Goldie, this one is precious and funny. Goes to show that life is all about expectations. Sometimes the brain tells you one thing when reality is another. Good write!
I assume \'Specsavers\' is maybe a second-hand store like Goodwill over here.

Yes, I was rather puzzled at the mention of Specsavers, but that\'s ok. Think I get the idea of it. Great write Goldie.

Oh lol, good write Gold. At one rather eccentric church they had two collections. One was literally a hat passed round! But no surprise really. Some there are potty enough for anything! You know, usual things for a Vicar\'s leaving-do: two African warriors with war paint yelling ooh-arggh and all that rubbish. The Vicar was embarrassed, though a bit eccentric too himself.

Thank you, Goldfinch, for both the music and the poem. Music, writing, painting, sculpting...art in all its different forms and shapes is a gift of the Gods! Also am quite taken with these last three lines. Mind you, the rest of the poem is great too, but the last three lines do stand out.

So true Goldie. I listened to the pianist playing in the video and I could see the similarity between his playing and your writing. The notes of the piano are as to the words you pen, emotional and poetic. Excellent write Goldie.

Music IS powerful! It can persuade us to do things, fall in love, etc. As Michael said, I love the last three lines. Wonderful!

THREE minutes without OXYGEN
THREE days without WATER
THREE weeks without FOOD
Yes indeed ANDY Water is an essential for like God was very lavish with H2O when he created Planet Earth and there is a Lake Windermere (11 sq miles and 50ft deep) for every person ! BUT distribution of potable water is the problem ! Millions in Developing Countries don\'t have access to the pure clean water that we wash our cars with ~ we must conserve our water and support WATER AID ! Thanks for Caring ! The TRINITY should get a NOBEL PRIZE for designing the WATER CYCLE ~ AWESOME ! BRIAN

A great poem Gold
to remind us of a precious and a necessity of life! Many of us do take it for granted and waste so much of it! It’s shameful and sinful!
Thank you!

I believe we take water for granted because there are so many poor and developing countries that struggle to find clean drinking water. Fine write GF! Such a simple thing we don\'t give much thought to usually. Great message
