Simple and pleasing, Fay.
\'Such a summer as this had buttons undone as heat crept\' - the excuse, the tension, anticipation - great!

Everything was so new and exciting for us as young lovers. The world became alive all those thousands of days ago.

And you captured all this with words which painted my vivid picture of special times. The clothes we wore, the music we heard, the language we spoke.

A really special poem today Fay for a has-been romantic like me. Into my favourites of course.

It\'s always struck me as obscene to capture and \'train\' a wild animal. The more the breeds natural existence is removed from association with humanity the greater the obscenity.

Your words today are very gentle with a subject i feel strongly about.

Very true Fay, I love raptors, there is a falconry near me and they do fly the captive birds but they also breed them a free them into Nature.

Human cruelty has no bounds, for we have used our might and our intelligence to tame even the fiercest of adversaries, robbing them of their magnificence and their freedom that we are incapable of experiencing. Your words are truly humbling.

Dedicated to birds in cages also? A silly question: (\'all creatures\').
I really had not given the situation of trained raptors much consideration before you made your argument...many thanks Fay.

Blimey, I\'m afraid to look in the fridge after reading that! Each time I hear a weather forecast I shall now imagine the metreologist forking through meringue for truths (TBH they might just as well be for all their inaccuracies).
Super picture - though it reminded me of a still they showed me from my last endoscopy.

OK so i\'ve had my fun. I returned to the picture and taking each verse in turn saw your words repeated in the image before me. Quite amazing comparisons and quite quite accurate too.
How creative a mind you possess.

I literally spent some five minutes
just dreamily gazing at that breath-taking picture
if you took that yourself, then I\'m genuinely jealous!
thanks for sharing, dear Fay

what a brilliantly philosophical interpretation
of the wisdom, imbedded
in each nuanced insight, we glean
of Nature\'s majestic brilliance, dear Fay..
thanks for sharing

A fine write, Fay.
Especially for one who\'s view is all is one thing happening.

dusk arising said:

I have pondered these things and more. All are seen from our sentient viewpoint but there is surely so much more going on. Communication is closed to us. The nearest we get is with our lovely companion the dog.

Lets be honest though, we barely communicate with each other. War and famine etc.

Your post encourages the mind to go where it may never have considered to trespass before. There fore encouraging one\'s mind to expand.... wholesome.

A different motif from you, much easier to absorb, and yes, I wonder, if others ponder, as we humans do?
Light hearted but very enjoyable
