A fine write B&A. But I don\'t trust to Blake on some of his religious/spiritual views. He can be somewhat eccentric.
Ahh, lots of Fidos. Pity they are used in hunting. Woof, No! says my Fido!

Ha nearly the same vibe today! All abuse is wrong we should all continue to use all our power to stamp it out!
Great stuff.
I\'ll be honest (as we always are) I chuckled when I read 200 years before his time, I get that feeling a lot. Lol
Always appreciated
Much peace and respect

If ever people ask me who I voted for I never tell them as it was those people who died for us to get us the secret ballot and I am strong believer in following their cause. Nobody,even Joyce, ever know which way I vote, but I DO vote.

Poetic Dan said:
I thought I\'d give it a go but once I realised if I read any further I would continue in your words to insult those that gave their blood.
I wonder who everyone would blame if ever vote was in!
My non-compliance is a vote of no confidence for anything I\'ve ever seen, over 10 years ago I started reading their manifestos, I would not waste my time like that again.
Theses old ideas will never work, thanks for the inspiration!
Always appreciated

It may seem like Laurel or Hardy choice . Or rather Cannon or Ball choice (arrgghhh, I used to dread those shows!). If enough vote Green, then...β¦.. they may get in?!
I of course (in my mad moments) voted for the Monster Raving Loony Party. Only cos I didn\'t know what MRLP stood for. Doh!
Fido is standing for the Dog & Cat Party. Vote Fido, I say!

BRIAN HERE ~ I am astudent of American History and sharing a THANKSGIVING DINNER in America with Americans showed to Me just how important it is in the American Callendar ! I am interested in Native Americans and pleased that every State now has a Native American Visitor Centre and that is an important part of School History ~ They have a rich culture ! Personally I felt food that was served was superior to the which we enjoyed on Christmas Day with the same Family at Christmas. Of course Christmas is essentially still a Christian Celebration and Thanksgiving Day is Secular (Multi Faith) and observed by ALL AMERICANS ! I was nterested in your comment that for your Family it is a special time to remember Members of your extended Familiy serving abroad with the Military ~ AMEN
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours

VOCATIONAL EDUCATION 𧑠ANGELA & BRIAN π
Poetic Dan said:
I\'m a jack of all trades but master of none, they couldn\'t see once I\'d leant the 3 basic skills, the rest was not fun. Best thing I did for me was just get to work, education is the key but still can\'t be done in the scales or volumes we wish to!
Great writing and very thought provoking for me.
Much peace and respect

VOCATIONAL EDUCATION 𧑠ANGELA & BRIAN π
ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Thanks UNSUB ~ The signs are that we will have BO JO with a working Majority after DECEMBER 12. He has promised to *GET B*E*I* done bt the end of January 2020* The sad thing is that B*E*I* was a cute WORD (compared with REMAIN !) and 52% of people voted for it without a clue of the IMPLICATIONS. We voted REMAIN ! Both Parties know that when implicated (it is the will of VOX POPULI) there WILL be a skill shortage ~ hence the emphasis on VOCATIONAL EDUCATION & APPRENTICESHIPS in both manifestos. I have put a POUND COIN in the swear box for mentioning *B* !

DRY STONE WALLS 𧑠ANGELA & BRIAN π A PANTOUM
Alan .S. Jeeves said:
I love this poem A&B. Where I live I am surrounded by dry-stone walls (even around my home), There are miles and miles of them. New dry walls are still built here and, of course, old ones repaired. I could go out tomorrow (weather permitting) and find people working on them. It\'s like painting the Forth Bridge ~ when you get to the end you go back to the beginning. (\"To make an end is to make a beginning, the end is where we start from\" ~ T.S. Elliot).
I would like to make your poem an A&B Fave if I may.
Ex animo, Alan

WINTER IS ? 𧑠ANGELA & BRIAN π A PANTOUM
Zuzanna Musial said:
I love winter although prefer warmer seasons. Our weather can be four seasons in one day. At times surprises with the quick change. Your poem is wonderful, although it seems that you prefer warmer weather like myself. There are positive things about that season. It gives rest to Nature to rejuvenate. That is why we have Autumn when all the leaves are falling from trees. Imagine our winters, the winters here are very long. Often lots of snow, but the fresh air is there, it makes a person feel good. Thank you for sharing your views and feelings about the Winter season...Great poem...Much enjoyed reading your descriptive verse....Wishing you a pleasant time this winter....Kindest greetings... from Zuzanna Musial

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Thanks RON for your encouraging comment ! YES WE found the juxaposition and such an iconic song (Simon & Garfunkel 1970) with Grenfell Tower moving ! The first two verses of BRIDGE was writen by Paul Simon (who were Jewish) as a Hymn. The final verse *Sail on Silver Girl* was only added when they got in the studio. It lacks the empathy of the first two verses. This explains why on this very challenging occasion only verses 1.& 2. were played !
Blessings & Peace & Joy
Love ANGELA & BRIAN
