Morning Mozart.
Dove said:

Beautiful, and I like the thoughts of music…. I think every note is important, the in between keeps you floating

Just Unbelievable!
Neville said:



You are indeed the master of this particular \'observational\' form of poetic genre Andy .. I previously got rid of my BMW because of the increasingly negative stereotyping that it attracted .. and of course the boy racers who so often tried to pass me on bends etc .. I find that Audi owner/drivers are fast becoming the same, if indeed they have not already overtaken the Beema boys n girls ... I now drive a Mercedes ................ Neville :)

orchidee said:

Good write Gold. Was Beecham referring to my singing?! lol. First and last, and a load of caterwauling in between.

Morning Mozart.
Doggerel Dave said:

I sensed the invigoration you felt,
Experienced your wonderful day.
Is there a day of yours which is not delt
with other than joy and hope’s shining ray?

Go for it Andy.

Was he maybe a born again Beema? I guess conscience can strike at the most unexpected times. I absolutely loved the video as well. Great write my friend!

Just Unbelievable!
Doggerel Dave said:

My prejudices challenged - how lovely:
I love this because my name is Andy:
When happenings occur quite radical,
That allows me to wax poetical.

Andy, I don’t know how you do this every day, but I appreciate it, am enjoying it.

Good write Andy. Cooeee! Am I back permanently? Hope so!

That Creation.
Doggerel Dave said:

Had to get the ice cream van out by eight.
This week I’ve really had a lot on my plate -
The Greensleeves tape finally had enough,
The fridge broke down; the week had been quite tough.

But the ice cream was excellent, Andy – I HAD some in spirit. Thanks.

Fay Slimm. said:

Worth waking up for though Andy - finished ice cream takes no note of time.

Ice cream was created from a dream! Well I guess all inventions are in some way or other birthed in dreams. :-)

Smoke Filled Days.
John Prophet said:

I remember 65 years ago I was at a Bruins hockey game with my dad. We were sitting up in the nose bleed section. I just remembered men buzzing around down below and a heavy smoke cloud hanging over all. Cigars and cigarettes everywhere. Years later taking my son to the same arena for a Celtics basketball game the air was clear and clean….

Smoke Filled Days.
Neville said:


I too occasionally hark back and hanker for a crafty fag (that\'s a cigarette folks) for anyone unfamiliar with proper old-fashioned English :)

Smoke Filled Days.
Doggerel Dave said:

Irony substitutes here for the smoke -
Hides the disaster that lurked in those times.
How was it I survived and did not croak?
I committed those self inflicted crimes.

A nice piece of recollection I remember too well, Andy.

Back To That Time.
arqios said:

Beautiful connection Andy, falling back in the fall and falling into caring and living with esteeming our surrounds. Thanks for the shared sentiment. /Rik.

A Wise Person.
Neville said:



A point exceedingly well postulated Andy ... Neville

Back To That Time.
Doggerel Dave said:

Never was such a time I’m afraid, Mate.
Know what you mean, and it’s nice to think so -
But respect was enforced, that was your fate;
Life was ‘nasty, brutish and short’……You go…

And anyway, in Oz our clocks are going forward – So there! 🙂🙂

(Agreed -situation crap right now...)

Fishermen\'s Friends The Musical.
Doggerel Dave said:

Envy is a terrible thing;
I’ve got a large dose of it here -
I need some consolation…..
And you don’t offer me a beer?

You are very lucky people - I love what the FFs give .

In the possibly vain hope you haven’t arrived there yet Andy, I give you Emmet’s Place. Here’s a sample:

Deeds Of Love.
Shetonya Latryce said:

Love it! I believe word is bond but more than that I believe it is what you do that leaves the lasting impression so I agree deeds are the best way to mesh in love and friendship.

Deeds Of Love.
Doggerel Dave said:

Words are cheap it’s said -
Deeds the better fare.
Yet words can destroy
So handle with care.

Even so, you have it at its core, Andy.

Cygnets At Rest,
Bella Shepard said:

What a wonderful walk you must look forward to each day. You are indeed fortunate to behold such a beautiful sight. Maybe we can learn something important from those swans, just to stop and be at peace with the world we belong to. A lovely write my friend.

Cygnets At Rest,
Fay Slimm. said:

A wonderful sight to behold - swans are such a gift to our need for nature in these days of indifference to life.

Cygnets At Rest,
Doggerel Dave said:

How do you know that one’s Daddy?
Mum out on the razzle dazzle?
Too many questions here Andy;
How does Your River run vertical?

Sorry about the picture being at ninety degrees.

Addicted For Life.
Paul Bell said:

Some addictions are good, and music sure is one of them. Though the neighbours don\'t like Pink Floyd at 4 in the morning, weird people.

Addicted For Life.
Doggerel Dave said:

Music then is the gateway to your soul.
Your preoccupation has served you well;
For I know you as a peace loving man
With an optimism no one can quell.

Stay strong Andy.
