Every Tuesday, step by step, since 2011, I’m walking with my readers from A to Z, last week we had “F”, so this week we’ll focus on “G” – I’m sure you’ll also find a story or a music title tagged with “G”: Feel free to add in the comments below the link to your personal interpretation of the letter “G”!!! Myself I’ll mention Gypsy music:

I would be happy, if every city in the world would offer a piano or at least a guitar at a public location, to motivate the people to make some communication about music!

Greater Caucasus – a part of the world not many outside of the Caucasus know and yet it is very beautiful. Join me to a trip to Lahıc, an old village in the foothills of the Greater Caucasus.

I like the table on the grass: “At the entrance to Lahıc is the paradise garden, a restaurant and basic accommodation within an extant orchard and meadows. A perfect place to have Azerbaijani breakfast with tendir bread, honey and qaymaq…”

“To go all round The Wrekin” means to ramble on for hours before arriving at the point.
P.S.:
you are describing a feeling I often have during a discussion or during writing a blog post. One of my favorite essays: “Über die allmähliche Verfertigung der Gedanken beim Reden” by Heinrich von Kleist, in English: “On the Gradual Production of Thoughts Whilst Speaking” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinrich_von_Kleist#On_the_Gradual_Production_of_Thoughts_Whilst_Speaking

hi Kathryn, every garden gate is a barrier to come in or (more important) to get out again, imprisoned flowers – though they could not march, creep or dance out, trying to reach the street and other gardens…

P.S.:
that’s typical American dream, isn’t it?
And the European adore the big cities and skyscrapers.

How hopelessly out of date I am with your challenge, Frizz! 😦 I’m listening to your lovely rendition of Greensleeves as I type, and smiling. No excuses- sorry, I just cannot find time, but I miss you!
