Hi Paul,

Hi Paul,

I think these lines sum up the poem for me:-

Posted on Tue, 18 Jan 2022

Hey! Turlough, this was such a lot of fun to read. I could just imagine the scene. It's funny how children can be influenced and imagine. I recall when I was about eight a house where an old woman lived alone, all the kids were so cruel and said...

You have so many wise words

Posted on Fri, 14 Jan 2022

You have so many wise words coming from Hades, that I'm inclined to agree with even though life is so important. Mark was so brave giving himself over to the ferryman, Oren is very lucky to have such good friends.

Posted on Wed, 12 Jan 2022

Hi Jean, That saying; 'you can't please all of the people, all of the time,' came to mind as I read. I think Maria's idea of researching the hymns of Cardinal Nerman, and teaching the ones they don't know, was a great idea...music always delivers...
