I\'m with you - love a glass of red but can\'t get into white. A meal without wine is like a day without sunshine.

Thanks for sharing UNCLE ANDY ! Love the REQUIEM very soothing for SUNDAY at 9:30am (BRIAN) or 9:30pm (ANGELA) ! WE are both interested in the use of wine in Cooking ! I (BRIAN) as Lecturer in Food Science and ANGELA as a Daughter of a Rioja Vitner (Now you know why Im Marrying Her !). I (living alone) do a lot of Slow Cooker ONE POT cooking and Casseroles always call for a spot of VINO. A half bottle is good for a TOT and ONE for the POT. Wine adds Flavour & Savour. Loved the shape & the substance of your ODE !
Blessings & Love & Bon Cuisine to YOU & JOYCE
Yours as always ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Disguising ones alcoholic addiction with food huh? A cheap trick... and on a Sunday too? You\'ll have Orchi guarding the communion wine.
I do miss a good red. I used to enjoy but it is a banned substance since my stomach op of last August.
A great fun write composed over a well oiled cookery session methinks.
Trifle for desert?

My father had a similar timepiece but it began to play up. It would run at half time ond would only ever go \'tick\' never \'tock\'.
Eventually we took it to the repairman a German gentle man who we suspected was ex SS... straight away he put the clock beneath a lamp and said \"Vee haff vays of making you tock!\"

Hello Goldfinch 60.
A wonderful poem. Sometimes when a house is quiet and the hands on a clock tick during those silent moments - a clock has a life and an existence all of its own.
Keep writing

Yes me too with the golden virginia rollies and a wee filter tip. Its longer than ten years i quit. I still have some king edward panatellas knocking around but i dare not think about smoking them.
Have you seen the price of being a smoker now? How can those on benefits afford to smoke...as they do?
I can recall at age ten, smoking ten gold leaf with my pal. We were so grown up we thought LOL.

Good write Gold. We might forget about smoking, or forget it somewhat, since it was banned from certain places. But it still happens - people outside buildings, smoking/tea breaks, etc.

I am lost to the World
With which I used to spend much time
It has for so long known nothing of me
It may well believe that I am dead !
Nor am I at all concerned
If it should think that I am dead
Nor can I deny it !
For truly I am dead to the World
I am dead to the Worlds tumult
And rest in a quiet realm !
I live alone in my Heaven
In my LOVE ~ in my SONG !
Thanks for sharing Uncle Andy ~ Lovely melancholy voice for a melancholy song. I posted a translation because that is in effect the POEM also . It made me so so sad because it is the destiny of many Seniors I know whose roots have perished with the 20th Century ! They have found a quiet realm in a Retirement Home ! Her own departure ~ as outlined in your elegant Poem ~ is reflected in the SONG ~ OK
Blessing & Peace & Love to YOU and JOYCE
Yours as always ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
