a fine write Gold. I wondered why it is called the Fall, then I fell over on a pile of slippery leaves. Doh!

What wit you have. I\'m still laughing. :-)
This poem is great and it emphasizes that there is no need for a clock.
Don\'t ever stop writing.

There\'s a new version of that \'joke\' around here. One is awakened by the thundering noise of a low flying helicopter. It\'s 2.40a.m. on a saturday morning and the police helicopter is serving the community again.
Why are police helicopters some of the loudest? We often see much, much quieter ones in the sky heading for the Droitwich heliport.

Andy ,
Your write was great!
That clip was hilarious!
It’s not easy for children to learn how to tell time! Digital watches were out of the question for my children until they learned to tell time from an analog clock/watch!
When I watched the clip, I noticed Dave Allen’s left hand! Half of his index finger was missing. Do you know what happened?
My love to Joyce and you!

Thanks UNCLE ANDY ~ Brian & I love GLEN MILLER and Brians talk on Glen to Seniors is very moving. I enjoyed the UK GM Tribute Band before I went to N Z and I cried when I thought of his incredible talent disappeared in the English Channel when he was on his way to conduct a concert to celebrate the Liberation of Paris in WW2. Brian & I both love the Moon and believe it has a bigger influence on Human Life & Love far in excess in its Divine role as a Night Light and a controller of the Tides. It is much bigger and much closer to Planet Earth and Scientists are still unsure of its origin : The Scriptures say it was specifically created by GOD to do what it perfectly does ! Venus does not have a MOON and MARS has two small ones the size of the Isle of White. Brian has taught me a lot about the COSMOS ~ AMEN Thanks for sharing : Blessings & Love to You & Joyce : ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

A comforting write Gold. A hymn line: \'Thou silver moon with softer gleam\', i.e. softer than \'Thou burning sun with golden beam\'.

Andy,
Your write is truly heartbreaking! I can empathize with your frustration! I’m with my aunt at the moment! She had hip surgery! Everything was going well until four days ago! She fell while going to the WC! I was right in the next room. She didn’t call me to help her. She did not want to disturb me...she said. It would’ve been better if she had! She injured her back! The pain is unbearable! She screams most of the times...night and day! I feel helpless. I wish I could make it better for her!
She’s a devout Catholic...but let me tell you, she has been cursing her God like never before! I never heard her so against Him! I never heard her curse till now! She implores Him to take her out of her misery! I wish I could do more for her. I wish I could take her pain away! There’s not much more I can do! I talk to her constantly to distract her from her suffering! It works for a little while! Then her wailing and moaning take over! Very frustrating! Patience (on my part) must prevail!
So I have some understanding of your situation! What you do for Joyce is immeasurable! You are truly an amazing man!
My love to Joyce and to you!

Michael Edwards said:
When working I was told by the Hospital Chaplain that I would at some time in my life find God or turn towards him. I nearly lost my dear Jeanne 6 years ago when she had a 1 in 5 chance of surviving radical cancer surgery - she is still with me and in total remission. I have just survived cardiac arrest only a few days ago. Despite all this I still have to experience the prophesy of the Chaplain. That is not to say that I don\'t recognise and sympathise with the position you are in Andy - My heart feels for you and this fine write puts it all in perspective.

O UNCLE ANDY : My Spanish Heart weeps for You and Joyce and I pray for you 24/7 for both RELEASE & PATIENCE ! When we rail at GOD he is never offended because it is a sign that we believe He can do a Miracle and He can lift us up. I CAN EMPATHISE : I have seen the scourge of DEMENTIA in my own Extended Family and some of my Clients : especially Home visits : some have DEMENTIA (or their Partner) and I experience their sorrow & anger first hand. Your devotion to JOYCE has been a great inspiration to BRIAN & I because neither of us know what we will have to face in 30 or 40 years time. Stay close to GOD and He will direct your paths. Rest assured that neither Brian or I are shocked or offended by you outburst : it just makes us love JOYCE & Yourself even more : AMEN
Prayers : Love & Blessings ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Love JOHNNY CASH : Great Poet & Singer : Great Humanitarian & Christian may he & June RIP : AMEN

Thinking of you both still. I struggle to not give some \'pat\' comment here.
Well, in my less troubled life than some folk, one main reason for missing church is likely to be the weather.
Some say they find comfort, etc in going, but for some it\'s the opposite.
I smile sweetly at times, and the usual \'I\'m OK\' if someone asks \'How are you?\' even if I\'m not OK.
See, now I will post yet another hymn-poem I suppose. I hope they are true of my faith, and not only \'pieces of poetry\'.

A fine write Gold. Doh! Wait until the trees are completely bare, then sweep up? Or have once-a-week tidy up?!
A friend is in a frenzy over a neighbour\'s eucalyptus tree. Branches overhang in his garden, and he as to keep sweeping up leaves. He says he will chop down that ***** tree!

One of my all time favourites, Miles interpretation of Autumn Leaves, surprisingly released on a Cannonball Adderley LP of the era. His interpretation of \'Summertime\' is also up there with my all time favourites.
Enjoyed reading your piece. Reminded me that on Monday i was in the park adjoining York Minster watching them gather the fallen leaves. In reflective mood, farewell to another season... contemplating the harshness of winter ahead.
