(re Sorry bone) Thanks Martin, High Praise; I blush?
The words were poured out and while upon reflection I thought it a tad confusing, I then recalled that that is the case with most of my verse.
The photo' was taken by myself. It is of the interior of Liverpool's Tate Gallery. The silhouette is of an unknown (to me ) woman.

Cheers

Hi M.C. I just clicked on to 'Where Do You Go' Can I ask did you do the instrumentals for that track? I really enjoyed the lyrics and the instrumentals. Thank you. I have two sons who are musicians and play guitar.
I really enjoyed listening it was very soothing...?

Thanks for the comments on 'Blood Brothers In Arms' Jennifer. My dad was in Burma in the 2nd WW and fought alongside the Gurkas - he always said they were the most loyal, hard-working and ferocious fighters that you could wish for. He had a saying 'Good Old Johnny Gurka', I still remember that fondly
Glad you liked the poem

Thanks for your insightful comments on 'Blood Brothers In Arms' John - glad you liked it. I'm pleased about your churches stance on symbolism - I think too many people get wound up about symbols when it is the act of remembering human suffering that is the crucial point - and by that I mean ALL human suffering of any race, creed or culture
cheers mate

Hello Jennifer - I was interested in your comment about
Brexit elsewhere.
Peace in Europe? Don't forget the violence and death in
Serbia etc - sorted out by NATO, the real preservers of
peace in Europe....whilst the EU likes to pose as such.
I voted to leave because over a long lifetime I was aware
early on that a policy of deceit and want of truth was
being pursued after the original Common Market vote,
aided/abetted by those sent to our own Parliament acting
ultra vires and keeping the actual intentions and progress
(check> Common Market/European Economic Community/
European Community/European Union (NOTE the LAST
political identity) from the British people OR their chance
to vote on what had been/was being done in their name.
The understanding of what was done came only when
the loss of border controls offered the reality of just how
much had been handed to foreign influence and control,
with our own government facing defeat after defeat by
a political entity that had become a federal creation of
recent dictatorships and tyrannies busy putting their own
interests first (and no surprise there), while the more
incompetent and fragile economies saw us as a "milch
cow" for very welcome funds, obtained above and below board!
I recall driving around a pre-EU Europe and faced no
difficulties or impediment. Indeed, the enjoyment was
negotiating borders and complying with the variety of
customs and demands met by this traveller. It was an
ADVENTURE, and returning to this self-governing
offshore island nation was its own reward!
Sincerely,
MC

Hi Jon, thank you for your lovely comment, on The Death of Love..for me it is about expressing emotion but keeping it real without being overly sentimental..but still trying to reveal the true depth of feeling and the fragility of the human condition. I don't know if that makes any sense..Taylor x

Yes, there are different
degrees of Homelessness.
Some forced into it.
Some choosing it.
For some, Home is a shopping cart.
For others, it's a page and a pen.

SO MUCH YOU

You look so happy in this photo
that smile is so much YOU,
We wonder what just happened
that you could be so moved,
Could it be you inherited money
or did the divorce go through?
Whatever the reason, keep smiling
that smile is so much YOU.


wink.

Hello DK! Love your profile!!! Feel like that myself. About your query - they do eat sardines, but being a pastoral people love mutton!!!!!!!
Also loved Breaking the chain. mixed up the torturers a bit though! Gestapo OK, but waterboarding I think is US technology, and as for tarring and feathering!!!!!! Loved it.

You will be glad to hear I am not competing for POTW at the moment, (Why they awarded it to me stll astonishes me) as I have broken my wrist!!!!!

Keep up the go0d work! Surprised Wolfgar Meire didn't get at you for the anachronisms!!!! Jennifer
