Here in the UK \'to spend a penny\' is to urinate. (you used to have to put a penny in a slot to open the door in a public toilet which is where the phrase originated).
So if you found a penny at least your pants stayed dry. Good to see you here again ACH.

yup, that belated realisation
when we\'re all gifted with limitless words
of wholehearted eloquence, only
those we need to hear us, are nowhere
to be found, so as-one we - look up, to the clouds
and whisper: all - that we hoped to convey
in that stuttering - goodbye
of our love\'s - final, surrender..
(such a poignant read, thanks for sharing)

A Dram Induced Dream or The Poet and the Emperor

Alas! Most dreams fade along with night, leaving the mind frustrated, and thus your recollection is even more entertaining

L. B. Mek said:

at least you completed your witty retelling of that dream, unlike Coleridge who once again, could only share an incomplete - masterpiece:

Happy Christmas from my Cathedral
dusk arising said:

Thank you Andrew Charles for your kind wishes. And my wishes for health and peace this season are sent back to you. May the celebration of christmas bring pleasure to you and yours.

I share with you the delight of the natural cathederals of the woodlands where the saints surround us and among all the wildlife present we come to terms with our very existence here. Truly humbling to a spiritual mind.

dusk arising said:

Sadness as if one were reaching for the last ever human touch, a speechless goodbye, grateful for that final comfort as one soul traverses the untold truth to beyond.

I was captivated within your words.

There\'s a saying, something like: \'Empty vessels make the most noise when tapped (or banged)\'. Not that I go round hitting \'empty\' folk! lol.
