Am I A Romantic.
Accidental Poet said:

Many a man scoffs at the thought of being a romantic. But love for one woman will be his biggest weakness, while also his greatest strength. 🌹

Is it grass cutting time already, is it ironing time again. Subcontracting comes to mind, now, where is that girl.

Bella Shepard said:

Dear Goldfinch, First of all this is a wonderful poem. If you\'ve turned into a romantic be proud. Secondly, \"He Ain\'t Heavy\" is one of my very favorite songs and it\'s hard for me not to play it over and over. Thirdly you\'ve given me an new author to explore. What a wonderful day!

I always find it\'s all about the read.
In saying that, I usually give a book twenty pages to grip me, and then it\'s gone.

Andy, I\'m in the same boat. I love to read. Right now I\'m reading the biography of Carl Sandburg by Penelope Niven. Excellent read. I enjoy your poem. Thanks for sharing. Oh, and your song, too.

(really like the last two lines Andy
warm, romantic tones
reflecting the sunshine of Spring
we\'re currently, revelling in..
a lovely read!)
btw, have yet to read her books would you recommend one for me to try first
as an intro to her style..
(although, I\'m not into authors
that make their characters suffer dramatically, endlessly
as merely a tool for their regurgitating plotlines
unless it\'s done cleverly
with humorous sensitivity
like the Notebook or great expectations)

dusk arising said:

Well I dunno, seems you\'ve come over all strange.Maybe it\'s a side effect of bashing coloured balls through hoops or something. Just make sure you don\'t start liking music or walking alongside flowing water.... people will start thinking youre human.

Being Kind.
Bella Shepard said:

It should be the easiest thing in the world to acknowledge another human being with a greeting. People have done it to me and I have worn a smile afterwards. I have given it to other people and they have given it back to me. Kindness is a reciprocal thing. If we\'re all givers, we\'re all receivers, the law of averages.

Being Kind.
Crowns4Christ said:

So very true Andy,a little kindness can go a long ways, perhaps change a life, great piece Andy

Being Kind.
Doggerel Dave said:

As you so rightly point out Andy, a smile ‘does not cost anything’.
And that is precisely the point.
But what would mean ‘so much to many’ is the helping hand society can provide with a roof over their head and services they need provided by circumstances (read Governments) which are different to those which allowed you to exist in the position you do today.
