Sounds like a soul mate, soulmates are conformable like a pair of comfy slippers but rarely evoke passion like a pair of leopard print stilletos!! Excuse the metaphor x

Just been in the local shop I was the only one with a face mask on. We are not allowed in cafes in neighbouring towns here yet they were all queuing up without facemasks in the local shop near me buying booze. All youngsters. Silly sods x

Every time I visit the city of Leeds I see lots of homeless people, and most of them are polite and gracious. I give money to one person each visit. I can't help them all, but I try to do my bit. I hope the money goes on food, but the choice is theirs. Once that money is in their possession it is theirs to do with as they see fit. Dark days for the homeless just now.

Get the paint brush out instead of computer graphics it's more therapeutic...... I covered myself in paint once and pressed myself against a canvas to leave an imprint I'm sure you could too, only make sure it's not masonry paint but washable body paint

Thanks Keith. I sometimes think of words I want to write just before I sleep so I always keep a note book by my bed to write them down assuming I haven't fallen asleep before hand.
Thanks again

When my other sister returned from hospital care I sent her my

Just a thought to keep your spirits up in the fight against the invader!

Thanks for the comments MC and Paul.
My crime was committed on the last night of holiday. So easy to forget the rules after a few glasses of wine and whilst saying farewell until next year. Best to stay home where guilt free hugs are allowed.

At least when I am able to get out there to perform once again I will have some new poems as part of my repertoire...

They are father and daughter. Much love and mutual respect. It’s easy to attach a video. Just click on Share and copy the link, then paste the link with your poem. I also love the soundtrack to A Star is Born. When it first came out I listened to Shallow at least a dozen times a day! I didn’t even know Bradley Cooper could sing! https://youtu.be/bo_efYhYU2A

I've just 'istened to this track, I don't always get the time to listen to the songs you post, they seem to have a regard and love for one another thses singers, I'll admit I've never heard of either of them xx I must learn how to attach a track. I'm still a massive fan of the soundtrack to a star is born starring Bradley Cooper and lady gaga although I haven't listened to it I'm going to now even though its, 2.30am, thank you for sharing x

This line in particular struck me:

"Today I want you, tomorrow I hate you because I can't have you, next week I'll die if I never get to see you."

Am sure a lot of people can relate to this piece. Thank you for sharing.
