What is Love?
dusk arising said:

Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail.

excerpt from NKJV .. I always thought this was a good description of some of loves facets.

Your words are true, it is not of this world... but would we be richer if love encompassed this world?

A fine write Gold.
Ahh, I was probably in that clip. Around about that year I sort of gave up following \'Top of the Pops\'. It got trashy later on, about 1995 onwards I think!
Much singing in 1066?

THANKS ANDY ~ Thanks for including the SATIE in Classical Guitar, my favourite instrument ! I have seen & heard JOHN WILLIAMS ~ awesome ! Having been raised in Liverpool (Walker Art Gallery) I do have an appreciation of many Genres of Art. Your poem is a \"Work of Art\" ! Verse 1. Everything we see (if we move slowly) imprints on our sub-conscious ~ and when we see the same scene (on TV or in a Painting or Photo) our sun-conscious connects. That\'s how we recognise people even after tens of years ! Verse 2. Trees in Windows ~there is always more to stately Homes than initially meets the eye ~ how ingenious ! I love SH\'s one of the UK\'s infinite blessings ~ who need the rest of EUROPE ! The Towers of Eiffel & Pisa and the Gate of Brandenburg and the Parthenon would all look ugly and out of place in the UK ! Verse 3. You liked it then ??? Thanks for sharing ANDY we all enjoyed this one ~ AMEN. The symbiosis of ART & Architecture is always a Pleasure especially Gardens by Capability (might call my Son that !) Brown. Yours as always BRIAN.

Andy,

An awesome write! Your uniqueness of understanding art...whether it be paintings, music, or nature...is incredible!
Listening to the clip, reminded me of the time my son was learning to play the guitar at five years old! The first piece he learned a played for me as a surprise for Motherā€™s Day was ā€œLove Me Tenderā€! Iā€™ll never forget it!

Thank you for sharing and reminding us of this wondrous universe weā€™re fortunate enough to be part of!

Love to Joyce and you!

Great to know that us old codgers can still be gobsmakked by the beauty of natural things around us here in our own backyard of Worcestershire. Croome is on my bucket list.
Gynopodie No 1, probably Eric\'s most popular, i have recordings of by several artists on various instruments ans ensembles but it\'s at it\'s best as a solo piece as here. Gynopodies 2 and 3 are superb too being variations of 1. I seem to recollect these were written for children to learn and perform. Certainly the harmonic progressions across the three were a lesson to me and encouraged me into improv in jazz.
Excellent writing today. Love the repeat theme.

A lovely write and pic Gold. Yes, I go on mini-travels, including some art shows. At one, an artist had painted the church next to the church hall, where there exhibition was held.

I never cease to be amazed by how different artists can interpret a scene so differently and yet they can all capture the heart of the subject - this is a great write Andy and itself captures what the artist was saying through her work. It is such a shame that so many are unable to understand or appreciate art

But you are still glad when it does encroach. Which is more than can be said if my singing encroaches anywhere!
Aww, why do people get out the fly squatter when I sing, as if it\'s some wasp to swat?! heehee.
