Hi iread another post and i think it is Jackie who lives quite close, and also MickYork i thing has Wiz's phone number, perhaps they can give us an update?

[Mickyork]

Hi all. I phoned George earlier. He's not getting any better. I spoke to Kath as he couldn't talk. She said he's a little worse & he's on oxygen   
The doctor will be seeing him again Monday. I am going to go see him as soon as I can. If I hear anything else I will let you all know.

Thanks for that, tell him we are all thinking about him

[doganjo]

Thanks, Mick.  He's a grand old chap, we all miss his witty words and stories.

I love the simple words that John Clare uses to describe the things around us, his words remind me of the style Wizard uses so I looked out a simple poem, in my mind he talks of the love of nature, this is for Wizard
and of course his wife who may be in need of some support too.

A World For Love

    Oh, the world is all too rude for thee, with much ado and care;
Oh, this world is but a rude world, and hurts a thing so fair;
Was there a nook in which the world had never been to sear,
That place would prove a paradise when thou and Love were near.

And there to pluck the blackberry, and there to reach the sloe,
How joyously and happily would Love thy partner go;
Then rest when weary on a bank, where not a grassy blade
Had eer been bent by Trouble's feet, and Love thy pillow made.

For Summer would be ever green, though sloes were in their prime,
And Winter smile his frowns to Spring, in beauty's happy clime;
And months would come, and months would go, and all in sunny mood,
And everything inspired by thee grow beautifully good.

And there to make a cot unknown to any care and pain,
And there to shut the door alone on singing wind and rain--
Far, far away from all the world, more rude than rain or wind,
Oh, who could wish a sweeter home, or better place to find?

Than thus to love and live with thee, thou beautiful delight!
Than thus to live and love with thee the summer day and night!
The Earth itself, where thou hadst rest, would surely smile to see
Herself grow Eden once again, possest of Love and thee

John Clare
