The Mountain Code!

By Rhiannonw on Thu, 16 Mar 2023

This was insipired by memories of my father’s lusty singing of the humourous 'National Anthem of the Ancient Britons' or the 'Woad Ode' (to tune of Men of Harlech) I didn’t know it by that title but just by some of the words and tune (see links) I used to enjoy the fun, rhythm and fun rhymes. What I’ve written comes from thinking about it but is nothing like it.

Posted on Mon, 11 Oct 2021

I liked the photo, Jenny. Is it yours? The light gleaming on the moss adds to the loveliness of those moss-enveloped secret and undisturbed places. It reminded me of walks in such places with soft swathers of beautirul mosses, and those old...

You have so much maple over

Posted on Fri, 08 Oct 2021

You have so much maple over there I think! Also I think you are a bit ahead of us in the autumn coldness and colouring. We do have a little bush called Stag's Horn in the garden that is in beautiful colours of red, orange and yellow, jut outside...

Posted on Thu, 07 Oct 2021

I sometimes wonder if those praising some pieces really understand them (I am aware of being very slow to understand even Shakespear myself, without a teacher leading my thoughts), or merely like some parts, and like the sound flow of the words...

A touching memory, Graham,

Posted on Thu, 07 Oct 2021

A touching memory, Graham, especially as your 'masquerade' could have been sore for the listener in his hard circumstances, and provoked feelings of jealousy, but in fact, his gentle interest in your 'success' and happiness, cheered you! Rhiannon

This is beautiful, Di! and the simple unobtrusive rhythm and rhyme making a simple flow of the words! Rhiannon

Glimpses we have of people

Posted on Wed, 06 Oct 2021

Glimpses we have of people and situations in the past can be quite tantalizing in feeling we know only the surface of events and would love to be able to time-travel to see more, and ask questions and try to understand the why of people's...

'Ships passing in the night'

Posted on Tue, 05 Oct 2021

'Ships passing in the night' … I read this before, and like Jean, was taken with the description of the setting, but thought to have another look when some had commented!

How little we do see through the windows of the eyes in those...

Lovely you had those

Posted on Mon, 04 Oct 2021

Lovely you had those experiences, Richard, to remember and be able to recall and describe in such detail to delight others. And, still the calls of friendship to give though you can't move far now. Rhiannon

Posted on Wed, 29 Sep 2021

It all seems to be very confused!

An era when some travelled a lot, but most didn't travel at all?

The children do seem to have been looked after with care and love, and had experienced real love from their parents at the early age...
