The skin is a mere wrapping paper that protects the true gift the lies inside. Nice one Andy and I can listen to Pictures all day long - especially the original piano version.

A fine write, and true Gold. Some of the most attractive people outwardly, may turn out to be monsters.
Meanwhile - I was a pretty blue-eyed boy, but I turned up in 1066, and..... you know the rest!

The windows of the soul. Indeed. I have met this lady. She has many forms. My antennae gave me warning. I admired the beauty from afar and wondered at the faulty antennae of their victims. Or was the price worth the glory.
Great observational writing. Unusual to read negative qualities described in your work. The fact that i, your reader, notice this... says something about your character.

Your writing at it\'s best again here Goldfinch.
An amazing angle you have taken here to adopt the personna of the golden brown smack which entered his veins.
Though i love his ability to play trumpet as if from a cloud afar saluting the theme of the song yet taking it in ownership to somewhere new, it was his singing voice in his later years which captured me. So much living comes through in that voice. He was a handsome man and a star so much living had been done.
In learning more about this man i was astounded to find that he was not a reader of music but was quite capable of taking his place in orchestras and bands, as he did in his early career.
Truly one of the greats. Anyone who does not know his music, play a few of his recordings and you will see how his style becomes a late relaxed evening and seduces your pleasure zones.
OUTSTANDING tribute Goldfinch and a must for my favs.

So true - one of the advantages of painting a sky scene is that no one can ever say you\'ve got it wrong.

So true. It has been a while since i have visited some of the places i used to think of as being oh so familiar. Each of my last visits revealed a change... i\'m looking forward to seeing many more changes in familiar places. Thank you for encouraging thoughts.

ANGELA HERE - GOOD AFTERNOON - Uncle Andy - loved the music so so soothing. When I was at Schol in London I loved Ballet and it taught me about the Mobility - Flexibility & Control of the Human Body which is an importnat aspect of my Profession - PERFECTION.
Brian & I enjoyed a long Nature walk after lunch (white Rioja - poached salmon - He spoils me - and sticky chocolate pudding - and Stilton with Ground Coffee) It was still warm with hazy sunshine - so lots of butterflies and bluebells. Each season is a blessing. Thanks for your lovely *Ode to Nature* today.
Love to You & Yours

A comforting write Gold \'comfort\' in the sense of \'strengthen\' and \'solace\'.
In Psalm 23 there is the rod and staff of the good Shepherd, which comforts us - sometimes with a prod? Like a kick up the backside? Who\'s going round kicking sheep?!
Also the staff to draw us onwards - hooked around our neck at times.

No Regrets.
dusk arising said:
What point in having regret? Placed similarly again with the character of yesterdays you would you have chosen differently? Doubtful. But where a wiser decision can be seen with the benefit of hindsight, regret is easily dispelled with the knowledge that one is here today with a positive outlook and most importantly a smile in ones soul.
