Thanks for sharing FAY ~ such a omnicompetant Ode ! The Countryside in Cornwall : Essex : New Zealand is replete with sounds especially @ Dawn & Dusk when 21st C Cacophony is more silent ! But these place specific sounds tell you exactly where you are ~ without words ! We all live near the Coast and your third stanza reprises the Sounds of the Coast ! Softer in Essex than Cornwall or Auckland more SEASIDE than SEA COAST ! Thanks for amplifying the sounds of Natures Wordless Voice. Great poem to recite !
Blessings & Love ~ ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡

Ribbit! You brought to mind the quiet of woodland with a gentle roar above as breeze plays through the tall foliage and the creaking of a tree trunk as it remembers the need to sway. Musty damp aromas fill the air.
All taken for granted in my youth.

this is such an incredibly well crafted and poignant tribute to an an obviously much loved friend..... the fact they were a poet in their very own right, makes these words even more pertinent..... beautiful indeed and truly so......... Neville

A fine write Fay. Reminds of \'Do we have proper rain?\' Or will it be \'decisive\' rain, not the drizzle or mizzle?!

HOME BREWED WINE ! Nectar of the Gods ~ well perhaps sometimes ! It stirred many memories for your readers ! Like all Human Beings from time to time I am often bequeathed a Bottle of Home Brew ! In my experience most are impotable and deteriorate (or explode !) with time. Being a Chemist I have two ways of rendering such beverages potable & useful.
1. I can distil them (illegally ?) which produces neat ETHANOL (Alcohol 100%) which can be used in cooking etc !
2. I filter them through a water softener or a Column of Alumina (Aluminium Oxide) which removes all the \"Bitter Principles\" and renders Jungle Juice ~ Blander but much more potable ! Angela\'s PAPA is a Wine Merchant (RIOJA) and we often visit the Vineyards and perhaps more than anyone ~ We know that WINE MAKING is much more than a BLACK ART !
Love through Poetry ~

Beautiful write Fay and it brings back so many memories. I used to make wine from the collected fruits of the countryside. I can still see my kids faces as they said \"Oh no, we\'re not going out collecting elder flowers again are we Dad!\"

A fine write Fay. They\'ll shoot me though - I keep adding water to their tipples. I tell them it saves them money, cos it will last longer, but they don\'t see it that way. They just spit out the diluted tipple with a \'Bleeuurgghhh!\' lol. There\'s no helping some people. heehee.

Captures the innocence of childhood which also applies (in my case at least) to little lads as well. I used to love roaming in virgin countryside with my Dad who would point out the different wild flowers and birds - magical times.

Beautiful. All those lovely things we took for granted as children are now rosey memories to be savoured whilst they still shine in the corner of our minds eye.
Lovely pic too.
