silence
Fay Slimm. said:

This special remembrance as your verse reveals must never be forgotten dear Dusk - those who went down then would abhor the times since when war has take so many more. Thank you for this
timely reminder of a moment\'s silence and all it means.

Glad to have caught this sad and solemn re-post - full of atmospheric imagery and that final line brought such a lump to my throat - - a really compelling read Dusk.

they never leave you
Doggerel Dave said:

Linger not, stranger; shed no tear.

Go back to those who sent us here.

We are the young they drafted out

To wars their folly brought about.

Go tell those old men, safe in bed,

We took their orders and are dead.

Very essential and crucial message you spoke
Irony lies when people think about peace by wars beside
To them why doesn’t all lives matter
I wish all could be loved and respected
Well crafted dear poet

(after those few, nervous
first few time\'s
we soon forget, just how sacred
a gift
we experience, when we become close
to someone
whose proximity, is enough
to fulfil: our every desire...)
a succinct, but nuanced exposition of the true meaningful worth
in that universally shared concept
of intimacy;
and as-ever wonderfully penned, Dusk
a great shorty!

Great work dear poet
It’s sad and most difficult to go through
It’s unimaginable about the pains of the treatment and the pain a person goes through
You laid it in the words so appropriate
Not been through the same pain
But covid too was painful
Can’t match up to the pains you suffered
But I can understand
It’s painful for the patient and their closed ones
Strength to all those and Leah God help them to get over it soon with less pain
It’s not easy to endure

Less is so much more at times. This poem proves it. Lush. Sensual. Simple. It\'s admirable.

Unspeakable really dusk – though I’ll try.

A picture of a great health system under strain through inadequate funding – shocking suffering for you.
‘Tell you – very therapeutic would be to transfer your obvious writing skills into a complaint.
Worked for me – I progressed from the in-house complaints system to a Health Complaints Commissioner body to the appropriate MP (Minister of Health) to a full apology, an undertaking to clean up their practice from the CEO of the relevant health network. Took eight months , but was worth the effort. All after stuffed treatments resulted in a flu which became pneumonia followed by an opportunistic lung infection and an eight (coincidentally) week hospital stay.

Paul Bell said:

Covid sure changed everything, and definitely not for the best. I notice now they don\'t even mention the dead and dying, as if it\'s an inconvenience.
Having watched the brother-in-law getting sent home because of different hospitals mixing up drugs, I can relate to your write.

A haunt of a read showing the painful complexities of understaffed health service to such as yourself Dusk - - your grinning and bearing the needed treatment is a shining example to us all of your extra-courageous fight against Neutropenia - -- sending cuddles galore to our M.P.S. hero.........

Powerful Dusk. I can relate on much less drastic level with that experience you\'ve just penned. Sadly, very true. Sadly.

Fay Slimm. said:

Your words move slowly to capture the experience of \"reality\'s harbinger\" and touch the heart of this reader with such courage as you face the lash of another days\' coping with treatment - -- hats off and big hugs to you dear Dusk.

I sympathise, though unable to empathise (deeper than sympathy), thankfully not having been in said situation.
Medicines and prayers (Christian healing ministry) going together? The latter seems less painful. Or as some say \'Give anything a try\'.

Strong emotive words showing how hard it is in the NHS nowadays, the politicians could fix this but show no inclination of so doing.
