My Island of Peace
dusk arising said:
What a super idea...I\'d be there tomorrow.
On the other hand these idealistic ideas tend to miss out on some rather important stuff. Now then, such an idyllic island is going to appeal to disrespectful lazy wasters as much as it will to anyone else, how do you decide who clears up after such people especially if theyre not prepared to dig their own toilet and backfil.. etc etc etc
Great uplifting poet especially in these troubled times when the planet needs us to be more caring ans respectful of our environment.

Will be there. fallenAngel1 had mentioned a ‘picnic of poetry’, in summer, so MPS poets can gather on your island. Food from all round the world! Lovely.

Evading The Truth.
L. B. Mek said:
\'Listening, is the same.
So many people just hear,
Just hear
and never listen,
And once more
they do not understand,
Do not understand
the true meaning,
The true meaning
of the things they hear.
So once again
they evade the truth,
The truth
that is there.\'
(just love the musicality you\'ve imbued into this verse,
by perfectly showcasing the art of purposed repetition in poetry, Andy
this is such a wonderful reading experience
it\'s like a verse, just waiting to have music written for it and performed
a lovely write!
thank you for sharing my friend)

We have these great five senses, but in life, the sixth sense is probably the most important. Truth can be interpreted in many ways, and usually signed off as such.

A surface conversation:
\'How are you?\'
\'Oh, having a terrible time\'.
\'Erm. I thought you would say \'OK thanks\'. I didn\'t actually want you to say that. Doh! Now I gotta listen to your troubles for about three hours!\'

\'The moon shines down on me.
I look passed this wondrous sight
Into the darkness and see the stars.
I look passed the stars each a memory,
A memory of a loved one,
And into that darkness I go,\'
my thought\'s too, have ventured
to those silent plains, Andy
and have found a twinkle or two
to help me believe
there\'s hope, enough
to invest and
\'seek in that great, Perhaps\'
as Rabelais, supposedly
said it, best...
(love the music choice, dramatic
like the pointed, initial moment
before we make any choice in life
but then
it continues to portray a rather mellow
if lofty
endurance strengthening, energetic musicality)
lol
like I know anything about music

It’s one of the ideas I have always dwelled in
And you gave words to my ideas
What if somebody in parallel world is watching
What he shall think
It’s intriguing as well it gives a smile thinking about it

There are spirits of our angels and loved ones somewhere Andy in a place we can\'t comprehend ..... it\'s a belief which falls naturally to man but as you know has been clouded by religious practices.

This is what is wrong with the country. People just can\'t read. I don\'t know how many signs I\'ve put up in bold. Chivas regal drop off point. I mean, how hard can it be.
