I too have not been exposed to the game very much. But I do know you Brits are very passionate about the game. And well written Andy.

CRICKET lovely CRICKET ~ It was at Headingly (Yorkshire) where I saw it ! My Dad was a Cricketer and I went to A Boys School so we took it all very seriously and a Test Match lasts 5 days ! Trump would expect to build a Skyscraper in that time and sometimes does ! It\'s good for your Love Life and I could judge \"A Fine Leg\" and \"Bowl A Maiden Over\" or \"Catch Her in Her Slips\" ! Only in a Cricket Commentary (Lords 1976 West Indies v England) could Johnners say \"The Bowler\'s HOLDING ~ The Batsman\'s WILLEY\" Cricket Lovely Cricket ~ Thanks GOD for BREXIT the only place in Europe they play it is CORFU ~ We\'ll get our National Game back ~ AMEN ! Yours Brian (Man with the square leg !).

Describes it well - nothing like a game of cricket on the village green where I enjoy it most - the king of games.

Goldie, my heart goes out to you and your wife! So much is written about love, but you are the living embodiment of real love, of selflessness and strength. And this real love knows no walls!

Yep, great write Gold. In fact, part of a message of a sermon/talk I heard recently.
Oohh, I\'m not asleep in them! Well, it helps seeing the talk on a screen AND hearing it at the same time. I fairly often take notes too, during the talk. Then sometimes am able to form it into a hymn-poem. One to follow soon....
I\'m afraid of crossing some literal bridges. I think I might fall in a river. But that\'s another aspect.

I\'ve visited several prisons in the course of my work and this super sensitive write really brings home the sense of loneliness and entrapment I experienced and which reflects in the situation you so well describe.

Sensitive write Gold. Seems strange climbing back in to prison. I went to a show art a former prison. Had not seen the inside before. Saw Oscar Wilde\'s cell there. Bit ghastly - ground floor was for criminals awaiting execution.

Great, great poem, Goldfinch! There are nights where I wonder the same thing, but obviously without expressing it as eloquently and beautifully as you did here.

Good write here, Goldie.
