I get transported so easily
Transported from my normality
Into a world of beauty
A world of wonder
A world of surrealism
All it takes is a note that I hear
Or the stroke of paint on canvas
And I can be in another world
A world of wonder and beauty
That is what my life can do
When I listen to music
Or look at art
I get transported into another world
Where life is sublime.

A fine write Gold. But aww, why people get transported too, when they hear me sing? They catch the first bus home! heehee.
Thanks Orchi.
Your singing can't be that bad, I can't hear you and I am only 90 miles away.
Great stuff, it's all in the mind!
It sure is, the mind is a powerful thing in our lives.
Thanks UNCLE ANDY : Love the Paintings especially STARRY STARRY NIGHT and CHOPIN. For ME he always transports to another Dimension ! So cool : so smooth : so transportational ! Sometimes when I play piano (late at night) to unwind I compose spontaneously and shed all the angst of my Day and play effortlessly in Heavenly Places. RUTH suggests I should record it and transpose it into musical notation for publication ! Who knows I might make CLASSIC FM ! God has created MAN with the ability to creat and enjoy the cathartic nature of the Arts ! Thanks for sharing !
Bleasssing & Peace & Love to YOU & JOYCE
Your Friend in NZ : ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Thank you Angela, It would be good to hear some of your music.
Vincent's work can take me places with little doubt.
Music is marvelous in the many ways it can motivate us and enhance a mood.
We should all arrange a 'meet' and get Orchi to lead a choir. We shant have the conventional bass, tenor, soprano etc but rather great dane, spaniel and chihuahua.
I would suggest we create an oral rendition of golliwogs cakewalk by Claude Debussy (I'm a debussy orchestral fan)
Thank you d a, art and music can certainly take us to some wondrous places.
To me art has become like music, so many different styles that I like but the ones that really pull at me are the Pre-Raphaelites, especially William Holman Hunt. There is so much to see in his work, there is a painting in the Ashmolean museum called "A Converted British Family Sheltering a Christian Priest from the Persecution of the Druids" I have spent hours in front of that painting yet every time I go back to it I see things in it that I had not see before.
An MPS Choir eh? Sounds like a good idea. The Golliwogs cakewalk would be fun but it might be more likely if we put words to this:
