Me dad used to sing this song.  Then he'd do a soft shoe shuffle out the kitchen door to head for bed. We would be in hoots of laughter. when id ask him for money for something or other, he would say to me " Im only your Da, not one of the Rothschilds lol

Well sir i was away to me bed then read your reply.

I then went to hear your music. Elusive Spirit is  a beautiful piece.

How many times ? haunting and sweet. I enjoyed all your work. I'm glad your finding your light
at the end of a dark tunnel. I've said this many times Cteck, we are only as sick as the secrets we keep and hide.
Buried feelings and emotions just lay in wait until your most vulnerable again, Then they resurface to taunt you.
Act on it, deal with it, then you can move on.

I wish you great peace of body and mind.

Goodnight from the Emerald.

I agree daddycool.

We waste time, abuse it, lose it, drag it, save it,make it, create it, suspend it, wish it away,  call it, sleep it, clock it, slow it.
I could go on and on. Seldom do we really take notice of time, some day we will all  run out of time.

On that happy note lol mise [me ] is away to me shower then sleep some time away.

Happy dreams to all.

Stay cool Daddy.

Bear with me with this piece.   My son is moving on soon [ Boohoo]  Yeah right ! lol no washing lol ironing lol picking up:lol: Ah, but ill miss his company. especially the late night chats when he'd come home and plonk himself on my bed for a natter. On a positive side, i now have another place to go visit and fish.

Mother and Son.

No masquerade   from the start
My joy was real you stole my heart
I stroked your skin, you felt so new
So much to learn, try all things new.

Talkative and loving you always were
“Sunshine boy your teachers  said"
Frustrating,  your dyslexic mind
Calculus, I smiled,  it boggled mine

We got through, we loved to fish,
We liked to cook, make silly wishes
I watched you grow from boy to man
Your hormones raged, while I stayed calm.

She was gifted and pretty played her guitar
You loved her, I knew, right from the start
Your cries and your tears near tore me apart
So sudden, a car crash, stole your sweet heart

Your  life  felt broken  that dreadful day
New house, new life, all cast away
Dreams now shattered, life seemed to spin
Hot summers day, dark winter sets in.


Be of good faith son, your life will unfold.
Life changes direction, as will our souls
A mother son friendship its simplicity
Will abide, until all your sorrows break free.

Time orchestrated with sweet harmony
A new girl, a new life, prayers answered for me.
Another new house, your both   “joie de vivre
She is my petal, your darling, blessings on thee.

Our journeys was swift, the changes have come
Your birth a miracle, second to none
Once started from seed, your life had begun
For a mother and baby, my precious wee son.

Thank you for reading.
Ps . He [ my son ] functions very well in life with dyslexia.

Your so right with these words.

For what or why ?  It goes on and on and on. No amount of deaths in war ever stopped the next war happening.. Such a waste of life.

I always think of this song when i read words like yours sir.

Hi Cteck,

I love this piece of writing. Its so full of hope and sincerity.
Working myself with groups over many years for addictions and anxieties. For me, the bonus was always, seeing the light go on in someones eyes. You knew right there and then they were changed forever in there thinking.
Yeah, sometimes we have to get sick to find ourselves.
keep writing, keep walking the line, but know you make the choice.

Peace to you and thanks for sharing..

Old Doll.
