Remember, Remember
English Folk Verse (c.1870) - The Fifth of November Remember, remember! The fifth of November, The Gunpowder treason and plot; I know of no reason Why the Gunpowder treason Should ever be forgot! That's the only portion of this poem I have known up until now, however this year I came across the rest which I have to say I am not in complete agreeance with. Guy Fawkes and his companions Did the scheme contrive, To blow the King and Parliament All up alive. Threescore barrels, laid below, To prove old England's overthrow. But, by God's providence, him they catch, With a dark lantern, lighting a match! A stick and a stake...
Nice pic happy new year
ReplyDeleteLovely photo for SWF. Wow I love the crescent shape of the moon. Happy New Year to you.
ReplyDeleteHey Dancin' nice shot of the moon! I love the image under the title "Dream Not Of Today" and I love Jethro Tull!

This is very nice moon!

Hello All and Happy New Year! Thank you for your lovely comments.
ReplyDeleteI was really pleased how this picture came out. The moon was very clear and bright last night.
Larry the image under Dream not of Today I took at Heligan Gardens in Cornwall. She is awesome and huge. If you ever visit the UK I would recommend a trip to Heligan and of course while you are there the Eden project!
So favourite Tull album/ decade? Actually that's a hard question, I have some favourites but basically just love it all!
Hi Gel, thank you! I think Dancin Fool pretty much sums me up!
Once again Happy New Year to you all!
The moon has been simply amazing lately. I have been thinking of taking a shot like that. Great one of SWF!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool capture of the moon!
ReplyDeleteI love Jethro Tull and the moon too!
ReplyDeleteSorry about your blog clean up going south. Sometimes it's very frustrating to work on the computer.
Lovely picture for SWF , many more to come.
ReplyDeleteSJ, thank you. I am glad I caught it, it has been cloudy ever since!
ReplyDeleteThe Arthur Clan, thank you, it was such a perfect still night for it.
Mountain Mama, ah another Tull fan! You wouldn't happen to be a fellow John Denver fan too?
Bowledover, thank you! I hope you are able to return to Sky Watch next week.
