Andy,
A beautiful and poignant write! We do need to see and hear lightning and thunder to appreciate nature’s world in its quiet harmonious state! Listening to the music was so peaceful and magical!

Ahhhh ANDY The great Alexander Borodin ~ Chemist and Composer famous for his work on ALDEHYDES (RCHO) and the opera Prince Igor ! He is a favorite of mine because as a Professor of Chemistry his chosen sphere of research was Organic Synthesis which is my sphere also ! He is also famous for his string quartets ~ his music has a haunting natural quality ! In the 21st C I would contend that Scientists are the best educated People because we understand the Universe (Thanks to the late Professor Stephen Hawking) but also Art ~ Music and Literature & Poetry as well ! Love the cadence in your poem ~ delightful ! Yours Brian ~ Poet & fellow Scientist ! Please check my Tribute to HMQ ~ Thanks BRIAN

\"God is in his heaven, and all\'s right with the world.\" - A quote from Robert Browning. This came to mind when I read this. A beautiful incantation of nature\'s wondrous euphoria.

Andy,
So many emotions and feelings evoked while reading your poem! I envisioned a woman wanting to be alone in her own world!
I was intrigued by your note that you came across this idea from reading the book “The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society “ by Mary Ann Shaffer!
It peeked my curiosity. I decided to research it! What an amazing story! Also found out it was made into a film that was released yesterday!
So when you say “she” in the poem, are you referencing the island and its residents during the WWII German occupation of Guernsey?

I agree with Lee - a fine work.
And thanks for not having that awful wobbly thing at the top - I decided not to use it but thought I was alone.

A fine write Gold. I read one description of hell, apart from whether it has fire and flames or not. The article said hell is like reaching out for something we want (rather than \'need\') and it always eluding our grasp - tantalising, taunting, etc, for ever.
I would probably dream of reaching for a pint(!) of sherry. lol.

Andy,
You had me going...till the end! I thought you were really going to enjoy that pint and do it your way. Sinatra certainly did it his way! He was something else...especially in person! I’ll never forget the time I saw him in Patsy’s restaurant! That was a vision!

A lovely write and music clip Gold.
Meanwhile, I chose the wrong day for it:
Trampling on through muddy woods
Rain pouring down
Soggy and sodden, I wish I had
Not walked, but taken the bus to town!
heehee
