I Wish You Love.
Good Morning Peeps,
.
Today everything is back to normal again.
I am now up early writing to you and Big H will be up soon to take his medication, have something to eat and then take some more tablets.
The beds are stripped and the rooms tidied.
.
Today is still a moody day, with low grey clouds and a definite chill in the air.
When I look out of the window now, I see all of the people scurrying along once more, heads down, dressed in their more wintry style.
I give up totally, it is May now and it feels like the depths of November.
We must definitely move to somewhere a bit warmer as soon as we can because I am getting a bit old for all of this!
.
First thing this morning I fed the birds as usual but I do not think that they were very impressed with the offerings they were given.
I think that their recent rich diet of tasty leftovers has spoiled their appetite for the simpler things of life and they now find bread to be pedestrian in the extreme.
.
I wonder what the birds living near the richest person in the world are given for their breakfast or did they not get to be incredibly wealthy by giving stuff away for nothing….even to hungry birds.
Or do they not have time to do that because they are too busy making their money grow.
Or do they practice their pheasant-bagging skills by taking pot shots at any local wildlife stupid enough to go near them.
Or are the birds discouraged from appearing regularly because their bird shit makes a mess around immaculate properties kept pristine by an army of diligent gardeners.
.
Stop it now Jaksie!!
.
OK, let’s talk about you instead.
How is everything going for yourself?
I wish you shelter from the storm, a cosy fire to keep you warm, and when night falls and bedtime calls….I wish you love!
.
My apologies to Charles L. Trenet for that, below I have put three versions of the song that I like.
One shows photographs of the beautiful and enigmatic Marlene Dietrich .
The other some atmospheric and lovely old photographic memories of the old days.
And Rod Stewart just sings the song… I Wish You Love.
And I’ll bet Pattie Smith could have sung it marvellously too.
Sorry, because I am just indulging myself’.
