Moon is for poets a boon,
Your Moon poem is nice,
Moon is for night a gift,
For Sun a celestial chum!

Protecting Moon.
Doggerel Dave said:

Ah! The moon, a dry piece of rock,
A base for space exploration
Neglects the world’s population:
With poverty it’s just a crock.

Let\'s get real, Andy...

Good write Gold.
We were on the moon, you and I, before 1969, to welcome the first astronauts there.
Did you leave me there on the way back to Earth with the astronauts? Did you all leave quick cos of my singing? lol.

Walking To School.

I like you grew up in those times walking and later riding a bicycle to school. This brought back those memories.

Walking To School.
arqios said:

Walking to school was one of the best things. At one stage we lived across the road from the back gate of the school and at times would plead with the guard to let me in through there instead of walking around the block to the main gate.

Nice words Andy. We all Iive on the same rock, don’t all live in the same world. Sounds like your world is a pleasant one.

Fay Slimm. said:

Oh yes - -- those were the best days when we walked in the streets and to school which for me was a mile away and with no fear - - the song you chose says it all Andy.

Walking To School.
Doggerel Dave said:

With such nostalgia I can but agree.
And what, do you believe, has caused this change?
Is it the weather? Rain can sometimes pee
on people who produce more kids - how strange…..

Only a smooth single malt could compliment the after rehearsal and the companionship of a lover, that you have so poetically penned here.

I’ve never heard of Auchentoschan
Much less spell it – syllable count is out.
Never mind; you just send a bottle, man:-
I’m no bogan – I’ll tell you wot it’s all about….

A fine write Gold.
So Mary didn\'t invite me, with me water to add to your whisky, before ya got home?! lol.
I read of something where they DID add water to their tipple. Something in the 19th Century.

Still at a quandary about not being able to be there on the 3rd. But vicariously join as I had been in the choir since I was 5. It\'s a whole experience creating music together.

Fulfilment of Life.
Dr. Soma said:

Life is a journey of fulfilment, it\'s true. But this fulfilment comes after a span of struggles. I have been struggling for a long time. But still, I didn\'t reach my destination. Sometimes I feel tired or become puzzled about this journey. But I cannot quit this. I have no more choice but to accept it.

arqios said:

The togetherness of life’s journey is not an idea many understand, espouse, or promote actively. But I agree with you on this Andy, wholeheartedly.

Fulfilment of Life.
Doggerel Dave said:

Nothing wrong with having a happy life;
I reckon, hard as it’s been, yes – me too.
What of others – in all manner of strife?
Just remember we are the lucky few.

Your comment Andy, that with which I could agree, would read : ”When life is good, enjoy it.

Crowns4Christ said:

That\'s really all that any of us should do,enjoy it,it not a race of who gets there first or who has the most ,it honestly about a fulfilling and happy life that was worth living ,you know that you have led a happy life,if you can reflect back on your life and not want to change a thing

orchidee said:

You\'re free of that competition of job seeking now. It\'s a horrible thing - having to trample over others; \'what about ME, I need that job\', etc.
There\'s a lot of bunkum about preparing CV\'s, job applications forms, etc, I think.
And saying we\'re the \'perfect candidate\'. Don\'t they know, only you and I are perfect? lol.

And It Rains.
Bella Shepard said:

I just love your tribute to rain! It always holds a fascination for me. I love to pop open my umbrella and be part of it. The whole cycle, circling back to the beginning, is beautifully described in this lovely verse. Thank you!

And It Rains.
Doggerel Dave said:

I asked the rain to go away….
It did, makes out I’m a liar;
But won’t stay there by end of day
And does an Arnold Schwarzenegger.

It is one of the cycles which sustained life on earth.... Good \'un, Andy

(But for how much longer?)

Has the rain always been wet over the millions of years we\'ve know it - us two?! lol.

Thank you Andy for your refreshing outlook to rain. - - a journey worth taking is that of one raindrop

arqios said:

And rains, and rains, and rains, and rains. It\'s been raining the whole day for me.... hasn\'t stopped. Hadn\'t seen the sun today! Put there is poetry.
