Thank you, Jim, for me to recharge my batteries when the world gets a bit pressurized, I find watching nature and not really thinking. about anything gets me back on track.     

Cheers Jan, it is wonderful to see you back on chordie. It is good to be pain free when playing the guitar. Now I don't have the dexterity I use to have in my fingers I have been working on different ways of playing the guitar. I agree walking by the sea or in the forest is good soul food. On clear nights checking out the sky always fills me with awe.

Good one EB you hit the nail on the head with this one.     

Jim, your lyrics tell it good and many will feel they are about their own relationship breakdown. The sleepiness  and that feeling bout half past dead.

Richard it is good to have you put another song on here from you. You cover a wide range of genres it's good to see that you don't limit yourself to one style. .     

Grah, that is a good song. It takes me back to the days here in NZ when many young Kiwis rode British bikes.
If you owned a Norton Commando here back then you had a much sort after bike due to them costing a bit more than other bikes. Milk-bar cowboys or bodgies who owned motorbikes was the name many of the young rebellious ones were known as here.

Cheers Jan,  I love your poem on words. Many of the new ways people use words to describe things sometimes gets me confused such as when someone says that's real sick meaning it is real good.     Since I'm on about words here is a rundown on some Kiwi slang attached   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7mwczj4s20&t=312s

Cheers Jan and Jim I see it often people out and about concentrating on their phones and the people around then just an outside noise. I learnt a new word yesterday nomophobia  the fear of being without your phone. The art of healthy social interaction is being destroyed for many by their addiction to their smartphones.     

Good to see you getting out a lot and playing Grah.     

Cheers Piri, apparently a lot of modern sayings come from Shakespear. I was at a Catholic funeral and I remember the Priest saying a lazy way to deliver a good sermon is to quote the bible and something that Malcom Mugrage said or wrote about Christianity. Many of the young ones at the funeral wouldn't have known who Malcom was but people like me knew of him because he use to be interviewed a lot on TV here. One thing I like about the internet is when reading history books in the old days I would have to refer to a dictionary to find out what some words meant but now I can just look them up on the internet.

Thank you, Richard, for taking the time to have a listen and give me some feedback. I hope some more people have a go at this month's FSOTM.     

Thank you Richard your doing a real good job here. The four words that came up when I did the word generator this time are.

legend
Coincidence
Ritual
Broken     

Jim I like the imagery of the lonesome pines and the train in the valley rolling down the track and the love that's lost and slipped through a crack. Clever lyrics.
