Most important Learning for me:
My plans to purchase an ADV bike (like the #MotoGuzzi #V85TT) have been put on hold. All these bikes feel too big and clumsy. I will wait until #MotoGuzzi builds a #Scrambler like the #Stornello again (alternatively: Convert a V7 to a Scrambler)
Brevity is the keyword today:
Pop!
A button falls, it vanishes without trace,
Flabbergasted, I search with a puzzled face.
The cloth still holds the memory of its place.

Texas is famous around the world today;
We all hear about their losses when they play.
Remember the Alamo? Well, if you say.

Freda's Grave On Cannock Chase the heather sways in sorrow, Freda lies still, no dawn for her tomorrow, Yet love endures, and memory we borrow. She marched with them through mud and mortar fire, Mascot of hope, her trust did not expire, Her loyal heart would lift their spirits higher. Now horses, pigeons, donkeys, and dogs are named, Each sacrifice in our silence is proclaimed, Their courage shines through as history is framed.
Freda's Grave. A stone memorial for a dog, who served in WW1, surrounded by flowers.
I had to write about my favourite #Memorial for this week's #PromptCombo from @rfsmith.bsky.social.
And @daveashleypoet.bsky.social is to thank for the for #stornello form.

when I was in hospital I watched a chap have his loved ones do this whilst he was still having problems (out of fear I guess). The chap pulled through but really mostly he just needed support. I played chess with him.
the cats desire only treats, for they insist
they should get all the tasty foods that exist
they ply at us, meow a lot, but we resist.

the ancient troubles rollicking these here parts
all evade the grasp of thinkers with their smarts
let's go, or arm ourselves, before real war starts

Oh—! #helical zootation how I miss thee
how you may serenade me into my sleep
with devil's lettuce, my stolen soul you'd keep
Comeuppance from urine samples doth giveth
states scarlet penalize thy joy, o what death
Alas—! Our reunion must wait much longeth
