Thanks Fay for permission - I\'ll enjoy reading more ..... it takes years sometimes to stop living every one else\'s ideas of what one should be doing and it is so wonderful when you just let that all go. And of course we have to be ready for the disapproval that follows sometimes....

Sad tale of promise lost and promises broken. Love lost or... she is about to enter the most loving part of her life, a child in arms will attract the strongest love of all.
A sad story recounted here and is all to often a woman\'s tale.

IF YOU CANT BE GOOD BE CAREFUL
IF YIUR CANT BE CAREFUL
REMEMBER THE DATE & FACE !
GOOD EVENING FAY ~ BRIAN here. It happens and it is so so sad. You have a very fertile imagination (and female intuiton) in your poetic interpretation of the PHOTO ! In my experience I know of mnay Young Ladies who have been left holding the BABY. If it is an Accidental Pregnancy ~ MEN often opt fro ABORTION (£250 ?) and want to sweep the incident & the embryo under the carpet. But its different for the Lady especiaally if it is a long term (greater than five months) and she sees it as a living breathing BABY and wants to go full-term and then consider her OPTIONS. ANGELA agrees with Me on this ~ but it does not solve the problem. Its OK if she keeps the BABY or it is absorbed into the EXTENDED FAMILY as used to happen in the Early 1900\'s. But if I was a LADY I would opt for ADOPTON rather than ABORTION because I have always been PROLIFE ~ OK. Tthe PARADOX is that MEN cause PREGNANCY but never ever get PREGNANT ! Your final verse made me weep for the hunreds of Lovely Ladies hwo face a similar dillema this month !
Blessings & Peace & Joy & Love
Yours as always ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡

ANGELA HERE : Good Evening FAY ! I agree for the ROSE : its beauty of scent & sight is enough ! For us also it should be enough. Our personal BEAUTY in Presence & Love : Our BEAUTY in Art & Attitude. Each Human Being is born with a measure of BEAUTY and a capacity to be BEAUTIFUL in thought : word & deed. It is only a we share our intrinsic BEAUTY that we too can be *Beautiful as a ROSE* AMEN.
Thanks for caring & sharing !

Beauty in accepting the simple as it is. We complicated beings so over-complicate the world all around us. Defining, analysing, \'improving\' and messing with it rather than accepting we are in it. A harmonious simple existence with what is all around - it\'s just there for the taking.
An appreciation of a moments acceptance.

Yesterday while visiting a house I own, I saw all the rose bushes in full bloom - hundreds of flowers blooming - a truly awe inspiring sight
I paused to smell the roses
Thnx Fay

SOMETIMES FAY @ An auction we are captivated by a Painting or a Sculpture of a sensuous LADY ! Such as you describe. She triggers something in our memory of Younger Carefree days ! WE MUST HAVE HER ! I didn\'t set my limit in POUNDS but the limit set itself for me (Brian doesnt like me attending auctions !). When it was exceeded (it was a Painting) I knew I could not possess her : BUT I felt she had possessed me. So I was satisfied ! Memories of an Art Auction in Essex. Sadly my limit was £50 it was sold for £250 !
Blessings & Love
Yours ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡

In farms around the globe, this image you have so elaborately versed, is still repeated everyday.
Maybe the dusk is appreciated more, because of toiling day.

Thanks FAY for sharing a very Rural Idyll ! When I was a child I spent some time on a very rural Farm in Angelsy N Wales. Itwas just as you Pictured & Described it. Lines of laundry ~ Cats ~ Home baked bread ~ Owls & the Welsh GFather Clock ~ Fresh eggs and Home churned cream ~ Dogs & tired Sheep & New born Lambs ~ A 24 hour Day ~ EVERY DAY ! I guess nearly 30 years later ~ things are very different in many Farms ! Mind YOU our Friends ~ who are the Sons & Daughters of Farmers would seek no other Way of Life ~ and the Girls all marry Farmers ! Some seek to be Vets and some Managers & Ecologists & Environmentalists etc. But all within the Sphere of FOOD PRODUCTION & LAND MANAGEMENT !
Blessings & Love
Yours Brian & Angela 🧡🧡🧡🧡
