There were proper comedy shows in the 70\'s still though. When on telly it says \'Comedy shows coming soon\', I yell \'\'Where?\' at the screen. lol. Laugh? I never started.
I thought this was gonna be about the Ten-Sixties, 1066 and all that!

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

ANGELA HERE - Good Morning Uncle Andy - Thanks for sharing a Great Song by a great 60s Group. Such LYRICS & even better Harmony ! Much of both missing in todays music ! I missed the 60s by almost 30 years but thank God for digitally remastered CD\'s & Alexa ! Although born in 1983 Brians preferred era is the 50s & 60s and he has a massive CD & a modest Vinyl Collection. We have invested in a BANG & OUFLSON CD Player to do them justice !
*Thanks for the Memory* of so many iconic Groups & Tunes ! Brian & I envy those who were Teens in the 60s so many precious memories & psychedelic dreams ! Im on Las Ramblas - BARCELONA today !

Blessings & Peace to You & Yoursla
Love Angela - Brian - Smokey 💛💛💛

A brilliant, good write.

You have captured the essence of the Sixties.

My late mother said there is no time like the Sixties it was a wonderful unforgettable time.

Keep writing ✍ and safe during these challenging times.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

GOOD MORNING ~ UNCLE ANDY ~ THANKS FOR SHARING ~ Inspiring Music to wake up to and an equally inspiring MANTRA ! Each one of us is Wonderfully & Awesomely created ~ Angelic NOT animalistic. In the sight of our CREATOR each of us is EQUAL ~ BUT ~ alas NOT in the sight of Man. The World is blighted by the birthright & the inequality of MANMADE CLASS & CULTURE ~ just as rife in the UK as in India ! We are always heartened when History Records that FOUR GIFTED Scose Lads (The Beatles ~ remember them ?) could rule the World with the excellence of their Music and the oft simplicity of their LYRICS. Thank God for the Power of Pop ! Thanks for your Poem ~ We love its Sentiment - Sense & Shape !

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela - Brian & Smokey ~ AMEN

orchidee said:

Good write Gold. Yes, sometimes too in open countryside for example, we can see a 3-D effect of clouds.
Was one called Cloud Nine? The day clouded over metaphorically in 1066 when I turned up!

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

ANGELA HERE - Good Wednesday Uncle Mike - thanks for another enigmatic Poem. BRIAN & I sure are where we wanted to be - but we could so easily have missed each other had it not been for the intimacy of the Hospital Dance four Years ago ! We both needed Someone & found them ~ Love the Poem.
Love the CELLO my fave after the piano ! So HUMAN in shape & sentiment and therefor ideal for the Pathos & Deliverance that is embodied in Schindlers List ! One of the nost moving true films I have ever watched.

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian & Smokey 💛💛💛

In a similar way (poem to follow) Thomas asked Jesus once: \'We don\'t know where you are going, so how can we know the way to get there?\'

Brian here ~ Good evening Uncle Andy ~ Thanks for showcasing Don Estelle a fine Tenor Voice and Whispering Grass (No. 1 1975 - 8 years before I was born !) with Windsor Davis (who couldnt sing !) from the Sitcom *It aint half hot MUM* Very UN-PC ! Unfortunately Don didnt have the Physical Presence to be a Pop Star like Elvis !
Love your Poem ~ S miles M ake I mpact L ike E lectric S hock !

When I was a Scout in My Teens ~ I really did *Smile & Whistle whatever the Circumstances* and it did earn me the nickname SMILER ! We Agree with every word in your *ODE to SMILING !*

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours

Smile For All.
Fay Slimm. said:

A smile cost nothing so my old Gran would say and oh how it lifts a gloomy spirit - a beautiful tribute to the simple smile Andy and how it can reflect on all around......... I love the saying I noted quite recently that at first made me chuckle with its forceful last words - - but how beautifully this mantra works - -- --- \" If you see someone without a smile - --- GIVE EM ONE\"

L. B. Mek said:

positivity in mindset, naturally translates to a wider lensed scope of the horizons before us and the mountainous paths we traverse,
a poignant write on one of the most undervalued tools in coping methodology
wonderful flow and detail, in this thought provoking write Andy

dusk arising said:

We are the positive kind Goldfinch, happy with where we fit into the scheme of things, accepting that there are, have always been and will continue to be those with greater and lesser crosses to bear .... content and in love with the world and life itself.

I dunno what the rest have on their minds though. Some i suspect are vacant but hey... we all have our individual paths to tread.

what a fitting testimony you\'ve scripted,
