Sometimes it\'s easier to talk to strangers, later they become good friends. A lovely message.

Yes indeed and these strangers share our humanity. Each with their own likes and hates, pleasures and sorrows. What weight of life do these passing characters carry which we cannot see?

A great reminder that we are all precious individuals on this colony we call Earth.

Such wise words Andy - friends are but strangers we have met and now know. A lovely thought.

Love is such a beautiful thing, one of the best blessings that God could give us is love especially when you find your other half, the one that truly makes us feel complete and that there\'s nothing missing in life anymore,you and I have found that with Dion and your lady

Exactly. I feel that most people get turned off by the idea of poetry because of the ways they were introduced to it. Schools make it seem complicating and dull but I hope that a new light would be shed on the art that is poetry!

Not necessarily settling down as an \'oldie\' (who am I calling \'oldie\'?! lol), but finding love, contentment, satisfaction, etc in life. A fine write Gold.

spilleronsheet said:

A very different subject today dear Andy
Well I have mixed feels over Shakespeare
I did like Julius Caesar
But Romeo and Juliet I found it too cliche
So kind of neutral to him

Bella Shepard said:

I was not exposed to Shakespeare in high school and came to the bard as an adult, so my experience is a bit different. I had the luxury of choice. While my ear is not a tuned to the English of his time, I have managed to get the gist of the stories, and have found some story lines that reverberate today. I love the words, and the beloved actors who have spoken them. I have taken my granddaughters twice to see Shakespeare in the park and it was something we could enjoy together. Shakespeare is certainly not for everyone. And you are right, the best way to turn people off of something is to force feed it to them. Now ice cream, that\'s a different story. Maybe if you\'d been given 3 scoops of chocolate with Hamlet it would have been different. Good Write dear friend!

dusk arising said:

As a victim (joking) of secondary education i was not priveledged to having the bard rammed down my throat. All I know about the chap and his works are the scraps which have come my way and been pushed away by me rather quickly. Macbeth was on the TV recently and I decided to indulge, to see what i was missing. What a load of twaddle i found myself enduring. It wasn\'t long before i changed channel.
I\'ve encountered people who love the stuff though one comes to mind who i think was rather in love with the idea that they should be perceived as a bard lover rather than the real mc coy.

I was definitely not a Shakespeare fan in school but wouldn\'t mind seeing a play now, just not gonna get out one of his books...lol. Except that one poem, \"(something about) a summers day? Though art more lovely and more temperate.\"

Michael Edwards said:

I\'m with you - I never understood it then and still don\'t. Would love to see a play in modern English but the purists would be up in arms and the storey lines (bit like opera) are so silly that I doubt if ever I would still be in the theatre for final curtain.

orchidee said:

Good write Gold.
We had Chaucer in his olde language. Very difficult and frustrating, with no translation.
But I read The Canterbury Tales later on, with the old words explained, and it was enjoyable.
