Lack of Death.
ANGELA & BRIAN said:
GOOD MORNING UNCLE ANDY - ANGELA HERE ! Thanks for the VIDEO (I could play along with that - Love CHOPIN) and your DROLL Poem on a SOMBRE subject ! We had heard that the FD\'s were crying into their coffins because of LONGEVITY - Blame the PHYSIOS for that ! Another reason is that all the 75+ are hanging in until they know the OUTCOME of BREXIT ! However you can delay DEATH ! Thomas Jefferson did - so he could die on the 50th Anniversary of the Signing of the Declaration of Independence aged 83 on the FOURTH of JULY 1826 !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOUR LOVELY JOYCE
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡💙🧡

It reminds me of an Emo Phillips joke.
I told my Mum I needed a tuxedo for an event I was invited to. She said I could borrow my Grandfathers. So I went to look for the shovel.

Yes, it\'s not good enough - people living too long. They can\'t get enough trade! Ooohhh (heehee). Well, we\'ve both been around since before 1066.

So beautiful 🙂
I love the way you speak of branches \" pleading \" to the heavens .... Personifying those branches as if they had feelings
And referring to nature as \" artwork \"
Truly lovely , enjoyed reading

So was I there to see those scenes as in this fine write Gold. You see me? in scarf, coat, hat, gloves?! lol.
Sometimes it\'s more of a dash through the country for me in chillier weather, unless it\'s just to cold, and I abandon the walk.
But some folk still don\'t have coats on, and even wear shorts still.

A good write Gold. If she\'s not around, you still sit in tears - listening to me. I\'m on the radio too, ya know, warbling!
\'I never knew you cared so much\', I said to one who heard me. \'Oh it\'s not weeping with joy; it\'s out of frustration and torment\' was the reply! lol.

BRIAN HERE (free afternoon on a Tuesday (PM) because I teach an Evening Class !) First let me thank you for show casing two of my FAVE STARS ~ both still alive & well ! Joan was @ the Welsh International Feastival @ Llangollen a few Years ago ~ she improves with time ! Ive been giving talks on S & Garfunkel for Senior Groups ~ everyone cries when we come to BRIDGE ! We had the Tribute S & G from the West End in a local Theatre Recently ! After 5 minutes they were THEM ! Wonderful duet with PS & JB ~ AMEN.
It must be amazing to have GROWN-UP KIDS and still be an integral part of their LIVES ~ loved the ODD ODE ~ It ENCOURAGED US ~ to start our Family asap after Easter 2020 ! At the EVANGELICAL CHURCH which Angela attends most Sundays (She goes to St Marys once a Month with MAMA & PAPA ~ often I go as well !) we have about Ten Young Mums with BABIES and ANGELA always seems to be holding ONE during the Service ! We have an Open Creche so the Mums & Dads can enjoy the Singing & Sermon & Communion (once a month AM and once a month PM ! The KIDS (under 2) and Cocgregation (over 85) are usually asleep during the sermon !
Blessings & Peace for YOU & YOUR LOVELY JOYCE

Ah yes - we had this when the children left home. Plenty of their possessions which they had no room for. They stayed with us for a house move before we said they were going to the skip if not collected, The outcome? We delivered them to their houses - in London, in Leicester and in Rugby. That what Dads are for I guess.

Oh lol, a fine write Gold. Just call me if they are too much for you, and I\'ll give \'em a song or three. That\'ll scare anyone off. But it might be too drastic. They may never return. I usually reserve my singing for my worst enemies! heehee.

When we think all that can be sung, has already been sung, we find new ways it can still move us.

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

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\'.

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.
