Sunday Lunch to Prepare.
Michael Edwards said:
One of my all-time favourite poems and a super take on it - yes I recognise the ritual of Sunday lunch prep - don\'t forget the fresh mint sauce, garlic, marjoram, bay leaves, rosemary, etcetera depending on the meat.

Personally anything with a front ear seems a step too far to me. I dunno why they replaced \"eee - bah-gum\" with E=Mc2 in the first place - it\'s not poetic.
I found Sarah Vaughn more on the spot as a jazz singer for that era. And of course latterly i\'d invite anyone to better the late Amy Winehouse who took it into a whole new realm - superb!

Enjoyed the write - the mere thought of it all is more than I can comprehend but I guess I\'m not alone.

But didn\'t you and I go further than black holes? At least we there on the moon to meet the first earthlings. And are we (us two) completely human?!
And why was I left in a black hole? I only said \'I\'m gonna sing!\' lol.

Andy,
An awesome scary write!
This reminded me of an old soap opera my mom used to watch...
“DARK SHADOWS”
I will try to avoid the shadows...
just for tonight!
My love to Joyce and you!

Nice one! Yes, there are only two certainties in life - birth and death. Surprising to young people, many older folk are not afraid of their death. Actually how they die is a different matter though.
I don\'t think i would like to be scared into death by the death character in your poem.

ANGELA HERE : WOW Uncle ANDY : I love October and all the cool visuals ! You always surprise me with your eclectic choice of MUSIC each day ! Its 1:15 pm (Wednesday) here and I am free til 3 pm : so just catching up on comments while BRIAN sleeps ! Harry & Meghan were in AUCKLAND yesterday and Ruth & I were able to see them from a distance. That will be the subject of my POEM tomorrow. IT is such a Blessing to have a Daughter : I found your poem very moving !
Falling Leaves have many connotations in Life & Love. I have heard say that as you handle the cascading leaves it means: Lots of money will PASS THROUGH YOUR HANDS ! That sure was your experience ! The second verse \"Wishes Granted\" is very special ! I like your choice ! Blessings & Love to JOYCE & Yourself : ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡

One if our friends had a notice in his hallway which went something like “Now that you have reached an age where you can support yourselves you are encouraged so to do!”

An old song suggested \'catch a falling star and put it in your pocket, never let it fade away\'.
Plain to see the star you hold has not faded Goldfinch.
I share your wishes as i\'m sure do most here. I know i have written on this same subject \"shall we know peace when she comes, this stranger to our land\"
Walk by your river in peace.

Excellent write G so many meanings here for us all (Of a certain age) the soul that feeds the sea. The calm in the circle of life. The constant in nature

Oh you\'ve made my day - one of my all time favourite singers - the sexiest voice on vinyl. And a super meditative write - I am not one for looking back on my life and what once was (that just makes me so depressed) but I do like reflecting on the joys of being alive - a knowingness - a great write Andy.

Less frequent your river walks may be but both you and the river know it is still there when you need it.
Reflecting upon what i have just written here i suspect that the time of most need are these challenging days you live in. May i suggest gentle meditation upon your riverbank within your minds eye. Shut off and remind yourself of the things which surround you upon the riverbank.... you can be there in mind.... meditate as if you were looking at your river a few feet away.

A meditative write Gold, and true. I get to a River or two, more likely on warm/mild days. Otherwise I rush along, and don\'t really see much, if it\'s too chilly.
Maybe it helped you gather thoughts, strength, etc, as you then returned to \'everyday life\'.

Well it had to be done,
The duvet cover needed changing.
I had lost the knack,
I gave up after three hours,
I still couldn\'t find
The arm holes.
