Glad I am not the only person whose head went in this direction! Very well done 🙂
Thank you, Angie! It’s not the only direction I thought about, so I may even do a second one…
It is the only direction my brain went in!
A couple of additional thoughts that crossed my mind were musical, as in ‘ferry cross the Mersey’ and Bryan Ferry 🙂
Good post….🌹
Thank you!
Ha! Would have liked to see all of your ideas together – Brian Ferry taking over Charon’s job while he’s on holiday, serenading the dead with Ferry cross the Mersey perhaps?
I do like the image of the ferryman – sort of creepy, but so symbolic too, that transition from life to death. Great stuff 🙂
Thank you, Lynn! Yes, lots of weird detours in my brain 🙂
Haha! Love a weird detour … 🙂
I like this very much.
Thank you!!
You conjure up so much with so few words! I’m hoping for a Bryan Ferry version, as well 🙂
Hmmm… I bet I can 🙂
