I’m having a spectacularly bad day, in a spectacularly bad year, part of a spectacularly bad three year run.
I feel as if the tiniest push and my whole internal flood defences will burst.

And another of Mary Oliver’s
Summers Day
“Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?
Tell me, what is it you plan to do
With your one wild and precious life?”

Lovely from @MattCarr55
“I mean, you must take living so seriously
that even at seventy, for example, you’ll plant olive trees—
and not for your children, either,
but because although you fear death you don’t believe it,
because living, I mean, weighs heavier.”

*PENGUIN*
Where did that *e* come from?
A bit like those lbs.
Nothing to do with me!

Damn Broke the thread of poems, music and goodwill that might be a little solace to others who might be feeling down.

This family with their lockdown music is great. They’d make anyone smile.
