Or (and thinking about a certain current warring \'leader\') somebody assasinates them to steal their power.
My heart goes out to the innocents living in peace but this day know they are facing likely death at the hands of russian armed forces.

\'for every flower, we witness
in our lives
we must first, eradicate
a field of weeds
knowing, all along
those weeds will return
with twice the gluttonous, greed
and that flower will wilt
far, too soon
but
in our heart, that scene
in Spring
of a budding goodness
achieving its blossom
will outlast
all the weeds, of life
we\'ve had to overcome...\'
(\'\'Beauty is truth, truth beauty,--that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.\")

It is about power and greed and showing that you can do what you want and no one can stop you. Manโs inhumanity against man.

I think it is absolutely necessary to have a mini rant when the moment requires it .. indeed under todays grim circumstances, I think a collective mini rant on behalf of all the currently oppressed in what should be a global democracy is badly needed ... I have already said my piece but elsewhere and fear that in isolation, it will probably be as effective as trying to parry a high velocity bullet with a fart ... but boy did I feel better for it ...

reading your words Andy
I couldn\'t help but think of Burn\'s:

That\'s newly sprung in June:

That\'s sweetly play\'d in tune!\'\'
from \'A red, red Rose\'

Love, in itself, sound like a person. And incredibly thoughtful, hateful, yet simultaneously profound. You could never understand them as well as yourself, but understanding removes have the fun of it in the first place.

Love happens when it considers you both ripe to pluck and placed in a dish of togetherness.
When you are singing, can you hear the wrong bass notes from your choir pal?

Okay I can relate to Robert on this one. I would classify myself as agnostic. I don\'t believe nor disbelieve in the divine. But I respect all who do have faith in religions. Either way, you wrote this well. Nice job! ๐

dusk arising said:
I totally agree with your sentiments expressed so well today. I too was a christian and abandoned that belief through it\'s inadequacies whan a personal disaster affected my family. Since then I too have realised the presence of the real god which is always with me.
I mock the condescending preachers of organised religious mumbo-jumbo who post on here such as the one who calls himself \"forever jesus\" and his kind.

All I ever want to express about the Holey (note the added \'e\') Trinity: God, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy may be found in a brief search of my back catalogue.
If, however, you have belief (and here \'belief \' is the relevant word) in \'My God and My Spirit\' then go for it, Andy - what ever keeps you grounded and sane.

If leaving \'organised religion\', that can be good - the rules, regulations, messing about, etc.
I\'m not sure that you have left belief in God.

I may have left these very same words on another poem of yours or possibly someone else\'s, some time ago,but I feel an urge to speak them every chance I get. Organized religion is nothing more than a monument to man\'s ego.๐๐ cheers Andy ๐ป

So glad you were able to play croquet. I know how much you enjoy the game. Weโve been weathering some bad weather as well.
