So, so true. We all make bad decisions. We sometimes realize it right after doing it. Then there are the mistakes that are not known until later. Thanks Goldie!!

You most definitely have an affinity with the Avon. Todays write feels like your expression of a mental peace its nearness gives.

A fine write Gold. Someone asked me direction to a river - I was heading there. I told them, then they seemed to go in opposite direction. But then I saw them by the river on part of another route - and said \'cooeee, we meet again\'! (did I?). lol.

Very nice, G. My peace is often interrupted at the drumming of a pileated woodpecker on an old hollow tree!

Thanks ANDY for anther spell o\' Guillaume Tell ! The Good Book says there will 30 minutes of silence in Heaven ~ but never again on Earth ! There is sound that soothes (like Sinding) but most 21st C sound grates. Thanks for caring ~ Yours B & A

We all enjoy the convenience of our services laid into our homes, take them for granted even.But they come in concealed beneath that tarmac highway.
One man\'s blissful relaxation in the comforts of home is possible because another man dug the road up!
You could have been in bed.
As an early riser you\'ll be aware of how many daylight hours are available to the working man these summer mornings. Farmers are about the only manual workers who utilise them.

Aww, your peace was shattered!
Someone on a bus, seemed to be talking and laughing to herself. Had some phone wire in her ear. It was a peaceful ride - when she got off the bus! Horrible cackling and jabbering on it was.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

ANDY ~ First let me thank you for showcasing the UNIQUE PATSY CLINE born 1932 ~ died 1963 aged just 30 (Plane Crash). A unique voice and her recording of Willy Nelson\'s CRAZY is one of the greatest recordings by any female Country Music Star. The pathos in her voice always makes me CRY !
I understand your poem ~ You are not against AA ~ GA ~ CA etc because these habits do ruin Society as a whole and many many individuals ! I support PROLIFE which is Anti-Abortion and Christians Against which is Anti-Dept ! But I deplore POETS ANONYMOUS who would seek to cure POETS of their MUSE ~ we would all die of deprivation. However I would support and GROUP that was ANTI-MODERN POETRY ~ Amen Thanks for caring & Sharing BRIAN & ANGELA

Oh please Andy don\'t go and sit in a therapy group and eat donuts and drink coffee and try to cure yourself....... or we\'ll ALL have to go and I don\'t want to.

Andy,

The only thing that harms is the self serving malicious critic with unconstructive criticism who thinks that their s*** doesn’t stink!

Write on my MPS friend...
you’re one of the best!

Good word there too - anony-wotist! I\'m still trying to say all those \'s\' words - shirts, socks, etc from another poem.

Well, I\'m a \'watchdog\', not anonymous, if any \'naughty\' people don\'t tick poems as 18+, if they should be! Got a terrible loud bark, and might bite too! Down, Rover! Woof!

Some folks just do not understand the need for writing. While others just can\'t stop. You my friend keep feeding your addiction of words. I love to read them!

It certainly is for you. Don\'t ever stop writing because you are a bar of writing gold. Keep hols of your treasure and take care of those people who you write about. A touching piece.

Hearing The Lone Ranger.
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks for your Poem ANDY and the quote which triggered it ! I am familiar with Rossini\'s |~ William Tell Overture but I was born 25 years after the last Lone Ranger Film was made. Consequently for me (being under the age of 40) the tune is a piece of Popular Classical Music and it does NOT invoke the Lone Ranger ~ Silver & Tonto ~ BUT it will now ! Despite what Dan Rather says (which triggered ~ or was that Roy Rogers ~ your Poem) I am NOT an Intellectual Snob ~ just someone under 40 ! Please check our Collaboration Poem On \"Rest ...............!\" ~ Yours Brian & Angela.

Hearing The Lone Ranger.
Laura🌻 said:

Andy,

When I was a little girl and watched “The Lone Ranger” with my dad, what I loved the most was the theme music...at the beginning and at the end! I wasn’t aware then that it was Rossini’s “William Tell Overture”...I discovered it later on! One of my favorites!
It is one of his best known works! After that one, he did more cooking than music! I call him “The Galloping Gourmet”!
Thank you for the memories!

~Laura~

P.S.- my mom still watches all the reruns of “Bonanza” along with “Mr. Ed” and “Rin Tin Tin”!
