Great poem Goldie. Nature inspires us in so many ways. It is a topic that is endless.

A fine write Gold. I looked up, and a thundery-cloud appeared. It blew over though. Not a drop of rain - unfortunately?

Perfection Failed.
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks STEVE ~ The perfect fusion of JAZZ & CLASSICS ~ Like Yehudi Menhuin & Stephan Grapelli ~ is awesome ! Love the message in the Poem ~ However in many walks of life we do strive for perfection and sometimes get near it ! When GOD designed the plants ~ He built in Biosynthetic Pathways to produce the DEEP RED of a Rose or the scent of JASMINE ! You know that using Radioactive tracers we can now examine these pathways ~ thinking God\'s thoughts after HIM. When I worked on Plant biosynthesis and unravelled the route ~ I felt this was perfection because we were exploring the creative Mind of God ~ AMEN ~ Yours BRIAN & ANGELA

There is so much wisdom shared in these words! We do often strife for perfection which is impossible to obtain. Thanks for reminding us we are only human. Great write.

dusk arising said:

Firstly, a big BIG thank you for introducing me to the Classical Jazz Quartet. Wonderful to hear a familiar and famous piece played with feeling by obviously excellent muso\'s. I will definately be investigating them further.
Great writing again today conveying a wholesome message.
Satisfaction with ones achievements along a path of improvement - possibly seeking the mytical goal of perfection - will indeed bring happiness. Being aware of and accepting ones own shortcomings is true self knowledge. In recent years a songwriter penned - in words of admiration - \'your perfect imperfections,\' perhaps bringing the subject more easily into focus.

Agree with your words here Goldi - perfection should not trouble us as we try our best - - love the number you chose of classical jazz - just my choice too and shame they made so few.

That\'ll teach me. At some show I had tot of undiluted 1856 whisky of some sort. Blew me head off!

A fine write Gold. I have heard: \'If you are looking for the perfect church and seem to have found it - don\'t join it. You\'ll only spoil it!\' doh!
You found that perfect whisky? It\'ll be the one without water.

Unbroken Love.
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

HELLO ANDY ~ ANGELA HERE FROM NZ. Its 7am (Wednesday) here and I\'ve just woken up and I always check my Laptop before BREAKFAST and Check MPS to see what BRIAN has been up to! I love the mellowness of Johnny Mathis and this song especially : your Wife has good taste. Your Poem really made me think about TRUE LOVE and how readily it adapts to circumstances which SUPERFICIAL LOVE could never survive. In my LINE as a PHYSIO I deal with patients whose mobility (and often mental capacity) is reduced through STROKES, HEAD INJURIES and SPORTS INJURIES. I have done Counselling Courses with the Church and through the NHS. Part of my Job (alongside the Medical Staff) is to explain to Loved Ones the medium and long term effect on Physical Mobility and Mental Capacity. I have always found that with those Truly in Love they are more able to accept bad scenarios. You have hinted in other poems that there are restrictions in your lives but you accept these graciously because you Mutual Love grows deeper & sweeter \"Day by Day by Day\" ! It encourages me, when you refer to your Lovely Wife as \"MY LOVER\", to believe that the Love BRIAN & I have for each other will survive any vicissitude! Thanks for sharing I\'ll be Crying in the Shower: Love to You & Your Wife ANGELA (NZ) XXXX

The tender feelings that come with true love are evident here in every line Goldi - - - happy the one who has found such a mate in this lonely and troubled world. Saved to my favs.

Such a tender writing my friend may the rest of both your days be as blissfully lovely as the words you used and the songs.

orchidee said:

A sensitive write Gold.
One of the \'mystics\' said (St John Vianney?), or he heard it said to him: \'I look at God and He looks on me, and all is well\'.
Meanwhile - I\'m killing people softly with my songs! heehee.

Love it, nothing left in my mind but blissfulness of a little rhyme.

dusk arising said:

I love it! Lateral thinking.
Actually, when you read some of the wonderful pieces presented here on MPS clearly there are t hose among us who do think outside the box evident by the \'angle\' from which they approach their subject. I like to be surprised by such indirect routes which inspire me to think again.

Escape.
orchidee said:

A fine write Gold. Doh, I saw some items, the reverse of \'keep calm and carry on\'. They said \'Panic and give up!\'
Any escape from my singing room/box, if one enters it? I will lock the door and keep the key if anyone enters. It\'s a torture room! heehee.

Preying in the Choir.
dusk arising said:

I wonder if the congregation notice? Maybe a suggestions box could bring some refreshing hints upon creating a little more joy when the angels sing.
This must be so annoying. I\'d have started an resistence movement myself and got him ousted.
Les, remains my favourite comic, thank you for the fun video.

Preying in the Choir.
orchidee said:

I suppose he\'s staying too? One choir got a bit like the Mafia - or some of them did. \'Do what we say, sing what we want, or else....\' The whole thing has gone now. Some bloke with a guitar replaced him, I heard. There he was every week, like clockwork, like it or not...! (Cries of \'Arrgghhh, not again\'!).Now he\'s gone too.
