dusk arising said:

A guy once hired me as an expert in my field. Later he explained his interpretation of \'expert\'. \'Ex\' is a has-been and \'spurt\' is a drip under pressure.
I thanked him for employing me and assured him he had had his moneys worth.

Andy,

A wonderful write which I enjoyed reading. The woman’s reply was spot on! It reaffirms the importance of independent thinking!

My love to Joyce and you!

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

Thanks UNCLE ANDY : We always love your eclectic choice of Music : Even though we are both very much Adults of the 21st C and are still honing our sensibilities ! Coltrane always delivers a smooth SAX in any ERA : Thanks GOD for Digitally Remastered CDS !
BRIAN and I find that taste and expertise is very much socially : ethnicity & era (age) & gender related related. Because of my childhood (even though I was largely raised in London) I am much more familiar with Spanish Art : Music : Dance : Literature : Culture etc than Brian : but he now has an A-Level in Spanish and is a good student. On the other hand Brian actually understands Scouse Humour & Culture etc. We are both young enough (30 & 35) to appreciate Contemporary Culture and absorb it into our PSYCHE instead of just SAYING \"RUBBISH !\" like many of the 70+ Generation. WE HAVE A LOT IN COMMON : but also much about which we differ : BUT we observe that a balance of AGREEMENT & DISAGREEMENT (Culturewise) results in a positive & exciting marriage : AMEN
Thanks for caring : Blessings & love to you both :
ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

What you like is what is important to you. Experts are just as fallible as any of us.

It is true that opinions differ when viewing anything in the field of art - - we respect that we cannot all think alike and your final line makes that clear Goldi - thanks for sharing this needed reminder.

I was about to say the same, but Fido barked at me on the last line! heehee. A reading and talking dog - I could be famous with him!

It\'s the same for me. I love painting abstracts - they are unpredictable, exciting and I sure love the process of painting them - if others don\'t like them then it\'s tough t*****s

Yes, indeed beauty is very much in the eye of the beholder.. and of course, your summative line most eloquently sums up that particular perspective... ... N

The Day After the Night Before.
Nicholas Browning said:

\"Then the odd word passed between us\". Yeah, it\'s pretty crazy to see just how small a chance can be for you to take it. Don\'t know until you leap, and hey, you leapt. I like the tone of the poem. At first it\'s a little melancholy, but then it shifts. Quite good.

Netashi said:

Ah yes life does through us into a loop and shows us beautiful things. Sounds like you had a swell night I\'m glad to here. Written very well keep up the good work.

PS: The day after the night before my brain hurt now since you threw me for a loop....wait that means today or \"tomorrow\"

One of those poems which you just have to read again - and it gets even better - it really carried me along - super write Andy.

orchidee said:

A fine write Gold. I though ya was gonna get tangled up with that elusive \'tomorrow\' that never comes. When it gets here, it\'s \'today\'. doh!

Love Hate.
Netashi said:

When people start loving power and start using the power of love then there will be true peace. But for now \"peace\" is just us waiting for something bad to happen. Overall the poem is beautifully written, god job keep up the good work.

Love Hate.
dusk arising said:

Love conquers all... but (there\'s always that flipping \'but\' isn\'t there) only for those who are able to feel love.
Love and hate are two close sentiments and i fear many are polarised with hate.
It is difficult to hate anything/anyone once you have learned through love. I fear that it is more difficult to love anything/anyone once one is polarised with hate.

nicely penned, but sadly, the Beatles as good as they are did not get it all right...

Love is the glue of life (sounds like an idea for another poem) - fine writs Andy.

orchidee said:

A fine and true write Gold. A bit like natural days? Almost 16 hours of darkness per day now, and 8 hours of light. Then changing to vice versa, as the year goes on. Super clip too!

Lorna said:

That Brexit is certainly a mess isn\'t it Andy. I don\'t understand why it is so complicated to unravel (or if it is the best thing) - but I think our hideous excuse for a president still tops Brexit for A number one end of the world disasters......... I feel I have to be constantly apologizing for this country. It\'s so embarrassing.

Laura🌻 said:

Andy,

Spot on with your write!
I don’t mean to speak ill of the dead, but ...
“Watch my lips...”
We did...and our taxes were raised!
No matter what country I am in, the same outcry! It seems we’re at their mercy!

My love to Joyce and to you!

Another betrayal - I\'ll write something from the leavers perspective - after all they aren\'t represented in Parliament except for a couple of clowns - Johnson and Rees Mog . Will post tomorrow.

Ahh, I must meet her and her hubby at coffee-time at church. They often go to one about 2 miles from my home - the current PM and her hubby. We could hob-nob!

Together in Paradise.
dusk arising said:

There they were together in paradise, the only discernable sounds were their digestive systems.
Suddenly a greasy baking tray slipped off the draining board and crashed to the floor.
The moment was lost.
