Music In My Soul.
TrystanBehm said:
I really like this - I couldn\'t exist without music, or at least not exist that way I want to. Your poem reminded me of the below quote. Great write!
Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything - Plato

Thanks for this Goldfinch! I LOVE the music - you have introduced me to some I didn\'t know. I\'ll go find his \"stuff\"!

A fine write Gold. What can be annoying is a tune in our mind that we don\'t want. Some insane ditty or jangle - or hearing me sing! heehee.

I live in the States, we don\'t walk, we drive, so the longest drive will lead us into sunlight, most likely the sunset at the Pacific coast in California!
Love your poem, Goldie!

I said it before, Goldie, I admire you. Your love for her shines through every day, and your faith does and will help you. But, you are only human, and there are days when even the strongest man needs to rest, needs to recharge the batteries. There are days when even the strongest believer has doubts and questions.

God bless you Andy for your devotion to your wife and faith. Alzheimer\'s disease is a sad and tragic thing to have, and I believe its not God\'s intention for anyone to be affected by its stealing of memory and personality. Its as many other things in our world that we have no reasons why they are there, but must endure. God\'s gift to your wife is you Andy. He knew you would give her the best possible care available. Give to her your best before sending her back to him. From your loving arms to God\'s loving arms.

So very moving this honest appeal for help dear friend - - wishing you rest and peace while your wife is being cared for elsewhere. Life can be such a trial at times. A powerful write.

My heart goes out to you my friend. I think you show us here the torture youre enduring.
Hold that faith firmly in your heart. None of us know what awaits us ahead but i know i wouldnt want to be without my firm belief.
Make use of this respite time, you are still a warm sentient being, do things which bring some joy.
It feels odd to say tis goes into my favourites but i\'m so moved by your words that it must go there.

aaw bless you and i am so sorry for your wife....i am not sure if it is punishment , i guess bad things happen in life but i can understand why you say this , it is very unfair , this illness she has and of course it affects you , so sorry , its not fair at all . why do so many unfair things happen to people? i honestly do not know , but i can say i have had the same type of questions about my own life with all of my hurt which i have had to endure, it also makes me feel like i am being punished, for what i do not know. and although i am not a huge believer in god, my opinion is... bad things happen to people in life and god does not control what does and does not happen , its just life, its cruel and bad things happen . i am sorry for you and your wifes pain

A sensitive write Gold. It\'s easy to give \'pat\' answers, if we have any. We may only then appear \'super-spiritual\'.
I don\'t know what I would have done, e.g. in Peter\'s shoes. Probably run away with him and the other disciples at Jesus\' trial. In that case, Jesus knew they would run away.
Hope you find some true Christian support. I admit I play \'going to church\' a bit, and may not get too involved there. Then I feel bad if I genuinely need to ask for help - but I should not feel bad really.

And yes, as one Vicar said in a farewell sermon: Look up! He was rather military. Bit difficult for females to relate to him.

Good write Gold. Do you know the one? (I forgot some of it):
\"Two men in a dungeon - with a window in it!
One looked down, one looked up
One saw mud, the other saw stars\"

I guess you could have said \'shit\', but that wouldn\'t have changed much. While you certainly have artistic freedom, and while I do love your poem, I can see the point Charlotte made. Otherwise incredibly funny and great writing!

I like the term \'Bovine excretia\' but what the heck. Whatever, a great fun read for a Friday (or any day come to that) .

i find the title a little off- putting and that word excrement , its a constructive criticsm .. by far overall this is a great piece of writing which i loved , but that word is unpleasant , and would be better without it
