Jeanne cut mine and made a fairly good job of it so don\'t need to go for a while yet. Nice one Andy.

Custer.

Blimey i remember my brother telling me that story when i was about 14. Thanks for retelling a good fun story here. It brought back a few memories of happier times with my now departed brother Rod.
Life is for the living.
Footnote. I recently bought a native american flute to mess about with. It\'s a very limited instrument and has a lovely haunting tone but only one octave. One day i shall organise my music room (too many other projects on the go at the moment - including being lazy) and make a recording or two to accompany my scribblings on MPS.

sorry Andy - but I can\'t find this funny (nor sadly, can I simply scroll-past and ignore)..
general Custer was a war criminal
who butchered helpless woman and children
going - against
what were originally - inhumane orders
to act-out
his zealotry of blinkered cruelty!

Dancing In Her Arms.
L. B. Mek said:
\'The slow beat of the song
Makes me want to dance,
Remembering the dancing
With my lover in my arms
As we sway together\'..
as we sway, you say - in the now of remembered serenity
and may it always, always remain this way
for you and your beloved: too..
wonderful use of repetition Andy

To see truly good young singing talent on TV has a similar effect on me Andy. Dunno why, it cuts to memories of my young singing days and total lack of self confidence even though i was fronting a band. I guess theres something just cuts through the bullshit of everyday and connects with an inner longing.

A poignant write Gold.
Music pulling at the heart-strings, recalling happy memories.
Happy, except if I sing along to the music. heehee. Hope I don\'t turn up to sing!

dusk arising said:
One of my pleasure is to lose myself in a book in surroundings strange to me such as on holiday sat in the sun or shade if very hot. So relaxing, the complete removal of reality and venturing into a mind created environment.... escapism.

Good write Gold.
I\'m not a fast reader, but we can fairly soon read a 300 page book. We may think it will take ages. Depends on the size of the pages and word spacing too!
You read that Domesday Book? You found the entries for you and I in it? Is my unfortunate even with Harold in it?!

Talking With My Brother.
dusk arising said:
Cor! if only the rules of rugby were so similar. Lovely game but i haven\'t a clue whats going on half the time.
Great poem including in a conversation with your brother. You definitely have the art of being able to write about anything.

L. B. Mek said:
such is life my friend, let us old souls at least take some comfort
in the mere fact, that like that humble-Great Socrates:
we accumulated enough knowledge - to realise, we know very little at all
a rare feat of humility, in today\'s egocentric society..
thanks for all the great music you choose to share with us Andy

\"Put another nickel in
In the nickelodeon
All I want is loving you
And music, music, music\"
Should be your theme song, Andy.
Since I joined MPS the range of music I\'ve been introduced to expands nearly every day.
And whose fault is that.....?

I\'d never think of you as ignorant. Rather i\'d say \"open minded to sounds as yet unencountered\" or \"one who finds pleasure in new places\".
There.... that\'ll make you smile.

Life Book.
L. B. Mek said:
life-affirmingly hopeful words of wisdom, yet again Andy..
just sad, that some of us are born into such diverse and difficult circumstances:
where our pages are drenched or churned into ash, before we get to realise what a book is in the first place,
or live a life where we only learn to read and write in our 30\'s, 40\'s or worse yet, have our lives end without ever learning
that h-o-p-e: spells opportunity, for that better we never learned to wish for..
sorry my friend I know I may be being needlessly dramatic, but I just thought best to remind those able to read these words
how lucky we are, to know: there\'s a better, for us to reach for

But you are not ignorant of that 4\' 33\" silent piece.
A composer said he would make a 40 years silent piece of me singing, so ya won\'t hear me!

Devoting a poem to rhyme
brings forth enchantments devine
though oft overlooked
and oft over-cooked
their inclusion is surely sublime.

Except to owe you a mere one dime
Is I feel, Andy something of a crime:
You are too good for that
When off your own bat
You provide music and occasional rhyme.
Now come on Andy - You are wasting time here when you could be finding another rhyme….. or more music.
Thanks.
