Good write Gold. I too heard \'Crossroads\' tune years ago. it filled me with horror though, knowing that serials was about to start! Also \'Neighbours\' tune - hideous! lol.

Your miss of music dear Andy shows in this poem. Despite friends and bridge you would be relieved to switch on some music once the evening was over.

Fighting for Peace?
ANGELA & BRIAN said:

GOOD MORNING UNCLE ANDY ~ We love the music by KHATCHATURIAN ~ Solemn for a Remembrance Sunday Morning ! While we agree that the Slogan *FIGHT FOR PEACE* is an oxymoron we think that WW2 (which cost 20 million lives many of then Civilians) was an exception. It really was a WAR of *GOOD* against *EVIL* Our Allies against HITLER and The Third Reich ! In 1923 im MEIN KAMPF (My Struggle) Hitler wrote *Der Juden sint ein Germ ....... * The JEWS are aGERM they infiltrate ( and poison) every strata & aspect of Society ....... ! When He became (by subterfuge) the Chancellor of Germany in 1933 he began to lay plans for the FINAL SOLUTION ~ Purging GERMANY (& Europe) of JUDAISM ! SIX MILLION were murdered in cold blood in WW2 ! Thank GOD there are now more JEWS in Europe than there were in 1933 despite the HOLOCAUST ! Visit Auschwitz and you will feel the Satanic Evil of the Third Reich. Should we have done NOTHING (as Chamberlain suggested) and let Hitler get on with it ~ OR ~ Take a CHURCHILLIAN stance and *FIGHT THEM ON THE BEACHES ~ TO THE LAST MAN & WOMAN ~ AND NEVER SURRENDER !* I think Churchill was right and in SIX YEARS the 1000 Year Reich was obliterated from the FACE of the EARTH its perpertrators DEAD or EXECUTED and Peace in Europe secured ! Would you have enlisted or would you have had the COURAGE to be a CONSCIENSIOUS OBJECTOR and serve down the COAL MINES ! Today *WE MUST REMEMBER* all those who died that we in the UK might enjoy the Freedom of living in a Free Democracy under the QUEEN (who endured WW2 in London) & PM Boris Johnson(for the next MONTH !). Sometimes there is no alternative but *TO FIGHT FOR PEACE* or release others (like the Coal Miners) to do so ~ OK

Blessings & Peace to YOU & JOYCE

Fighting for Peace?
orchidee said:

A fine write Gold. I hesitate to put lines like \'fighting\' for peace\' in poems. In a way it\'s fighting for outward peace, I feel, to keep things \'sweet\'. But does it change people from within?
Then again, I have included a line in my poem today of \'maintaining liberty, both bold and free\'.

A thoughtful write Gold.
I was in the film \'A bridge too far\'. Not the war film, the lesser-known one, where people crossed a bridge to reach me, to hear me sing. It was subtitled \'Forbidden Journey!\' heehee.

Jean Kelly and the two boys do a good job of this routine Andy. I think they poached the \'Singing in the Rain\' bit later on from Eric and Ernie.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

ANGELA HERE - Thanks UNCLE ANDY for a great SONG - by a Great SINGER and a great TRIBUTE to MLK. Thanks for sharing with us the great void in your life 24/7 due the fact that your beloved wife JOYCE - although present in the BODY - due to ALZHEIMERS - SHE is in essence not THERE ! I have some experience of Couples on my Home visit list for PHYSIO and it is very very tragic. The person they knew & loved for all their married life has disappeared. One can only comfort them and PRAY with them to reduce the heartache ! You are in all our thought and PRAYERS - AMEN

Blessings & Peace to YOU & JOYCE
Love ANGELA & BRIAN

She may not be there, Goldie, but every line in your poem shows that the love is there. And in the end, that is all that matters!
