SIX ~ My Birth Number
love HEXAGONS ~ Benzene Rings
also Honeycombs
Beware Him ~ whose number is
SIX SIX SIX ~ The Real Devil
SEVEN ~ Perfection
SEVEN Stars ~ SEVEN Graces
Grow from Child to Boy !
When I became SEVEN ~ I
entered a SEVENTH Heaven.
EIGHT ~ Chinese Good Luck
"One over the EIGHT ~ Bad Luck"
Don't play the EIGHT Ball !
EIGHT white notes ~ makes an OCTAVE
Melody and Harmony
NINE FRUIT of the SPIRIT !
Love ~ Joy ~ Peace ~ Patience ~ Kindness
Goodness ~ Faithfulness
Gentleness and Self Control
Keep in Step with the SPIRIT !
TEN ~ Number of LAW
TEN Commandments ~ TEN Scout Laws
TEN Downing Street !
Started Big School ~ when I was
TEN ~ Rules & Regulations !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN
NOTES ~ BENZENE is C6H6 and KEKULE proposed
it was a perfect HEXAGON of six Carbon atoms each
with a Hydrogen attached. Honeycombs HEXAGONAL
One over the EIGHT ? The British Workman could
drink eight pints of warm beer and still cycle home
but the NINTH would make him fall off ~ try it !
The NINE FRUIT of the SPIRIT give us the character
to live a life honouring to GOD ~ It was a miracle
that they fitted the FORMAT (5 7 5 7 7) in order !
Primary Schools in the UK (5 to 10) are Heaven but
Secondary School ~ can be Hell ~ so many Rules
and Regulations and (God Forbid !) HOMEWORK !

Ah - that wonderful number nine did it for me Brian - - love to contemplate those fruits of the spirit - a fine end to your double bill of numbers my friend.
Thanks FAY I knew you would enjoy that Tanka ! The amazing thing is I took them straight out of the NIV (Galatians 5 vs 22 ~ 25) and they fitted perfectly ! Divine inspiration or what ? Thanks for you comments they are always encouraging ~ Yours as ever BRIAN
Good job it stops at ten, I have run out of fingers and thumbs.
Thanks ANDY ~ there are only TEN Green Bottles ~ which sets a limit for me in most things TEN IS ENOUGH ! I can't have a Dog or Cat ~ Rules of the owners of my Flat ! So in my tropical Fish Tank I always have exactly TEN FISH ! Yours BRIAN

Yes HONEY ! 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 40 ! I'm sure I'll be ready for it when it comes ! For MEN it is a chance to have a Big Party while most of their Friends re still able to BOOGIE ! Most of my Lady friends are in their 30's and dreading it ! Vive la difference ! Thanks for your comment it stirred my imagination ! 40 Hugs ~ BRIAN
Another great example of Tanka! You never cease to amaze me with your positivity and educational bits you insert into your writes. Love it! Hugs--Christina
Thanks CHRISTINA (love the smooth sound of your full name !) ~ As a SCIENTIST every number has significance and also psychologically ! I love the thoughts that my MUSE supplied as I wrote it and I was astounded that The Nine Fruits of the Spirit fitted into the TANKA without any tweeking ~ a Miracle ! I write for lovely people like you who really appreciate Poetry ~ Hugs ~ BRIAN
I appreciate that wonderful reply!
The number 9 is for me. Thanks for this beauty Brian.
THANKS MALU ~ I love you because you are a very Spiritual Lady so i wrote NINE for ladies like you ! It is Fruit of the Spirit so those who reach into the Spiritual Dimension get all NINE of these beautiful traits in their Personality. Thanks for your response ~ Hugs in the Spirit ~ BRIAN
