Aww... you're the only one who noticed when I disappeared.
I am not having a final sleep at WOL, just napping.
I've got quite a lot of poetry to catch up on after the shut-eye.

'Eye of the Beholder' rang very true and was perfectly constructed.

Thanks for reading "eye of the beholder"

Hi Sanja
I've been looking through your blog entries. I like your approach to poetry. It's hard to say exactly why but I wouldn't have continued with it if I didn't appreciate it, and I certainly wouldn't be writing this.
I think I like your words being so sparse, and of course the subject matter, and then leaving it as something that hardly quite happened but feelings are aroused and thoughts are fuelled.
I look forward to reading more.

Think I understand what you're getting at when referring to the support for Marcus Rashford when people really came together, but otherwise the behaviour of The Brits was appalling. Booing the Italian national anthem, gatecrashing the match, which there is no excuse for now, with all the mega screens available, beating up Italian supporters afterwards outside the stadium,and finally leaving the London Streets as if there had been a war. Not to mention the refusal to accept the medals for second place. I was really ashamed.

Thanks for the further comments on my profile page.
One point - the book cover you refer to ("Poetry to Please") is,
in fact, a CD cover and uses a photograph taken by me in the
delightful riverside town of Dartmouth in South Devon, UK.
Some of the tracks from the CD can be heard in the audio section
of my profile.
By the way, an Aussie local "country music" radio station in
Victoria has played some of my songs. Hats off to Trudy Burke
in St. Albans!!

Thanks for stopping by my profile Tony. I'm glad you enjoyed 'Tinder Tango'!
Can you tell me more about the inspiration behind 'Linen'? I love your words—somewhat cryptic and still expressive.
Your doggy is gorgeous. Rescue dog I hear? Aren't you a blessing.
Have a wonderful day.
Best wishes,
Rasa

A Conservatorship is a legal construct designed for people who
are incapable of handling their own affairs.
The court appoints someone else to handle them for the person
incapacitated. Unfortunately, this process is often abused
and the person loses all their civil rights.
(see Brittany Spears).
Her story has been all over the news here lately.

Thank you Keith for your comments on "Yard Work".
Nowadays, people shun physical work as if it's bad.
All they want to do is zoom calls. ha.
Physical work is equal to mental work.
It is a partner in our overall well-being.
