The Cards of Life.

Not a certain Trump? You are hob-nobbing with politicians? I could. The PM goes to a local-ish church with her hubby! Would there be any point meeting her one Sunday over coffee after the service?!

Andy,
A great clip! I enjoyed listening to the birds! They’re magical!
I let my mom listen to the whole hour of “Garden birds, blackbird song. Sounds of Nature Blackbird 1 hour of Blackbird’s Song”! She enjoyed it...didn’t close her eyes once!
Interesting Fibonacci sequence! Great work!

They may eventually come to follow you like a dog. Doesn\'t take them long to figure where their sustenance is coming from.

Loved this and I\'m laughing Andy because I faithfully feed the birds BUT we have a roaming bear who circulates in the warmer months so at night I have to take the feeders inside or he destroys them (I\'ve never seen him - my neighbor has - he is 6 feet high standing according to him - so never want to see him either!).... In winter I faithfully trudge out there in covered nightwear to shovel around the feeder so they can get to the fallen seed - and throw down extra on the ground for the squirrels and chipmunks... but can\'t do that in summer because of the wild turkeys that flock and hog the area if I do......... baffles on the birdstand of course to keep squirrels out of the actual feeder....... a lot of fun figuring out all this wild life!

A lovely write and clip Gold. We have pigeons (maybe a family), magpies, and big kestrels. The other birds fly off when they swoop down.

dusk arising said:

You have the rare gift of showing us the richness of so many facets of love when you bare your soul in the written word.
I hope you collate your work so that your grandchildren are able to look back to the fineness from whence they came.
A truly moving write today.

Garden Love.
orchidee said:

A lovely write Gold. Some healing, in a measure maybe, through it. But not boiling - I only lasted 10 minutes in the garden one scorching day! That\'ll be one day back in 1066 - you remember it?!

Michael Edwards said:

What a lovely sentimental write and I love the music - I can recall listening to it during a slow drive with my own dear wife through the White mountains in Southern Spain - memories.

The Old Man by the River.
Gary Edward Geraci said:

Your poem conjures up the meaning of our existence: we were created for Love. In the Christian tradition this is most eminently shared through the “flowing waters” of the Holy Spirit, born of the Father, through Christ our Lord. Great piece - I appreciate the reflection your poem invited me to...

Laura🌻 said:

Andy,
A super write! As I was reading your poem, I could sense that it was about you...the ending confirmed it! I enjoyed the video. She has a terrific voice!

I researched her and listened to the video of her performance on the day her husband died where she announced his passing to the audience after she had finished performing!

The Old Man by the River.
dusk arising said:

Your river, my river, all rivers. Rivers of souls perpetually inspiring, flowing timelessly but soaking up our time in this existence. Time of peace and reflection as can be read in your meaningful piece today. Why are we so drawn to bodies of water to contemplate our existence.

The Old Man by the River.
orchidee said:

A fine write Gold. We have river named \'old River\' not too far from us. Children were enjoying playing in the Ford - closed to traffic as it\'s too large to cross.
How old are ya exactly then? Millions of years old, like me? Since 1066 anyway. heehee.

dusk arising said:

I can see you like playing with words as much as i do.
Strange how removing a gapbetween two words alters the meaning completely - for unless the gap after the third letter was removed - would you allow a loved one to enter a door with \'Therapist\' written on it?
Bit of an eyeopener.
