Hey Tom.
Thanks for your comment on my page. I was quite surprised about our similarities. It is very unusual for me to meet someone who is similar to me, in fact I met one person in 26 years from whom I thought he looks at the world like I do.
The last months, my soul has been very restless and it's hard for me to find peace inside. Even though I have the time, I don't read many of the poems on WOL cause I lack the attention they deserve.

Aloha?

Lasse

Ya can keep yer 3/6, Paul. But swop the donuts for jam and cream scones and we might have a deal.
Fantasy, MC! Wot fantasy!!!??? And it’s a poem alright. Note the rhyme of “me” in the 2nd para with “he” in the 8th. Anyroadup, it’s wrote and wrote out loud, so it clearly has its place on this site’s pantheons of poetic literature.

I saw them win the league in 1961, Graham, and it irreparably damaged me then. I couldn’t stand it again!
Not just the spoken baritones, Paul, but also the perfect face for radio.

Where's watching THFC win the Premiership on the list then JC. If we can be 2nd in the league playing shite, think what could happen if we buck up a bit!
On the other matters, avoid Macshit at all costs, forget The Simpsons, get Alf Garnett on catchup instead and I hate to disappoint you but there is no such thing as a nice Man U supporter (but you knew that anyway) ?

Thank you all, I've been writing a series of, "Sunday morning thoughts," as it seemed to be a natural point in the week to sit down and, "Take a breath." This was one of those.
So glad you liked it. ❤❤

Both of us being spiritualists means we are heart-open to all religions and all aspects of nature ( our seven principals )
so in that respect, this poem appealed to us both beautifully.

First off, thanks for reading and liking John, Tony, Brian, Paul , Shifa, Stephen G, Julie, and Stephen A.

Thanks Keith for your personal take, involving a central element of the poem and expressing that in your own way.

A poetic take as a comment, always bringing fresh views Mark, thanks.

Ah Paul ! Yes, the joy of speed and rhyme , wind it up and watch it go.

There's at least another poem in your mind with that comment, I reckon. When trying to be a little political I usually dowse it with philosophy, so well spotted.
