That Journey.
Doggerel Dave said:
Much more important than the destination is the journey - once I\'ve arrived I\'ve got nothing to strive for..... but I have to tell you, at this point I don\'t mind so very much - happy to enjoy the little things and not strive so hard.
We are both in very close to the same position, I think. Thanks for the reminder, Andy.

Good write Gold.
A pity folk take steps backwards when they hear my singing. It has that effect on them. They stand back 50 yards! lol.
One church had a \'dance\' - two steps forward, one step back. I didn\'t know if I was coming or going!

Nods of agreement at reading your piece of exposure dear Andy - those with phones to their ears give me a right scare in daylight not to mention their appearance in darkness.

Good experience by the sound of it, Andy.
Humour in such situations makes a big difference, and they sound like the kind of people who would really enjoy a ringing endorsement - and in poetic form too.
Your words were good stuff by any standards.

Only The Lonely.
L. B. Mek said:
so these lyrics inspired the spine to your worded anguish, Andy
caught you off-guard, maybe
in that realm where a few good days lined-up in a row, for a change
and you felt the trickles of whimsy, awaken from within, too easily
then back - without a parachute
you were swirling in that cyclone pain of remembrance
and wilting, in the face of unrequited yearning
still, my friend you\'ve been here before
so when those gushing tears stopped forming streams
and dwindled to mere droplet puddles, once more
you chose: to look ahead and bravely smiled
\'I got this! my beloved...\' you whispered, to that part of Joyce
pulsing within each gifted breath, you learned to treasure
eventually, when your trembling fingers - calmed
and your stoic British resolve, resumed
eyesight - blinked dry, feet - back-up and sturdy
stubbornly facing, that semblance of reality
you\'ve learnt to accept, willingly
grateful steps - moved, to replenish your spirit
with a few sips of a sobering - stiff drink
and finally sat back down, before a blank screen
let your fingers - dance: to the cadence
of that poetic genius, you choose to share with us...
\'behold: ye all
his worded testimony
to fruits, that blossom
from a nurtured love\'s: undying fortitude
of unflinching, loyalty!\'
