Lovely poem Ruth. trouble the dreams that i would rather forget hang around and those that I want to remember don't.

This poem manages to convey so well this tale of a certain part of life in a certain time full of colour.

This sounds like the lyrics to an old jazz standard. Perhaps from the swing era.

Oo-er, MC. Fittingly worrying. I take a perverse pleasure that those who seem most guilty of adopting a casual attitude to protecting themselves and others will be paying off Rishi Sunak’s loan from the future long after you and I are no more.

I loved this!!!
I imagined " I walk along the cliff:
Sheer drop upon the windward side," as like, the colon being the end of the line and then a sheer drop!
The ending was beautiful, too. ?

This is delightfully puzzling. Is it dark or light. Perhaps both. Chiaroscuro on a moving Christmas card.

Perhaps Saturnalia would be a good rebranding name for some public-private entity (Post Office, London Assembly cafeteria?) It would cheer everyone up.
Good poem, John. I do remember Black Eye Friday, though not personally.

In truth, Trevor and Julie, they were never like that when I was working. It doesn’t have the same Saturnalian attraction these days when Our Gert and I pop out to the Garden Centre for the OAP’s Christmas treat.

Thanks you for liking this Tony, Kevin Stephen and Stephen.
That was quite disconcerting and spectacular Graham. The nearest I got to that was learning to swim at 28 and then diving from a top board. Luckily there was water in the pool, or rather pool in the water. I'm glad you described the poem in that way!

This poem made me feel a mixture of emotions, sort of like thinking and drinking does. I love the way you combine poetry, music, visual, and your voice to create next level art. Very unique. Bravo! ?

Where there are squirrels
there are nuts & seeds,
Squirrels drive you nuts
most would agree,
They invade your attic
your property
soon squirreled away
they never leave!

Oh it would have been a past life when you were a soldier. A symbolic dream. Sounds like a nightmare wanting your eyes. Listen when you meditate imagine yourself in a cave, filled with beautiful crystals, running water, allow your ancestors to visit you. In your dreams you are free.

It's been a painful lesson I know but gradually people may have come to realise that you don't get to decide the other party's negotiating position.

To borrow a biblical term often used by the doom and gloom-ers in
other contexts: Behold, the end is nigh. Or is it the end of a new
beginning? High-wire Boris is having to tread very carefully but it's
for sure that the outcome will not please all. It's a fascinating
combination to watch at present - the Brexit finale and the equally
absorbing US election, with its accumulating evidence of naughty-goings on at the polls that only seem to get reported online rather than via the mainstream media who seem wilfully ignorant of what
the word "evidence" actually means. The curtain rises on the closing
scenes...take your seats!!

Original item by d.knape
There is a price being paid by those who have put their "freedom"
and passing convenience above the sense of preservation - self and
others, now highlighted in places like London. What has happened
to the old British tradition of "grin and bear it" for everyone's sake?
The population "as is" appears to be fragmented in a host of ways -
hardly conducive to optimism for long-term public health as nature
takes its tireless toll. "Look after number one" has never had more
relevance than now.

I'm thinking there is a price to be paid, and until the price has been extracted in full we will continue to have the status of 'debtor'.
Happy Christmas Mark, and all.
