No, No, No! We are not as old as we think, or feel. We are as old as we are.
How we feel or think are completely separate.
I was at the Doctor\'s the other day, minor problem, when this gentleman walks in looking fit as a fiddle. Thought he was 50 ish maybe 60. Fills out the necessary paper work, and then gets called to the desk; \" Sorry Sir, you wrote your birth year as \'22, this is only \'21......\"
Well, I wasn\'t born this year, that\'s 1922.\" \" Oh, so sorry, Wow!\" I think he got the lucky draw in the gene lottery.
It\'s just best to grow old gracefully. - Phil A.

At One With Nature.
myself and me said:

Every time I look up the blue sky, I feel like I am flying. It is such a wonderful feeling to be one with nature.

Vegetation is the harbinger of nature and in their presence we experience oneness with existence itself, as you have in this poem

I think of woodland as the cathederals of our spirituality. There is such a presence among the trees.
I am with you in the feeling of one-ness with nature expressed in your post today.

Good write, Andy.
The cost to feed, clothe, house, and educate every child on the planet annually is equal to what the nations of the world spend on armaments quarterly. If we don\'t do something collectively to stop it we will create an Extent Level Event in this century.

yeah, Andy (if only they\'d have kept singing to that song sheet)
but then they all grew-up
realised they needed to infiltrate \'the system\'
to bring about sustained change
and so, now we have weaponised university Grad\'s
with \'warped\' liberal mindset\'s
with no room for a common ground, because
their professor\'s baptised them
in that activism zealotry of blinkered ideology
where inclusivity means
doing everything \'their way, in only one way\'
and free loving\'s freedom
is hijacked by those who endlessly seek: that mirage
of a socialist utopia...
(I\'m sorry my opinionated rambling
took me somewhere political, and far
from the spirit of your write, dear poet
I just think the assassination
of both Lennon and Robert Kennedy
really poisoned that generation\'s opportunity
for genuine change, and so
decades later, we\'ve seen their once - humane ideal\'s
dissolve into such a divisive weapon
against the goodness that still exists in society,
when you think a whole generation of graduates
has been brain washed into believing
that free speech is toxic and needs to be regulated???
that\'s how far those same \'hippies\' have devolved
such a shame, truly...)
