Last night I dreamed of my Aunt Elsie\'s rhubarb patch - quite bizzarre - something I had not thought about for 60 plus years.So that\'s the fifties when I entered my teens.

Right On! Best to you, here the virus is surging again, as predicted, would you believe 75 of Trumps service personnel caught Covid! Itβs a shame! Hopefully Biden and Kamala , will turn things around! Wearing mask certainly helps, unlike Trumps crew!

.... You have placed some question marks so I\'ll feel free to give my answer, this truly is political laughter!
The first casualty of war is the truth and this spiritual one has gone on long than I or you!
We all have love in our heart but no vaccination can or will save us, we are in the highest point of greed and humanity needs to return back to nature!
Much peace and respect
Let\'s hope the world can find it, get off left or right knowing all things are Infinite!!

All hail A & B & S the C:
You do manage to pump this stuff out, don\'t you? Do you have time for anything else?
I no longer have to read the papers, no longer watch the news on TV - I just click on MPS and wait (not long) for this crack team to come up with the goods....
Keep on doing what you do so well.

I second Orchidee\'s insightful comment, surely - hopefully?
here\'s hoping for a better 2021 all the same (admittedly a low bar set by 2020, but at this point we\'ll take any \'turn\' of good fortune on offer I think)

USA ~ SEVEN KEY ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES ~ SEVEN RHYMING QUATRAINS
L. B. Mek said:
we can all but hope he has a few success\' before his tenure is over, though carbon emission\'s is now becoming a jargon term for environmental politics propaganda, there is noting less understood and/or more complex than Nature\'s weather, so assuming minimising carbon which in itself plays such a small role in the makeup of our weather systems: is just misinformed \'sound bite\' activism at its best,
please don\'t misunderstand me and excuse my judgemental tone, reducing CO2 emissions is indeed a helpful start, but still far from addressing the real issues our future generation\'s have to overcome,
as always an enjoyably informative and necessary write!

\'Hope you are right.....I mean Left...oh you know what I mean....?
Love all that you put in this work.
Just two things:
- Trump is/was not the real problem. He\'s just the pus on top of the carbuncle. No good only removing the pus, strong antibiotics and other interventions needed in addition.
= How do you bring the 70 mill or whatever Trump loyalists around? No use hitting them over the head with Global Warming (something about which I worry - although I personally will probably be out of here by then!) Have a go at that in your next communique.
Just one further thought: What the hell has a SOCIETY got going for it with a populace loaded to the gunnels with guns and a head of state who can only be in that position if he\'s loaded (with cash)?

L. B. Mek said:
but still facing the same blockading Republican house majority that dissolved Obama\'s presidency to the annals of the toothless!
so then, more years of deadlocked governing to look forward to I guess,
sorry for my negativity, it\'s just deflating that our best solution is democracy but our society is so willingly ignorant of the most basic of reality\'s facts that those in power manipulate and toy with our votes just as they did back in feudalism times...
dispiriting to watch humanity\'s cyclical fate and be powerless to convey to other\'s how absurdly easy we position ourselves to be taken advantage of: generation after wasted generation,
please forgive me for posting such an opinionated reply in your comments,

BRIAN HERE ~ Good Evening FAY ~ Pleased YOU enjoyed it. It is the last of a TRILOGY of *Free Verse Acrostics* on the implications and outcome of the very significant 2020 USA Prsidential Election. Because I was born in Liverpool (51st State !) and my Grandparents & Parents had many American Friends I started to visit the USA as a Teenager in the 1990*s. Angela & I hope to have visited (between US) all 50 States by 2030 ! I have a geat empathy with the USA so for ME this ELECTION was a Spiritual Pivot on which America would turn back again to Decency - Democracy & Deity ! Joe Biden is a committed Christian (Lifelong Cathiolic). Angela & I see the Election of Joe & Kamala as a very timely Miracle ~ AMEN
