TeriL always knows how to comment well and with encouragement. More should follow suit.

I have moved over to another forum. Find it to be much more inter-active and satisfying. https://allpoetry.com/Doug_Blair

Now that is a spectacular poem. Any comments from out there? Any?

A real celebration and forward event in 1973. Swans officiating and slowly nodding assent.

I remember another one that addressed bureaucracy in Ants. Brilliant irony. On our honeymoon 1974, we were in Vermont. Morgan horses. Colourful autumn. Friendly people. The old haunts of Robert Frost. And us…Doug Blair more »

Aw nuts, a trip to the Vet and his firm grasp and final needle. We had a doxy, much beloved. Went the same way. Good phases of story Robin…Doug Blair

Winking from the curb, this friendlyChristmas tree. Captures the special homestyle blessings of Noel, however quaint. Thanks for this excellent piece Robin.

Excellent pathos and provocation John. And I love the Scots and most things about the. I have visited twice. Look in Google images for the nature paintings of Landseer…good stuff John. Doug Blair…yep very good. more »

oops I was referring to lovingempath…Someone named Robin?

lets stop there on a note of mutual respect. Now it seems another is ragging on my so called Christian slant. Can’t get ahead on this strain. Stopping here. Sheesh. Doug. Sayonara lovingmepath. Nighty night. more »

Treatments sometimes are just plain robbery of self and wit and energy and hope. In the field of mental health. Tools of assessment are still inadequate. Like a chimpanzee using a twig as a prod for tasty termites in their hole. Chin up Brother. Mental illness has come to my family as well. Day at a time..Doug Blair. more »

Glad that you delight in your Monarchy. Charles is into it ably and sensitively. Watched all of the Coronation. Pomp and music done so well by you Brits

Your analysis studies one’s self searching as if the Initiator of a marked transformation. No, God chooses, woos, draws, fascinates, convicts of sin. The process by His initiation results in repentance unto life. Acts chapter 11. Verses 17 and 18. Sounds as if I am on the Reformist side, doesn’t. Nope I follow the Holiness side as did John Wesley, horse riding Evangelist. Consult the very last verses of James chapter five. There is a terrible point at which one is capable of rebelling his salvation away. Watch out. Pray often. Recognize your tenuous ride. Trust in the Blood and the indwelling Spirit. more »

As if to say God revokes promises. Makes mistakes and has to resort to a Plan B or Plan C. Balderdash. Jews are not being replaced in God’s partiality with a strange Race. At the end of Galations we read that the true Israel of God encompasses Jew and Gentile, bond and free. The process has been a brilliant refining. Not a replacing…Doug Blair. more »
