You can\'t earn respect behind a screen or phone, you have to meet and get to know people for respect to be there, very valid write

Respect.

Yes Andy the world changes and not always for the best. A world of social distancing, fragmentation, frustration, a breakdown in values, resentment of power, where authority is viewed the enemy. A good read Andy

Good write Gold. Yes, not even a thank you or \'ta muchly\' - sometimes just a grunt.

To respect unconditionally is the goal… old or youth… if it is righteous then respect follows… great poem

Because people no longer care as we now live in a non face to face environment, we live in a world behind screens and even young parents of today give new born babies i-pads in their buggies rather than sing a sweet song. I have worked with young children all my life and still do, I see the parenting differences, but that just my personal opinion. 🌹

Ode To An Olive.
Bella Shepard said:
I have to say Andy, this poem is a most sensual delight, your love affair with the olive. When I was a child I was always fascinated by the pimento in the green olive. I didn\'t like them then, but love them now. I can also rememeber putting black olives on my fingertips and eating them one at a time. It make me laugh to see my grandchildren doing the same thing. A great write my friend!

Wordsworth - poet of nature.
He worshipped nature.

If your poetry has metaphors , imagery similar to Romantic poets, Really you are a great poet , born poet

If I were an olive I would find this poem quite seductive. As it is Gold it enhances my appetite. A fun read nicely done

So you\'ve never busted a tooth on one of their stones? All that salt and your blood pressure...
However you have improved their image here, Andy.

I really enjoyed your poem—it\'s playful and full of personality! Olives are my favourite too, so I loved how you captured their taste and charm so perfectly.

Great wisdom here Andy and the key to happiness for rich or poor. Gratitude an element often missing in the human soul. Loved it

Your poem captures a simple but profound truth—that happiness isn’t about having everything, but about appreciating what you already have. Very nicely written!!!!

A lot of folk would like to be \'happy\' like Mr Dodd - naughty, not paying taxes. Of course, he would sing \'Happiness\'. Doh!

You had me going, right up to the end. That word, which I shall not repeat, is taboo. Good write Andy, thank you for the laugh of the day, you always come through!
