Bygone times. We collected our grandson from school yesterday and there were several waiting parents on their iphones. What were they doing? texting? Looking at the internet? I\'ve no idea but how sad that they were totally oblivious and relied on their children finding them rather than looking out for their children. Sad times.

You certainly write them Goldfinch!.
Do you ever wonder about how receptive to poetry most people are? In my mind most regard poetry as rather effeminate and \'poofter-ish\' so i keep it to myself. Some i believe don\'t see past the need for every line to rhyme.
I think you are very brave giving your poetry to folk, especially strangers.

A good write Gold. This seems so for some (many?). Yet some oldies can still go swanning about, etc, enjoying life, though I don\'t begrudge them if theyare able to do so.
Ahh - the old \'chestnut\' or \'stumbling-block\' (?) about \'Why suffering?\'

This life is the debt for our past deeds. Our personal hell and our heaven. How we react in the present (cause) shall become our future (effect).

Great music, reminds me of how Buddy Holly\'s sound filled my childhood home when my older siste brought home his EP. It got more plays than anything else. To this day i enjoy playing \'Peggy Sue\' on my ukelele having changed the title to \'Ruby-doo\' for my granddaughter.
I don\'t feel like old age is punishing other than my aching knees and back (seeing osteopath today amid various jobs). I\'m pleased with my status of being an experienced and knowledgeable senior in my trade. Though it does worry me that my prospective customers may feel I\'m too old and doddery to do the work.
On reflection i can see how you personally may see ageing as a punishment. Some of the bland reasoning provided by our churches concerning suffering of ageing is more than questionable.

I just read your poem. Really enjoyed. Although I wrote psychedelia and liked the doors, my teens were 70s with glam rock and all that.

Lake Walking.
FineB said:
Hello Goldfinch,
A vivid and lovely poem.
Thank you.
The only time I have heard of people walking on a lake or river for that matter was when I was in Prague and on a boat cruise around the River Vtlava. The guide told us that so many years ago the River froze and people literally walked on it without falling in.
