Heady things that we are, it is so easy to ignore the tiny world at our feet.
Around the patch where i live there are an amazing amount of small black spiders down there. Get down to their level and they are unmissable.
You took me to a similar place of meditation. So many weeds i should have dealt with.

A fine write and pic Fay. Snail-saving time now - damp weather, they come out of hedges, and try to cross the \'motorway\' - the pavement! More a bit later in the year though.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

We blame it on the SCRUMPY
Makes a CORNISH MAID all HUMPY !

Thanks for this FAY : Angela here its 9am (Tuesday) and the last Day with my Parents who fly to Los Angeles (USA) tomorrow ! We are going into TOWN today and they are treating me to LUNCH ~ AMEN ! It has been wonderful having them here with me in AUCKLAND !
This is a very cautionary : but alas oft repeated : Tale. Thanks for the GLOSSARY it does help to rationalise dialect POETRY which I love : especially recited. BRIAN always includes a Glossary when he posts a BURNS POEM ! When we spoke on SKYPE this morning He said he was going to post one tomorrow on TOOTHACHES with a Glossary and a Reading (not his own : but He does have a bit of Scots Blood : McLaren !) Love the poem ! Ive tried reading it our loud : I might try it at one of the Poetry Readings : There are Poeple from the West Country in Auckland ! Is that OK ? Love the PICTURE : Very Poignant & very Apt !

Blessings & Peace & Love
Yours ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡

Good fun read Fay, a young maiden of yore, Orchi and I probably new her well.

MendedFences27 said:

I\'m at a loss for words. Most of what you said I had search for, but could not find, and yet I got the intent of your poem.A maid went wandering inebriated, and
defenseless and ended up pregnant Yes? I loved the challenge, but I\'m sure many read this straightforward without blinking an eye. Wasn\'t it Churchill who said something about us being separated by language. Thank you Fay for a most intriguing
write. - Phil A.

Reminded me of our modified lyrics to that Tom Jones hit \"down the lane i look and there runs Mary, knickers torn and looking weary, She\'s had her share of the green green grass of home\"

So i can picture bawdy Fay at the tavern delivering handfuls of mugged ale to overfull tables as she sings the tale of Gormless Bess to an appreciative buttock pinching crowd.

Smile through each day Fay as every day is special.

CHOICES.
MendedFences27 said:

Love is always the correct choice. There is no life without it. Every day filled with love becomes a treasure, without it, life is misery. \"Wake up and love\' should be humanity\'s motto.
Brilliantly expressed, Fay. Loved it. - Phil A.

You look ahead to a dawning day and choices you still have, I hope that by the end of day I didn\'t squandered my choices away.
A very interesting read
