The Unknown Is Out There.
John Prophet said:

Hi Andy,

Very nice. I have a similar place.
I call it β€œthe orchard on a hill”
An apple orchard near where I live.
I take my dog for walks there I stop and do that as your poem.

Best Regards
JP

Happy Anniversary Joyce.
L. B. Mek said:

beautiful! not purely for its raw sentimental elements but moreover for its hopeful tone of acceptance and also expectance, that this flesh and blood existence is not the final chapter of your love,
a truly inspiring write Andy!
\'But as I was walking she arrived,
Arrived by my side.
And together we walked along Our River
Walked in harmony,\'

dusk arising said:

Such a moving piece today. Your heart is surrounded in the strength of the unending bond you both created.
The strength of character which you display open hearted to us all has genuinely gathered my respect for you as a man. Would that we all were so gifted.

Your beloved wife is with you watching over you.

Keep writing ✍ and safe during lockdown.

A bit embarrassing with Ch...card list, if we may not see people (live too far away, etc) and they have passed on, but we still keep churning out cards for them.
Well, if there is no way of knowing - they may have lived alone, or partner not informed us of their passing.

FineB said:

Hi Andy,

A lovely poem.

Thank you.

I was listening to the late photographer Terry O Neill\'s interview on Desert Island Discs the other day.

If he hadnt been a photographer he would have been a jazz musician that was his earliest ambition.

Keep writing ✍ and safe during these challenging times.

FineB said:

Hello Andy,

I hope this second wave will be the last.

Keep writing ✍ and safe during lockdown.

Some hymn somehow kept missing out the first word of each line for some reason. Maybe they were in a hurry to get home from church. It threw them metres into confusion!

ANGELA HERE ~ Good Sabbath Uncle Andy - Thanks for sharing a great uplifting Rhythm for a Sunny Saturday in Essex !

Of the making of MUSIC there is no end

To the Troubled MIND !

I felt like I was back in a Bar in PUEBLA MX with a Tequila and a bowl of *Black Bean Chili* ~ AMEN

Blessins & Peace & Joy to YOU & YOURS

Loving this light-hearted approach to a further lockdown - your pie sounds a winner when you get to the kitchen my friend.

good write Andy, humour is the way to get through 2020, can\'t allow yourself to take things too seriously

Doggerel Dave said:

Ah Andy - I don\'t know what to say about lockdown as I\'ve never really done it. The State of Victoria has lead the way there. So is empathy without knowledge any good? \'Tell you what though: I will gain massively out of your experience if it provides you with the motivation to continue to exhibit the kind of beautiful music you have been showing us.

Stay safe. Dave

orchidee said:

You can go to different shops - the ones that are open, that is.
You can start your Ch....card list - you know!
I\'m sure I saw a couple of shops open, that come under \'non-essential\'.

FineB said:

Absolutely we should all try and smile more often.

Violence Solved?
L. B. Mek said:

\'As if you see a mosquito
And it lands on your balls,
You have to realise
There must be a way to solve problems
Without using violence.\'

Ha! so witty, had me 🀣

Doggerel Dave said:

Plenty of material there, Andy - at the absurdity of this life and especially the folly of large numbers of the people occupying it.
Get a good giggle going.
You can do it.

I dunno - lockdown or not - no smiles from some shop staff. It may depend on which shops we visit.
