Wisdom has to be allowed a hearing with quiet attention which sadly is rare in these noisy days. Good points made here Andy.

(i can\'t help but feel these words
apply to more than those fools
on our news screens and front pages, Andy)
I recognise \'the fool\' in your words
I see him lurking in mirrors, where
I try to scrub my reflection, clean
of shower fogged, self-doubts
and reality warping ego\'s, foils
one
morning\'s gleaned wisdom, at a time
(Always appreciate the depths in your wisdom, dear Poet)
I read and attempt to heed!

Doh! it\'s true, even Proverbial, in the Bible book of Proverbs.
Something like: \'A fool utters all his/her mind, but not a wise man/woman\'.
I, of course, like the sound of my own voice in singing. I\'m the only ones who does! lol. Someone\'s gotta like it. heehee.

And there’s Garrulous Gertie down the road;
Also Blabbermouth Bill across the way -
Loquacious Linda in full throttle mode.
Now Desperate Dave accused of foul play……

I fell in love with Cavalleria Rusticana the very first time I heard it. It never ceases to make me smile and tear up just a little. This is truly beautiful dear Andy and I can understand the depth of love that it reflects.

This is such a fun read my friend! For some reason I now have an overwhelming desire to brew a cup of tea. Now, what about the pie?

Doggerel Dave said:
There ain’t nothing like a good cuppa tea:
Though it’s more like a mug ‘o tea I likes.
Just don’t stint on the leaves and let it be;
Tea a plenty, I’m contented – no gripes.
Fun parody, Andy.

A fine write Gold.
I remember in school with music lessons, singing \'On Ilkley Moor B\'ah Tat!\' Was that the start of all the troubles, i.e. when I first sang? lol.
(The tune fits a hymn too)

Herbert, oh as a child I had this notion to collect all of his recorded work. I also wanted to name a fictive character in a novel or story von Karajan. LOL. But here you are at the 1:50 mark and could only agree. Thanks for sharing Andy!

Doggerel Dave said:
Music can enhance many a moment
And add to satisfaction felt all round.
This moment added to the bestowment
Of each other’s love, now more closely bound.
Considering my general aversion to love poetry Andy, I however girded my loins and did the best I could……It’s the challenge, yer see… LOL.

Nelson Went to Battle 2
Bella Shepard said:
A wonderful tribute to the tenacity and courage of a great hero. Beautifully written my friend. Also love the accompanying video, a pianist who becomes one with his instrument, it\'s always a marvel to me.

One of our much loved heroes is Nelson - a write that pays lighter tribute to this special day . Thank you dear Andy for the welcome reminder that Trafalgar\'s battle brought this country many more victories by his example

Doggerel Dave said:
This a matter of historical fact?
Doubtless – but please include ‘I see no ships’.
He never would have had brown trousers packed;
He wouldn’t have let such words cross his lips.
Wasn’t he too busy saying “England expects that every man will do his duty – but bring me brahn boots just in case”????

It should be filmed this way Andy! Red coat easy target, brown pants easy burial. Don’t find that kind of courage these days; one that would go down with the ship.

Oh lol, good write Gold!
Was we there in person, us two? Did I muck it up, as in 1066?!
I think I did. I gave Nelson an eye patch for the eye he could see with. It went wrong from then on. Doh!

Doggerel Dave said:
Please now hope it works for more than just you;
Otherwise you are chirping in a storm.
While the personal is political,
Paradise cannot ever be the norm.
Keep it up, Andy - you never know...mine is just one opinion....
