orchidee said:

Good write Gold. Yes, sometimes too in open countryside for example, we can see a 3-D effect of clouds.
Was one called Cloud Nine? The day clouded over metaphorically in 1066 when I turned up!

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

ANGELA HERE - Good Wednesday Uncle Mike - thanks for another enigmatic Poem. BRIAN & I sure are where we wanted to be - but we could so easily have missed each other had it not been for the intimacy of the Hospital Dance four Years ago ! We both needed Someone & found them ~ Love the Poem.
Love the CELLO my fave after the piano ! So HUMAN in shape & sentiment and therefor ideal for the Pathos & Deliverance that is embodied in Schindlers List ! One of the nost moving true films I have ever watched.

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian & Smokey 💛💛💛

In a similar way (poem to follow) Thomas asked Jesus once: \'We don\'t know where you are going, so how can we know the way to get there?\'

Smile For All.
Fay Slimm. said:

A smile cost nothing so my old Gran would say and oh how it lifts a gloomy spirit - a beautiful tribute to the simple smile Andy and how it can reflect on all around......... I love the saying I noted quite recently that at first made me chuckle with its forceful last words - - but how beautifully this mantra works - -- --- \" If you see someone without a smile - --- GIVE EM ONE\"

positivity in mindset, naturally translates to a wider lensed scope of the horizons before us and the mountainous paths we traverse,
a poignant write on one of the most undervalued tools in coping methodology
wonderful flow and detail, in this thought provoking write Andy

We are the positive kind Goldfinch, happy with where we fit into the scheme of things, accepting that there are, have always been and will continue to be those with greater and lesser crosses to bear .... content and in love with the world and life itself.

I dunno what the rest have on their minds though. Some i suspect are vacant but hey... we all have our individual paths to tread.

Reminded me of William Carlos Williams\' plums, but maybe the real analogy is to the fruit of the tree of knowledge. Adam and Eve could not resist that shortbread either, and we are still paying for it.

orchidee said:

You had that shortbread now? You scoffed the lot?! lol. Was there any in 1066. They could have come to tea with you, with shortbread, instead of listening to me mucking it up!

What Else Would I Want?
orchidee said:

A fine write and ethereal Gold. Heavenly - but listening to Stockhausen is like being in the other place: H...?! on a quiz show, one commented: \'He wrote weird and eccentric stuff\'.
I had a Ch......catalogue through the door - mustn\'t say the word yet!

Imagination and Dreams.
MendedFences27 said:

Imagination and dreams are different only in the control. We control imagination, at least partially. Dreams occur haphazardly while sleeping. Imagine if we could control our dreams. We could build our own reality. Your poem made me think. Are you controlling my imagination? - Phil A.
