I think you gave us all a glimpse at the true attraction of croquet, steeped in all that nature I can only imagine at the serenity it must bring

Good write Gold.
Recently though - I stepped outside, then dashed back in, with gloomy black thunder-clouds.
What was the weather in 1066?

if there is a single person out there... and I do mean anywhere who can read these words without a smile appearing on their face before they get to the end .. then they must be from another planet ....

We all have strange dreams now and again. Our friend Unsub has a panchant for writing poems and songs which can be quite disturbing.
I\'ll have a go one day..... let me see, its sunday isn\'t it.

ANGELA HERE - God Sunday - Uncle Andy ! Thanks for the VIDEO! I love SKELETONS and have one called FRED (who wears a Top Hat & a Bow Tie) in my OFFICE ! Understanding the Human Skeleton & All its Joints & how they function is a very impotant aspect of my JOB as a PHYSIO! Some of My Clients (recovering from fractures etc) - who have never seen or handled a full size Human Skeleton - are quite surprized at both its complexity & simplicity ! Sometimes if Im going out to give a talk I strap FRED in the Front Passenger Seat! He causes quite a stir if I pull in for PETROL!
We enjoyed UNSUBS POEM & your response. Thanks for re-sharing.
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela - Brian - Smokey π§‘ππ€

Andy,
Your positive outlook on life is infectious! You are one of my go to poets on MPS whose work I always refer to when I feel sad; when I question the negatives in my life; when the βwhy meβ syndrome rears itβs ugly head.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

So sweet.
I especially liked \"Some have been sad/ But as I look back/ Most have been wonderful.\"
A small reminder that we can\'t have the good without the bad; and that even then, the good moments make it all worth it. Thank you for sharing!

I\'m thinking that the comment i made to your piece yesterday is just as appropriate today.
There\'s a lot to be learned by many of your readers from your expressed outlook upon life and the beautiful world we walk in.
You are becoming the bard of life on mps.

A read of such moving love will every lift hearts who themselves wish to find it - and also those who understand that love once found can never die.......... a beautiful number from Elvis too - thank you for sharing with us here Andy.

You are learning about love in al it\'s reality as you experience it and live it. Learning in a way which is only open to you and we your readers cannot take that learning journey with you. But we are learning from you in ways unexpected, unexperienced that love is perhaps the strongest force known - or partially known - to mankind.
Your path is yours alone. Your goal we know of. And I think collectively we will you on with strength and goodwill.

BRIAN here ~ Good FRIDAY Uncle Andy ~ This oft recurring Precious theme assures us Younger Members of four important things in LOVE & LIFE !
1. To truly love *The LOVE of our LIFE*
2. For that Love to continue through adversity
3. Death doth Hide but not Divide
4. Assurance of Reunion in the Spirit Dimension
Comfort one-another with these Words ~ AMEN
DV Angela & I expect to have another 50 years together (to 2070) and Children & Grandchildren (like You & Joyce) but Your Poem(s) assures US that Our Love too is ERTERNAL.
Thanks for showcasing ELVIS who transformed Ballad Singing with HIS note perfect 2.5 octave range and a legacy of 850 perfect recordings ! Oft imitated but NEVER bettered ! This is one of our FAVES ~ PERFECTION & a fitting accolade to your Live & Love & Separation with Your Beloved JOYCE ~ An inspiration ~ Absent in the Body ~ but ever present in your Heart ~ AMEN !
Blessings & Peace & Love to You & Yours

how lucky you are, to have your Joyce waiting - giving, you the perfect excuse to squeeze every last ounce out of life: imagining her delight, when you share your new stories whilst traversing that afterlife, once more and eternally: side by side

Yet in one sense - life is very long, centuries long. Why, we was both there in 1066. Just call us (you and I) Methuselah!
There\'s eternity to spend with my singing - arrggghhh! I will say then: \'I\'m better now!\' lol.

Americanisation of english language useage and unless it\'s slang i hate it. But it\'s the younger generation who are more accepting of it than us old gits and if we\'re hones, it\'s their world now, we have to stay in our \'has beens\' enclosure of \'out of touch\'
My granddaughters are well advanced of their age group because their mum has taken on their home education and i\'m thrilled to see the results. I shall be meeting them again today for the first time in about 5 months. I\'m taking some childish poems I have written which i hope to hear six year old Ruby read aloud.

I fully agree with you. Just a thought though: sadly support at home is often the issue which can make difference - and are those parents with a higher level of education (those generally less poor) better able to provide it?

Ahhh one of my all time favs \'So what\' by Miles davis even though i used to hate the coltrane solo (on a different planet). For me this is the only tempo for \'so what\' yet miles always played it at double or quadruple time live. Very odd.
Recently i learned a song to sing/play on my little ukelele which has an interesting first verse on the subject of time.. \"Hello friend,.. where you been so long,.. time goes by,... it all seems to drift away,... just like a shadow,.. at the end of the day\". An impressive line.
Re: plug holes and washing.... i\'ve saved the shower water and i\'ll think about washing the car with it (only think about it mind u).... then i was going to water the plants wit it but i\'m sure i could get more use out of it before it just disappears...... this staying young is hard work.
