This is a deviation from your usual writes, and I have to add that I like it.
Let\'s have more of your disreputable past, Andy. 😊

And - heck! I was spared a living torture. Not kissing her at Christmas under the mistletoe. Phew!

A fine write Gold.
In one job, we were OK until a new manageress came along. Then it went downhill. Your poem is probably all the things she is NOT.
Some nearly went on strike - not paid properly - but were only a smallish Company. She wouldn\'t have cared. She would not even leave the building for a Fire Practice. We don\'t care if she had burnt up! That\'s how it was.

No need of church when you have your river, Andy.
The picture you painted - I hope you didn\'t mind that I came along too.

defiant, last line

You just hit on something dear to my heart. I hear the music and I can\'t help but move. I rarely get to go dancing anymore, but nothing stops me from dancing, by myself, in my living room, to music of the sixties. Only problem is that hips and knees have aged, where the brain has not followed. Thank you for this little trip down memory lane, a great write!

Andy, You need to put your sage advises together and write a self help book instead of scattering your pearls of wisdom around here (not suggesting you stop!!)

that\'s why insomnia
is such an evil, hindrance
to our whole wellness
and sleeping pills, are such a dangerous slippery-slope
to addiction\'s or unhealthy over reliance\'s, doors..
but I have found powernaps
are a great way to get your accumulative sleep..
as for laughter
get it wherever you can
laugh till you can\'t breathe and be grateful
for each chuckle..
(such a great read, Andy
and so, so
timely and relevant)
thank you!

Something very \'Fishy\' about the weather that night Andy.
There was a less newsworthy hurricane in early 60\'s Nottinghamshire which nealy saw the end of my brother and me when a huge brick chimney was blown over and landed on the roof above where were were in our beds. Had that roof been less robust it would have ended my poetry there and then lol.
A great poem from you today. We brits are known for our \'talking about the weather\' and boy do we have occasions to talk about especially this month.
