Fear of Flying.
orchidee said:
A fine write Gold. Can you recall any flying in 1066? Did spy planes scan the land for the battle plans of the enemy?

I know right? There\'s tons of debris, straws and junk floating around in huge debris fields in the ocean but we are cleaning up space. Great write, Andy!

Thanks UNCLE ANDY ~ I read that and I thought of me cleaning the leaves form my Mum\'s pond ~ with a NET which was invented 1000\'s of years ago ! New Zealand is much cleaner than the UK due to the fact that they are very conservation minded but also the fact that NZ has the same area as the UK but 15 times fewer |PEOPLE ~ PEOPLE cause LITTER ! I started work @ 16 and it annoys me that there are 100\'s of ABLE BODIED scroungers on BENEFITS ~ which the Streets are unswept and the Fruit unpicked ~ Its a MAD MAD MAD World ! Love BOWIE a true GENIUS ~ sadly missed ! Blessings BRIAN ~ ANGELA sends Her Love to JOYCE XXXX

Was that us two? Did we forget to empty the dustbins when we were on the moon? I recall, as you wrote, of us meeting the earthlings who landed there in 1969. But meanwhile - I dread visiting some public toilets. It can be a horror show and assault the senses. it\'s too much info to give more detail!

The Day Begins.

Wet and windy i expect you will awaken to on Thursday.
Who cares about the weather here, at least we have shelter. Poor devils around the planet are suffering all sorts of perils. What do you reckon is wrong with our weather Goldfinch? Will it improve post brexit?

If you have the perception of natural thought enabling you not to be too concerned about what each day is going to be like. The beauty of life shines through this poem and I love the way you have expressed your feeling for every day which in which you believe to be a good day.

Every day a bonus - always plan something - never say at the start of each day \'What shall I do today?\' you should have planned it out to make the most of it.

A good write Gold. Erm, yes, it does help to open our eyes first thing! Bit like plugging in the telly and switching the mains socket on. Yep, I reckon it helps to switch it on first. Wondered why I was looking at a blank telly all day. Hmm. lol.

Any other final line would simply not be cricket sir! You made this game, one which i find intensely boring, quite quite readable and exciting.
A really good example of your writing prowess Goldfinch. This certainly has the \'unputdownable\' quality. One has to see it thru to the finish.
Excellent.

Thanks ANDY ~ Tenors (and Tenners) always tug @ the string of my HEART. \"Cricket Lovely Cricket it was at Liverpool where I first saw it ~ Lancashire always Crème Tea de la Crème Tea !\" My Dad was a great Cricketer so I carried his BAT and played for the 1st 11 @ School ~ AMEN ! I love CRICKET in all its EDWARDIAN GLORY of Whites & Pads & Gloves & Stumps & Bright red (or is it Pink ?) BALLS. For most Schools in the 21st C (except the GRAMMAR & PUBLIC) it is too elitist ~ slow ~ expensive & academic etc ~ so like so many EXCELLENT THINGS it is dying. I started playing (in earnest) in the late 90\'s but I could see its demise. Our main opponents were other GRAMMARS & the PUBLIC SECTOR. A proper GAME of CRICKET (like CHESS) is always a BATTLE and its not over until the Cucumber Sandwiches and Warm Beer appears ~ Prepared of course by Rotund Ladies who do sing (G & S !) Your elegant ode captures the essence of REAL VILLAGE CRICKET on such Fields was the BRITISH FIGHTING SPIRIT forged. This poem has made me take my BAT out and OIL it ! Thanks for sharing Yours as ever BRIAN ~ ANGELA send her love to JOYCE XXXX

Somehow the beauty of this wonderful life is maimed by the loss of what was. We can only try to imagine the state of torment you are in.
I genuinely wish you every strength in these awful times.
A very touching, upsetting piece today Goldfinch.

ANGELA HERE 9:30 PM IN AUCKLAND! Love John Williams Film Scores and the Film this rendition has been very moving. BRIAN & I have been to Auschwitz and I cried all the time. In essence this piece of MUSIC is an apt compliment to your very moving Poem. Brian & I are sad because 11,500 is a lot of miles to bridge and it will be April 2019 when we can hug & kiss again! BUT we will both be able to fully enjoy each other. Your Poem reminds us of the Beauty and Enjoyment of Music - Art - Literature : BUT when we cant share it with the ONE we Love (for what ever reason) it becomes Discord - Pastiche - Words without worth. I pray that you and your BELOVED JOYCE are still able to communicate on a HIGHER PLANE! Love & Every Blessing ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡
