Good write Gold.
I went where no one had gone before in 1066. Everyone wishes I had not gone there at all.

I can imagine you sat on your captains log, reading a copy of the spocktator, clearing your throat \"Uhuru\" whilst from your kitchen comes the sound \"she\'s gonna blow captain\" your personalised kettle coming up to the boil.
And i\'m left thinking \"It\'s life dusk, but not as i know it\".

as it happens, it happens to me too
another well captured sensory observation sir .... indeed one might even say charming ...
I only learnt yesterday that a flock of goldfinches is called \'a charm\'

ANGELA HERE - GOOD AFTERNOON - Uncle Andy Wow we are on sacred ground today ! Beethovens Emperor Op 73, First peformed in Vienna in 1811. His 5th Piano Concerto a piece which all amateur Pianists aspire to PLAY ! Beethoven is my fave composer for Piano. No more Clinics today so a few moments to catch up on MPS after a late lunch. I empathise with your elegant Poem ~ Music is the Food of Life & Love ~ so please *Play it again Uncle Andy !*
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela Brian & Smokey ! ! !

what a comfort your pain must be to Joyce - we never consider that side often, most likely she would wish to save you of such testing days I\'m sure, but still that essence of her that remains in your mind, alive and replying to your daily musings - must cherish the transcendent connection your love has established,
what value the statues and monuments for all conquering heroes, when they decay daily and are subjected to the demoralising perpetuity of cobwebbed book covers in dusty old libraries,
nay: I propose true immortality exists within the moments of legacy we impart on those who remember us fondly after we\'ve passed,
thanks for sharing Andy

Nice reflections Andy and words that flow unhurriedly and easily like your rivers waters, pooling here and there in deeper colours. I could literally see your frosted breath. Thanks.

It\'s easy to give some \'super-spiritual\' answer such as \'There was a purpose in it\'.
I\'m not attempting to \'answer\' the question, but there were Job\'s sufferings of old, and Christ\'s sufferings in His days.
I don\'t mean religion, or playing \'let\'s go to church\' and the same old messing about, in some places.
Then again - why did two people J and H, two women, pass away from an illness, when the whole church had prayed for them both? (in one or two of my poems somewhere).
I found J\'s husband rather stand-offish, but H\'s husband is a church leader - a better person one could hardly hope to meet.

There are bound to be days like that. You are a strong and philosophical, positive person but have all the inbuilt human traits of the rest of us too. Are you on a journey to a higher place than you are conscious of?... there I go off on my thoughts about spritual journeys of enlightenment and reincarnation.... who knows... but it\'s something which enters my mind.
Also the winter blues lurk ahead don\'t they. Christmas that great time of coming together for joyous celebration and cheer. Certainly different for you this time. So no wonder there are low times.
What to do? Well I\'m no doctor but I think people/company are a great healer - difficult in covid times but you should expand your \'bubble\' to its maximum my friend and bounce off people perhaps.

You succeeded.
Nothing much more to add, Andy - they\'ve mostly said it all. I only know that the harmony I feel from that will be with me next time I go for such stroll.
If in slightly warmer temperatures.
Peace, Dave

\'My River had reached out to me
And said “Why are you ignoring me?”
So My River and I became one again.
Its beauty shone for me.
The smooth, clear green water
Giving me the clarity of thought.\'
\'\'Beauty is truth: truth beauty\'\' wrote Keats and your honest works are testament to the veracity of his words,
in the beauty of Joyce you so effortlessly imbue within each syllable of devoted dedication, you unveil the truth that burns immortal your cherished love,

Until i read the third line i thought you were going to tell us how to make an egg.
I thought that stuff grew on trees alongside the spaghetti trees in a pasta orchard.
I enjoyed the silyness of this, gave me a good laugh at all the mess u create.... just how far away is Lidl from you?.... they have it in nice neat un-messy bags you know.
I used to be everso messy with home baking.... the bread machine was a boon.... and i\'ve just started buying those part baked french sticks from tesco... great with soup.... from a can.

You go into some Staff Kitchens and it looks like someone has been throwing stuff around the room. Public areas may be immaculate, but staff areas can be horrendous. I mean the washing-up areas - nobody does it until we run out of cups or plates!
