Simple Understanding.

Goldfinch60



There was a time

When there was an understanding,

A simple understanding

That if we sang at dawn

And we sang at dusk

We could heal the world,

Heal the world through joy.

We may not understand it,

But the birds still do.

          Ahh, it must mean the birds singing then. And some humans as well.
          But certainly not me. I sing at dawn and folk have a terrible start to their day. I sing at dusk and folk have nightmares, knowing I'm gonna sing again the next dawn! heehee.
          How's Hastings prep?

          • Goldfinch60

            Thanks Orchi.

            All is going well, I am on my way down to The Battle pub.

              Such a mystical but at the same time real message. I agree music is a special medicine.

              • Goldfinch60

                So true soren, music is a special medicine.

                I knew there was some good in looking to the birds and their song.

                • Goldfinch60

                  Very true CB.

                  Expertly penned my friend. And I loved the song video, marvelous voice.

                  • Goldfinch60

                    Thank you AP, yes she has a wonderful voice..

                    A lovely poetic thought here Andy.

                    It acts as a reminder of the wholesomeness that still remains.

                    If only such a "healing culture" can replace such a "cancel culture" eh?

                    Bravo and I hope that all is well.

                    • Goldfinch60

                      Thank you Ben.

                      Yes 'if only.....?"

                    • BlessedbyGod

                      Such a beautiful sound Andy, a singing bird is like the song of angels, so peaceful and innocent!

                      Beautiful piece Andy!

                      • Goldfinch60

                        Thank you Melissa, yes singing birds are angels.

                        Thankfully we have the birds to remind us, if we listen. Beautiful dear friend.

                        • Goldfinch60

                          We certainly do have the birds Bella and they sound so beautiful.#
                          Thank you.

                            Excellent. We are so blessed by the symphonies of the birds.

                            • Goldfinch60

                              We certainly are Thomas, thank you.
