Love those changing clouds. I have spent a lot of time in my youth trying to figure what shape each were.

There is an adage among artists that you can never paint a sky incorrectly as there are limitless variations in both form and colour - no one can ever say you\'ve got it wrong. Fine write Andy.

A fine write and clip Gold. I\'m still in a tangle of moments - is it \'today\' now, or \'tomorrow\'? And when was \'yesterday\', etc?! I ended up with a headache, trying to work it all out! lol.

The Cost of Nature.
Laura🌻 said:

Andy,
A great choice of music to accompany your wonderful poem! I enjoyed the read and the Intermezzo!

A message beautifully stated! The best things in life are always with us and they’re definitely not for sale!

The Cost of Nature.
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

THANKS ANDY ~ Love your choice of MUSIC and Cavalleria Rusticana by Mascagni (despite it\'s rather imposing title) is very soothing. Love the philosophy in the Poem ~ there are so so many things that \"Money can\'t Buy\" that t makes one wonder why it is so so important to most people ! I\'ve never bought a lottery ticket or backed a horse and I have no stocks or shares and I have never been \"interested\" in money ! If i was I\'d work for a Drug Company and not in Education ! OK I was born in 1983 into an Upper Working Class Family to caring Parents and I\'ve never been out of work due to a good education and I\'ve never been married or (accidentally) fathered any Children ~ so my needs have always been met ! I budget on MIKAWBERIAN Principles so I am never in debt ~ thank GOD. If we all lived within our means in the UK ~ it would be a much happier place. God promises to supply all my NEEDS ~ not my GREEDS ~ In essence if I hitch my Caravan near a Stream Nature provides all the basics Water ~ Oxygen ~ Heat & Light ~ Soil and Wood ~ all I need is a Rabbit ~ Edible Roots and something to cook them in. I smile a lot so people buy my CLOTHES PEGS and carved Wooden Animals etc ! I have RUSTIC (Rusticana) CHIVALRY (Cavalleria) ~ AMEN
Thanks for sharing ~ Yours BRIAN ~ A Gypsy @ Heart !

Lorna said:

I love these sentiments! I so agree Andy - in fact we must be on the same track today because my entry - while not so beautiful - is all about \"too much\"... you often play music that I have \"heard\" but not really \"listened to\" or didn\'t take note of what it was..... this was one of those so I\'m paying attention now!

Oh dear and she\'s there every time you shop! ha ha.... So you pay twice for your groceries! The music really made her come alive and I\'m glad she\'s there and not here!

YAKKITY YAK YAK YAK ~ When God made ADAM he created an introspective non talker ! EVE was just the opposite a non-stop talker ! When I\'m sitting in the Park I like to meditate but not Angela ~ she quickly finds another Lady an they gossip non-stop like Sisters and they\'ve only just met ~ amazing !
Its always LADIES on the check-out they fit neatly in the slot ! And they chatter just like WYNTON playing MOTO PERPETUO ! Thanks for sharing ~ Please check my latest FUSION # GOOD HABITS ~ BAD HABITS ? Yours BRIAN

Andy,
A great write and the perfect instrumental piece to showcase it!

I guess we have all come across those individuals who are blessed with verbal diarrhea!

I enjoyed listening to the talented Wynton Marsalis! Not only is he an international acclaimed musician, but he is also a great humanitarian!

Probably a load of old gossip! Shoppers were huffing and puffing in long queues in a shop, as they had not got enough tills open, and no self-service tills there either.
It\'s a pain if you have one or two items, and the person in front has about 3,647 items! Did you play the game \'Guess the quickest queue to get in to, to be served?\'

Michael Edwards said:

I know the situation well. It\'s even worse when someone in front of you strikes up a conversation with her and holds everyone up. great write Andy.

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!

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

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

Nicholas Browning said:

\"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.
