 forecast bed sighed neck head  part laid dashing give morning  warmth always

she sighed
he was always so dashing
the  irresistible warmth of his neck
his head resting against hers
luring her to bed

part of her wanted to get laid
but that familiar little forecast bell
tinkling
will you still love me you in the morning
gave her second thoughts

time around
oh dear
and it's happening
 again
fly me to the moon
and let me play among

 SEADNA....CELTIC VERSE

spring will sing her  sweet song so soon
wretched winter's  been too cold
aching bones bundled fast in furs
spring's salvation for the old

let autumn loose in the far north
they've had a sizzling summer
a new experience for them
let's hope autumn's a stunner

• Seadna: A four-line stanza (quatrain) where lines one and three have eight syllables and lines two and four have seven syllables, tied together with complex internal alliteration and end-rhymes.

no angry thoughts
none
just a little love
three things
 is all she asks
her final dream
a haven of peace
for  once
if only
why not

bones 
start to creak a little
picking up things from off the floor
seems to take a long time

picking herself up
is even harder

 

bending over is not so easy either
she uses a bath chair
to wash her feet in the shower
it is strange knowing
she is the same age as old people
yet another reality
she must come to terms with

Sir Anthony Hopkins composed the romantic piece "And the Waltz Goes On" in 1964. Too humble and insecure to share his early musical talent with the public, he kept it hidden for nearly 50 years. In 2011, his wife secretly sent the score to Dutch violinist André Rieu, who fell in love with the tune and performed it live with his orchestra.

truly great artist
humility shines through his
vast veritable talent
