Still Human?

I do believe this is a question worthy of active consideration.
Here, on the underside of the world, people who have some say are fond of calling for a \'Royal Commission\'. Why \'Royal\' , you may ask. I have no idea since King Charlie doesn\'t pop down here to preside. Which is just as well, as when the result and recommendations are submitted , all thirty of them, the government of the day select items four and eighteen, then file the rest to be forgotten as quickly as possible. So stop your pleading - you would be lucky to even get a hearing down here...

Still Human?
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Orchi...π€£ I was almost convinced...
CRASH!!
Ozzy bursts through the comment wall dragging Popeye\'s emergency spinach stock.
\"Sharon! My bloody teeth are green!\"
glug...glug...
My apologies to Fido for having to even witness this. And we thought missing the 18+ box was a crisis! Who knew?!?!.
Ol\' Tom is now crying.
And Wan Ken, oi be, singes another one of TomΓ‘s\'s knitworks.
The Baters, of course, lie down...
\"Episode one billion,\" one of them mutters.
Better bring a brolly, my friend. βοΈπ€£π₯¬π€π

You made me laugh Orchi and that deserves a fave for it is no easy task to melt this marble face into a smile more yet get laughter out of an organ pipe that has lost its bellows.

I object to your pointing your objections in my direction. I take deep offense.
But you have a point - say it plain I sez, or don\'t say it at all.
Please make this topic a regular revival and remind all the cryptographologists out there of the KISS principle.

Orchi, you got me with this one! π€£ I can just picture Fido doing his best to explain cryptic poetry while Popeye keeps interrupting with another heroic glug of spinach and declaring the whole thing perfectly simple. Poor Ol\'Tom is probably still trying to knit an iambic pentameter into his next sock. He was saying that pentameter meant that each foot had ten toes, each a meter long. π Good grief. We\'re doomed. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Orchi you make me laugh you are smarter than us all and understand more than you let on. My father always told me it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. Oh there I did it opened my mouth. My wife told me everyone loves a fool but few love the wise. The fool in the king\'s court was the wisest man and the only one the king would take counsel from. Good write my friend

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Orchi, I genuinely enjoyed this. It carries the tenderness and reassurance of Psalm 103 with the kind of steady meter that invites people to sing rather than simply read. That\'s one of the things I\'ve always appreciated about your hymn settings.
Now, if you\'ll excuse me, I hear Popeyeus Glug Maximus Solus and Oi Be are convening the First Council of Melcombe to determine whether the choir robes should henceforth include ceremonial yams. I fear history is about to be rewritten...again. π Always a pleasure, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

well written. Your poem centers on God\'s compassion and mercy toward humanity, emphasizing His understanding of human frailty and life\'s transience.

Haven\'t a heart anymore - left it at the hospital (the good doctor).
Local weather report: \' Cool, cloudy with showers\' Thought you would want to know...

Beautifully done, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬
Popeyeus Glug Maximus Solus heard \"Let God arise\" and immediately stood up from his spinach wine barrel, declaring himself ready for battle. Unfortunately, Oi Be confused, and well Ol\' Thomas is trying to convert his socks into green vapor masks. Of course, they were only rising for second breakfast. π·βοΈπ€£ Glug, glug!

I think I\'m going daft for it seems that I already read one of your hymns today but it must have been yesterday and it was your comment I read. Really Orchi I think I\'m getting too old. This one is a marvelous hymn of praise and it seems old testament and quite Jewish or should I say Israelite. Nicely done my friend.

Orchi, at this rate youβre going to have the entire Psalter stuffed into hymn meters and smuggled into the next edition of the hymnal. Some unsuspecting organist is going to announce, βLetβs sing number 847,β and half the congregation will have no idea theyβve wandered into Psalm 61 according to Saint Orchi of the Perpetual Meter. π€£ All jokes aside, beautiful work, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Prosperous Places
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Orchi, the river imagery is what stayed with me here. There is such abundance in itβ¦such generosity. Though I do worry that if Scooby catches wind of an eternal river of pleasures, heβll be cannonballing into it with a tennis ball before the rest of us arrive.
