Maybe I Am Old.
Poetic Dan said:

The beauty in the lesson of life right there! I am not old but I look in my youngest eyes of grandparents she\'ll never know..

Many we show them the spirit we was once shown, to bring up all love that is known...

Thanks for the inspiration ;)

Oh yes indeed - agree most fully with that wise quote my poet-friend - - and what a treasure of music you chose to accompany your winsome words. Thanking you sincerely for both dear Andy.

One of my nightmares - Stand-up comedians Show. Phew, it\'s on late-night. I shall miss it.
They say \'Comedy and laughter coming soon on TV\'. I say \'Where?!\'

Where Would I Be Without It?
Doggerel Dave said:

Now you’ve done it Andy. Down the rabbit hole that is utube, morning gone – should have done my shopping a couple of hours ago before it got too hot….

Take it easy,
Dave

Your chosen music was a new experience for me today Andy -- very cool and relatable -- and yes I agree music means so much to different listeners.

L. B. Mek said:

what a wonderful dedication and thank you for introducing me to such a relatable and vivid poem Andy,
those river walks must be getting a little chilly though - but soon, early Spring will return,
seems to be returning by early February in recent years, maybe global warming? if so, guess even that has \'some\' benefits...

A fine write Gold.
I\'m not walking me River much these days - or rather, this season of the year. I wouldn\'t see much of it. It would be more a of a gallop than a stroll, to keep warm.

When much of what children study as history - to you were current events. You are old.

Maybe I Am Old.
Samer Amin said:

Actually, our chronological age can differ greatly from our biological one, which can also be scientifically verified by measuring the length of \'\'Telomere\'\', a protective cap at the end of our chromosomes, and makes them multiply efficiently over the years.

Beside other numerical biological parameters.That means you have a right to feel young, as long as your biological indications still function youthfully, and still able to defy the chronological age.

I wouldn\'t say your old Goldfinch but i do know some hills which are younger than you.

We are both a pair of old has-been codgers.

Michael Edwards said:

It hits us all from time to time. My youngest grandson celebrates his 9th birthday today and I remember holding him after he was born and walking around with him in my arms. Tempus fugit.

Maybe I Am Old.
orchidee said:

Yep, we are very old, us two anyway. We was there in 1066, carved our initials on a tree, and added: \'We woz ere 1066\'.
At a church, mainly elderly, some who had a relative from the Boer War were not many generations removed. Someone knew some old Colonel that was in it!

Passed Into Our Future.
L. B. Mek said:

\'Since she has passed into our future.\'
what a beautiful interpretation of life - in its entirety,
how tangible your feelings read Andy and how exemplary a survivor you remain, in choosing to bare witness to all that love \'she\' intrusted within your heart, refusing to succumb to that pain you carry in every step, by leaning on that true gift of Love\'s endless solace, treasured with such sincere dedication...
a brilliant write my friend, if your permit me I\'ll toast: to the person that infused so much of her wisdom within that name she shared with you in life and in those vivid memories, that keep you warm: through the loneliness of night,
salud mi Amigo: \'to Her\' peaceful, well deserved rest.

Gerry Marsden RIP.
L. B. Mek said:

sadly, I was only introduced to his genius through my love of all things LFC and their adopted humane ideology within those few words of:
\'You\'ll Never Walk Alone\',
I still vividly recall those life affirming goosebumps I felt when some 50\'000 sang it (or bravely attempted - to) as one: a wonderful experience to help create or behold,
thanks for the road down a pleasant memory lane Andy, a wonderful dedication

dusk arising said:

What makes what we have become today? What has made you so resilient where others would fold? I\'m inclined to think it is not just your bright positive outlook but also the self knowledge that you have experienced a true shared love fulfilled. Because you kind of radiate that through your words Goldfinch. No bullshit.
