So much empathy for you my friend. Some wonderful words are written and the words of this song seem so fitting for your plight.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

Thanks UNCLE ANDY ~ Brian here ! Thanks for a beautiful SONG (Classical Folk !) and an equally beautiful POEM ! Angela & I can empathise (in a small way) because of our mutually agreed separation (11k miles) for 15 months. But we both know (DV) that come OCTOBER we will be together for time & eternity ! I am sad (like you) on Days which offer wonderful opportunities to do wonderful things together which I either have to forgo or do without Angela. Alas for Joyce & Yourself those times are gone forever and we are all SAD for you. Thanks for caring & sharing !

Blessings & Peace for YOU & JOYCE
Yours BRIAN 💙💙💙💙💙

With your situation, some of the words of the song seem reversed, where one has found one\'s love (person). \'I guess they understand….\'
Hope we do. Now I can\'t see to write more, in this haze of tears.

Well in Los Angeles, it\'s the same, every day, so now we stopped saying, \"it\'s just not my day\", and take everyday in a stride.

Good one thou.

I know that feeling of being hemmed in while road-business goes on in its interminable way - - frustrating to say the least dear Andy.

Michael Edwards said:

I recognise this - my biggest complaint is a local roundabout which is effectively a tee junction. The number of times I have arrived there not sure if a car coming in the opposite direction is going straight ahead or turning right and having to sit there waiting unsure of their intentions - grrr. . So few motorists observe the highway code when it comes to signalling at roundabouts. Great write Andy.

orchidee said:

Nor mine. A lady and I were on a pedestrian crossing. Before we got half-way across, a car did not stop for us. We give them dirty looks, but they may go too fast to even see us.
Must do something about speed humps maybe, on a certain road. Make it a raised crossing, like a speed bump. That\'ll shake up the drivers that don\'t stop.

Yes indeed. One said \'Live so as to be missed\' (when you pop off): Robert Murray McCheyne. OK, I added the words in brackets.
They\'ll miss my singing, but they\'ll rejoice in the silence! heehee.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

HI UNCLE ANDY : ANGELA HERE : Missed your Musings & Music. Several of Mine & Brians extended Familes are good Pianists and I try ! Love CHOPIN and *Drawing Room Soirees !\" The Piano can be a very intimate instrument !
TIME &TIDE wait for no Man (or Woman) and BRIAN & I have both mused on the fact that ever Human gets 24 hours (gratis) every day. Some like the Mad March Hare are always in a hurry and others like Bagpuss always have time to spare ! Is it a question of ORGANISATION ? Im very organised but some days seem to need 48 Hours !

Blessings & Peace to you & Joyce
Love as always ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Great observation Andy
Where does the time go?
Where does the rubber go from car tyres?
Where do the clouds go when it doesn\'t rain
Where do odd socks go
I guess we\'ll never know

You enjoying yourself then? Does time go quickly when one is enjoying oneself, as the saying goes?
All I know is time went very slowly in 1066. Not an enjoyable time, cos I turned up!

Where time goes no man knows
Day then night
dark then light
Or is it the other way round?
