An ancient cowboy tune (go figure?) came to mind, by Charley Pride, "Crystal Chandeliers"
Oh, the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your walls
The marble statuettes are standing stately in the hall
But will the timely crowd that has you laughing loud
Help you dry your tears
When the new wears off of your crystal chandeliers?

KL is listening to cowboy music, might as well get you started too!

I will soon have the entire WC community listening to C&W, mwaahaaahaaahaaaaa!

I liked this little short work, it was fun.

[Frieda P]

Ha you would....only song I like is Save a horse, ride a cowboy ;)

[NoelHC]

Prego, bella!

[Cryingkate]

Well if your both going to do the Crystal Chandeliers then just remember that.
"The snakes crawl at night" and then answer the question 'Does My ring hurt your finger?"
I guess I would have to answer that myself with No but the light socket does....

[Frieda P]

Nice to see you Kate, but I have no clue whatsoever what you're talking about. :)

[NoelHC]

I can see I am going to have to educate you, and improve your tastes in music Freida, those are references to more Charley Pride tunes, from w-a-a-a-a-y back!

[Frieda P]

There are actually a few tunes I enjoy, but not familiar with Charley...

[NoelHC]

Although he is still touring, Charley Pride was w-a-a-a-ay before your time, you are much too young to remember him.

[Frieda P]

Probably not 'way', I did hit that dreaded 40 mark...I just don't listen to that much country, I'm depressed enough ;) haha

[Cryingkate]

Charlies from the 70's and I pray that is not actually Ancient times. I'm old enough but not yet Ancient.:-)
Charles was and is one of my favorites. I remember playing his 8 tracks over and over and over.
Thanks Cowboy for reminding me of him and good to see ya too Freida. I'll probably be back stronger in the late fall. I'm reconditioning my life and surroundings and enjoying the upgrade immensely. Today while i weed around the house I will probably be singing all of Charlies tunes again. What a wonderful day this will be :-) Hope you all keep a song in your hearts too.

Love to you all !
Your Cryingkate :-)

[Matching Socks]

LOL. :)
Hilarious!

[Frieda P]

Jazz'd you enjoyed, you have a chandelier in that cabin per chance? ;)

[Matching Socks]

Nope, no chandelier... :)
I'll hang my dreams off the stars. xx

[Frieda P]

Even better. :) xo

[Ashira Macy]

Ha! You are adorable Frieda. You know, I have always wanted to swing from a chandelier. I might attribute that to Phantom of the Opera or something of the sort, but either way it looks like fun.

[Frieda P]

Awh thanks Ashira, you brought a smile to my cranky face this morning, my favorite play!

[Einstein Noodle]

[Frieda P]

[Frieda P]

By the way E that talented dancer is only 11 years old, her name is Maddie Ziegler, looks like me having a tantrum, if only I could move with such grace. :)

[Einstein Noodle]

[Sophy Freebirds]

Haww... i before reading the poem got the idea that your mind works such li'l wonders.. you won't believe i tried to swing in the roots ( aerial) of banyan tree to scare a friend of mine.
. And landed with a... ooopppsssiesz daisiessss :p... ha.. made me recall that.

[Frieda P]

Laughing here, you're a nutter hon! Would have loved to see that. ;)

[Sophy Freebirds]

:D... i would have dragged you with me too.. Love being weirdo :p

[Frieda P]

Good thing eh? haha

[DIVYA]

That's the way I wish to live my life. I know you do too. Loved the way you said it all in 10 words.

[Frieda P]

I concur Divya, thanks muchly.

[Onyia-Ali, Kingsley Chu..]

A short witty saying. Hiding behind words and meaning. We understood the dual works of Chanderlier. The poem swigs in the stream of painful pleasure, right?

[Frieda P]

I love your interpretation, wasn't anything so deep but food for thought here, just having fun with the music and graphic really...thanks!

[Onyia-Ali, Kingsley Chukwuebuka Benson]

O! Welcome, Frieda P.

[Lydia Shutter]

Wooohoooo you wild woman, you! Laughing here....only you would think to post such a poem. Lydi**

[Frieda P]

Laughing here, I won't tell anyone you're the one that taught me. ;)

[Lydia Shutter]

Hey, I will give lessons to those interested parties! LOL

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Well my DIY skills need improving! If you sat on my light fittings...tragedy!

[Frieda P]

Ha I guess handyman isn't your specialty eh?

[John Alexander McFadyen]

No I need more robust fixings for your intentions my Lady!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Anyway didn't see you as a swinger lol!

[Frieda P]

Apparently you're not a comedian either lol!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Hey have I told you my Gladiator joke?

[Frieda P]

No but I'm afraid to ask.............

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Hey you know me Roman the gloaming....................
