James Morrison - You Give Me Something (Official Video)

 

 PSU # 57 Repetition

you sent me this 

a saab featured

at the end of the video clip

you love cars 

especially your saab cabriolet

 you give me something

 a lot of grief 

you give me something 

a lot of practical help

mainly under sufferance

 you give me something 

fresh orange juice in the morning

 you give me something 

you keep on trying 

knowing your condition

will never improve

i'm not blessed with the endless patience

of a saint 

neither am i mother theresa

it's not easy

yet i suppose overall

you give me more than something

you give me a lot 

a lot more than

anyone else has ever given me

message in a bottle?

(for any oldies who might remember gyrating to this about 40 years ago:)

 

just a reflection methinks

no message in the botle here

if there is

it escapes me

tsk

hand sewing

should have used the machine

now  had she been wearing

her  lethal defence stilltetos

this situation could have been avoided

magpie season 

has been very bad this year

the  wonder of snow

a truckie driving home for christmas

captures all the magic

of this special season

The King's Singers - Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen

 

the kings singers

es ist ein ros entsprungen

 always a good warm up for christmas

  the momentous event

 which changed the world

BRIAN'S CHRISTMAS MEDLEY

DECEMBER EKPHRASIS CHALLENGE....EARTHWEAL

 they were everywhere

when i was growing up in sydney

the magnificent giant moreton bay figs

memories of many happy hours spent playing

creating homes and rooms

for the little magical people

which children

of our time invented and created

without smart phones or social media

just imagination and an unsullied childhood

 Elena Salnikova

 

 

tragically

most of the figs have been destroyed now

sacrificed for redevelopment

we grieve 

we grieve

we should hang our heads in shame

i'm keeping my eye on this one

will shackle myself with the latest unbreakable chains

to this tree  if it is threatened in any way

NO WORRIES !

Earthweal OLW # 146

 you said

when you are around me

you are  always tripping out

in one way or another

 the sky is bluer 

the ocean is greener

the wine is sweeter

so i thought it would be ok

to tell you how very ill i was

i wasn't prepared for the

deafening silence stony and grey
