Yes, more music passed on to feed the soul, I as a fan of social distancing before it became popular ;)

For a poetic old timer
there\'s really nowt finer
than to rhyme
what the wind
blows from China

now that the world has gone viral
it\'s knocked us for six in the payroll
and left us quite hopping
at the state of our shopping
how deep will we go down this spiral?

now we\'ve got Boris elected
we hear the poor buggers infected
he cant have a hug
from his gal in the club
no wonder he looks so dejected

look ... do you see what these limericks do to me?.... you\'re as bad as that M.E. fella gettin me going like this

Oh lol - light relief in these times.
I told an awful joke - it\'s evil if I really meant it:
\'How do you get rid of Jehovah\'s Witnesses these days?\'
\'Just open the front door and cough!\'
Someone actually had them call on them in this crisis.

Victim of Loneliness?
ANGELA & BRIAN said:

BRIAN HERE ~ Thnaks for a very apt but poignant Video & Poem to underline the gravity & rising death toll due to COVID 19 ! It can only get worse before it gets better. Togetheness Isolation has been no problem for Angela & I in our first week of married Life in Casa Nuestra ! However I am concerned for Angela who is due back on *General Nursing / Physio* on Monday Morning !

The Lament *He Lived Alone ~ He Died Alone ~ He was Buried Alone*
is so so tragic ~ but alas it is echoed Worldwide.
We didnt get the Wedding we wanted but our loss
was nothing compared to his. Thanks for caring.

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Brian & Angela πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›

Victim of Loneliness?
dusk arising said:

With age comes a myriad of blessings and trials but one rare quality is given to a few of us. Being seen to be noble by others. There is no price to it, no route to it, it is there or not there. Maybe it is rare because he/she who sees nobleness is rare also.

Andy,

Unfortunately that’s the situation. Northern Italy has been hit the hardest...and now it’s making its way South! They are not as well equipped as the North. There will be more deaths by the hundreds...I’m sorry to say!😭


Be safe and stay well!

Ironing Sadness.
Afternoontea said:

Very touching piece Andy. Such an impact from a few lines about a mundane task. I try not to think about much when ironing, too busy trying not to burn my fingers.

BRIAN HERE ~ Thanks for sharing the Dankworths ~ Jonny & Cleo ~ I have seen them in Concert ~ Spine Tingling ! May Jonny RIP. We love rivers and have one near our Home with a Woodland and our fave tree is a gnarled OAK ! Home to sqirrels - birds and countles insectivora ! We are fortunate to have such a natural site within walking distance.
Love the Poem (and in answer to your *Q* a while back) we love *Free Verse* provided it scans and yours always does ~ and is a delight to read ~ AMEN !

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours

That river of yours does you a power of good. But you are supposed to be self isolating you vulnerable old codger!

Lovely writing from you today goldfinch.

A Walk to My Willow.
Michael Edwards said:

The river through our village is more like a large stream again. All the little islands have emerged as have the little red flags which denote locations of water vole presence (holes droppings , sightings). So uplifting - couldn\'t spot any fish but they\'ll be there - my wife and I take a different route each day as our allowed \'exercise\'. Looking forward to todays walk in sunshine again - it is all so uplifting in these sad times.
And your poem captures it all - keep writing Andy - I allways enjoy your postings.

And so, to so many questions we cannot find answers for. Many avenues our minds will travel.

After much thinking comes the pearl of wisdom and truth. \"Love will conquer all\"

It is within you.

So - life is a \'mere span\' of 70 or 80 years - or around 100 if we so live that long - compared to infinity.

The \'church\' of god is all around you in this piece Mr G. What better way to worship than to be among the glories being mindful and then upon reflection writing this piece today. Spreading the good word.
