Somehow this reminds me of the native americans in those old westerns we used to watch \"white man looks but does not see\".
Pearl of wisdom from you today.

I\'m terrible - I can\'t stand small talk so although I may nod I often don\'t take in what is being said . Fine write

A fine write Gold. There\'s similar Bible verses:
\'Hear (keep on hearing), but do not understand;
See (keep on seeing), but do not perceive\'. (Isaiah 6 v.9,10).
I read that it\'s a Jewish idiom, where the outcome is expressed as if it was the intention, for those who continued to only hear God\'s words but did not listen, and so did not do the words, did not put them into action.

A fine write Gold. I could be more evangelistic! Write poem stanzas in my Christmas cards. I better start now then (October)!
How\'s the 1066 prep going? We\'ll see my brother and his girlfriend there. We\'ll let relatives in specially, though they were not there in person in 1066.

Andy,

Spot on with your message! I first witnessed what you’ve masterfully described years ago in San Francisco in a Starbucks coffee house...and years later in my home! So we, as a family, had to set up some rules concerning these modern devices!

Thank you for sharing the awesome video! Freddie Mercury and his collaborations...Iconic to say the least!

My love to Joyce and to you!

Bring back the art of interaction - these damn devices seem to rule lives. Fine write and what a sad loss they both are.

Infinite Clouds.
Tamara Beryl Latham - The Poet said:

A really well-written poem that brings back memories to most of your readers. Never got to see Aida in Verona, so the video was great. Wow! Impressive that you used to perform in the orchestra years ago, and a trumpet solo no less. That\'s something you will never forget.

Your poems touch the readers\' heartstrings. Thanks for sharing! :)

Time, the great enigma.
I like this, you\'ve encapsulated an everyday experience and given the chance to marvel at somethings which, though we take them for granted, are quite extraordinary.

A fine write and clip Gold. Erm, but the clouds did not change their formation at all yesterday - it rained all day. Brrr!
