I\'ve been there, Norman. Sometimes you hear news about someone from your past and wish you hadn\'t. Not because you begrudge them their happiness, but because it brings up things you\'d rather leave alone. š¹š¤ššÆļøš¦āā¬

To me this speaks of changes time and distance cause. Distance may make the heart grow fonder but also leads to growing distance between what was and is. Nicely written Norman

Otherworldly this poem feels seductively hypnotic and a bit surreal as it seems to float into that shadowy world of slumber. Nicely crafted with rhyme it purrs. Well done Norman

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Wonderful poem, Norman! I\'ve always been fascinated by abandoned places, especially those where generations of people once earned their living. I often wish those old buildings could talk. Imagine the stories they\'d tell! Much appreciated, my friend! š¹š¤ššÆļøš¦āā¬

Good write N.
Yes, the harbour gates had to close, as the bus for the outing to the harbour took so long - did it even appear at all?! lol.
I though at canal lock was disused, but it\'s used on weekend and a weekday barge trips still. Have to pay. But we could try taking a barge to town. Save waiting at this bus stop. lol.

FACELESS HEADS
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, there\'s something genuinely unsettling about this one. I can\'t quite decide whether I\'d want to investigate further or get the hell out of there! LOL! Either way, you\'ve got my imagination working overtime. š¹š¤ššÆļøš¦āā¬

Norman this one reads so well with its rhyme and meter. After three reads I decided that it can be taken various ways and that flexibility makes it have even greater appeal. Nicely done my friend and a fave

LONE WOLF
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, I think there\'s a little lone wolf in quite a few of us poets. I know mine tends to come out when I\'ve had enough of humanity for one day. š Seriously, though, I enjoyed this one, my friend. š¹š¤ššÆļøš¦āā¬
