Was it shock, horror, outrage, when the pews were removed?! We\'ve a town church from about the 12th Century. Looks like 1066 (!) on the outside, but modern inside.

Great poem Goldfinch. No matter how stumbling the service is, as long as it gets the message across, everybody is fine. And you DID get the message across.

Doh! good write G/F. It\'s a killer if a verse of a hymn is omitted, and not everyone remembers. \'Omit the starred verses\' as in some hymn-books. Then we\'re all singing from the same sheet, but singing different verses between us!
Also, some \'round\'s that go wrong, can \'murder\' a song. I hate them.

Makes you wonder surrounded by such beauty. I\'m sure none of us are insignificant though. Lovely writing.

\"I reach the top of the hill and stop\"
How significant is this.
All the eternal space around you has been there the same all the time, but you climb all the way from the bottom to the top, kept them beneath your feet.
Significant writing.

PS: I have Acrophobia, when I read your poem, I had to sit back and hold my chair arm tight. :)

Oh no.... you\'re one of gods chosen sir and blessed with a voice we need to hear along with countless other talents of which we know little or nothing. Of all the wonderous things there are in creation, if we were to start taking things away we would lessen it. My belief is that we are all here to find our path thru thhis existence and into the next. Yes you are significant.

Oh! How I like your writing. So simple and full of truth. It seems to me that you are a wise man full of autonomy. Thanks for sharing.

Louis Gibbs said:

Considering that the \"vastness of nature\" and the \"infinite universe\" are mere props on the stage that we, as aspects of Creator, have created upon which to act out our roles ... I\'d say it was the other way around.
A fine, thought provoking poem, Goldie!

Beautiful music as the words are being read - - - none of us who are gifted with life are insignificant my friend -and this verse is a lovely reminder of that divine blessing.

I agree with sue, Kat, and Michael.
While we are totally insignificant when compared to the Universe, we are very significant to the people who love us.
Love your poem!

We are all important stitches in life\'s tapestry - the value drops for each one missing - or so the Auctioneers tell me. Good write Andy.

Enjoyed reading this. I love walking somewhere that gives you such a view - it dies remind you how big the world is - but if it\'s only you there I get an overwhelming sense of cleanliness and peace. Sorry rambling on! As for being significant we are all that to someone or some place!

Perspective is a wonderful thing, isn\'t it? Allows you to see what you need to see.

orchidee said:

Oohh no - very significant, of great value, can\'t do without you, etc, etc. Now one reason there is eternal space is so there\'s enough room to escape from me singing! You can hear me at least as far as Mars. heehee.

Im thinking this metal bird had slipped from the memory of your good lady as you had mentioned before. How great to see the amusement in this event and bring it before us with your style sir. I love the way you tell us your tails.

Cute and fun. Your picture is stunning. Lovely read. We have a fake eaglet on our garden and I love to see the real eaglets eating together with the pvc one.

A fine write Gold. It\'s good if we can nurse back an injured bird. Hmm, I thought a cat was attacking a bird, until the cat did not move. it was a statue. doh! (too much sherry, Orchi).
