Prince Of Cool.
sorenbarrett said:

So true. I love music of all types but particularly blues and jazz. Chet is a great one. Unfortunately along with many others today his music is lost on the younger generation. Nice write Andy

Prince Of Cool.
Bella Shepard said:

I can understand your love this artist. Listening to his mellow sounds, it seems the musician and the instrument are one, each knowing the other intimately. A beautiful tribute dear Andy!

Yeah, he\'s up there for me as well Andy
this enthralling conversation between trumpet and piano from his quartet\'s \'soft winds\'
has always been a go-to for me

dear friend, thanks for all the great reads
and enlighteningly soothing music

Liebestraum.
Bella Shepard said:

I listened to this beautiful piece of music as I read, which made it even more delightful. You have excellent taste in music, and in words to describe the feeling that it evokes. It is a wonderful way to start the day, may all your days be filled with music.

Liebestraum.
sorenbarrett said:

I too love music that has the power to make or change a mood. Although we all have different tastes, it is hard to find someone that doesn\'t like some kind of music.

Liebestraum.
orchidee said:

All I get is \'dreams\' of love, never turned into reality. Fido won\'t let me have any love. Well, he lets me have love, but no ardour or excitement! lol.

A beautiful song, so powerfully sung, adds a wonderful dimension to this poem. When two people come together, as you and Mary have, it is a rare and priceless gift. Thank you for sharing this treasure.

Together And Forever.
Doggerel Dave said:

Don’t know if I can do this:
Declarations have been many.
I understand your amatory bliss;
Just enjoy yourselves and so shall it be….

Spring Approaches Haiku.
Doggerel Dave said:

How can you only hope it’s on its way
When you know there can be no guarantee.
Climate change (heard of it?) is here today
And so your poem now should be a plea….

Spring Approaches Haiku.
orchidee said:

But we have not started Winter yet, so my diary says. It starts tomorrow!
But it may help us keep our spirits up, in knowing Spring is on the way.
Feels Spring-like this week, with temps jumping about? We had, e.g. -10C, now it\'s +10C.
I took me gloves OFF. Don\'t usually do that until about April. lol.

Why Can’t We Always be Like This.
Rocky Lagou said:

Ahhhh!!
Omg that final line was literally legendary.
\"Does chaos bring us together?\"
So true in so many ways.
Like what is romance without the drama and hardships?
I think \"chaos\" balances the serenity of life.

Why Can’t We Always be Like This.
Fay Slimm. said:

Yes a sad state of affairs that our connections with others have to meet chaos before we unbend - - a well-penned reminder my friend.

Why Can’t We Always be Like This.
L. B. Mek said:

Brilliant!
(word distilling that most unhealthy element of modernity
where unity, is only deemed necessary
in times of travesty..
time was, someone could make your day
by offering a cheery \'mornin\'
or \'this darn\'d weather we\'re havi\'n\'
while passing-by or waiting
at that terminal or station..
now, its eyes warding-off any approach
assuming, everyone is a danger
to what little, peace
we\'re afforded in our lives
what a sad state, but hey
at least our pixel rates are getting ever more
life like, that heightened HD awareness
from behind screens
our future generations, are sure to be safe...
right?
I mean what could hurt us, behind
our closed doors)

Why Can’t We Always be Like This.
Doggerel Dave said:

Competition – an essential component
Which artificially constructs a base,
Upon which a powerful proponent –
Ideology keeps us in our place.

That’s why, Andy. It is beyond belief that people suck up to it other than in circumstances you relate.

Why Can’t We Always be Like This.
orchidee said:

Oh, I met an anti-social guy (did I? lol).
I said \'Hello\'? He said \'Hello? What do you mean Hello? What do you want? I will punch you on the nose for saying Hello\'.
Best avoid those types.
I made all that up! lol.

It shows our true nature\'s GF. Break the conditioning and voila! A perfectly nice human being appears.

Music In Life.
Doggerel Dave said:

All you want is music! music! music!
No worries Andy, you’re in good company;
You have many fans who attend to your pick,
And one of those just happens to be me!
