You need to bin this Vanessa. Not the poem, that is very good. I mean the thought of the trash man. You could recycle him into…………. (add name as appropriate).

  hahaha I did ponder the betrayal of my own linguistic upbringing, in just using the word “trash” instead of “bin” or “rubbish”, apart from another conversation in my mind about using a different word/phrase/concept. But this was my initial melodramatic thought, when I actually heard the rubbish truck coming down the street…and I decided to keep the melodrama. 🙂

I understand trash very well! And my punishment is…. the link cannot be viewed in Canada! Boo…. I so love the music from the Piano. And the film was one of my favourite ever.

This poem reminded me of the poor Trash Can Man from The Stand.
SNTC? you took this featured picture? It’s sublime, the greenery!!
This piano piece; I enjoyed it–it was raining while I was listening to it. Eee.

  I have never read it. haha I can assure you I did not have that in mind when I wrote this 🙂
  And thank you so much for the lovely comment on the photo. Yes, I took it. Most of the photos on my blog are mine. This was taken in the French Alps in the spring about 13 years ago. I remember it was a perfectly gorgeous day.
  I’m glad you liked the music too 🙂 Ah, rain! Perfect!
