The world is going nuts, yet nature still continues doing what she does best. Hopefully aided by Cop26, but I won\'t hold my breath.

Unfolds petal by petal. A beautiful offering of nature. The beauty of well penned poetry, you know. :-)

Good one dear poet
Captured the emotions of winters and the radio so well
Words on point
Well knit and delivered dear poet

That\'s the leaves fell off (or falling off) the trees then. Won\'t see them again until about Spring time.
The leaves fall later than expected maybe - not usually early October, but later.
Waste of time sweeping them up until they have all fallen, unless they are wet and slippery.

Many need to start writing and fine their way into creating words that are meaningful. Time is a great healer and many will be better in time.

Is \'tongue in cheek\' a get out clause with respect to your criticism, Dusk?

I find myself in total agreement with the sentiments expressed therein and make no apology for this.
Perhaps these \'poets\' should practice the art of lucid grammatical prose before they embark on a poetic journey.

Let\'s start with one issue you mention: the placement of \'to\' and \'too\' in their rightful positions. (I am available for a modest fee...)

How straight you laid the words
It may appear as a scolding
But your true
I agree I have made many a mistakes
Kindly excuse me and guide the way
I hope we can nurture and grow together
Poetry is about emotions and inspirations
At times words can’t define them
Thanks dear poet for this thought provoking note
I shall try to be better in future

I\'ve noticed a lot of poets will tell you to ignore the grammar.
Strangely enough, one word out of place can murder a poem.

Sometimes whole poems appear in foreign wording, e.g. Greek. But it\'s blips in the system. And sometimes the text appears normal to those who have posted the poems.

Yes serious poetry freaks like me find an absorbing amount of time reading other poetic work makes for a fuller understanding of things pertaining to writing i.e. syntax and correct spelling which we all need for success with expression and can be found here on M.P. S.with plenty of tips seen on posts from experienced writers and can help on any chosen subject - -- - thanks dear Dusk for sharing your own feelings and thoughts on postings left minus the editing that I find I myself so often need.

I guess sometimes people make mistakes in their writings , but I understand that it’s sometimes difficult to read poems with a lot of errors . Although I can’t say I’ve read many poems on here with a lot of those .

A good poem tho , dusk . I guess sometimes we may need to look at our writings again to see if we need to edit it

Agree that this reads like a love song and one that can never end despite all the niggles neither can say goodbye.

There must be a moral in this story.
Which actually might be another poem. Bet he wished he\'d married her sister instead.

\'Watched a film last nite where a robbers wife shot him dead which made me all goooey and romantic\'..

No! not over

(thanks for sharing Dusk
and reminding us
of Poetry\'s capacity for keeping things light and fun)

Superb penning in this thought provoking piece.
Love:
\"...So roll over,
back to sleep,
buy more plastic,
travel more miles,
consume more energy
luxuriate....
complacency only
kills people
somewhere else
on my TV screen
why bother me ?...\"

I\'ll vote for that, dusk - your piece that is, not the situation it describes so eloquently.

indeed,
its only indifference
if we first admit - our awareness;
until then
its all deemed: \'Ignorance\'
right?
\'Wilful: ignorance!\' that is...
(important and Essential words, Dusk!
thanks for sharing, dear Poet)

A dire warning set in your talented words dear Dusk - we all need to read this verse over and over to realize that we as individuals can change habits and help reverse what is unthinkable.

A very good write dear poet….what ought to be and what are we doing…looks like we are distancing ourselves from solutions and creating more problems…

A fine write dusk. I suppose it\'s easy to forget if it\'s happening \'somewhere else\', and just go back to sleep.

Very strong words d a, if only people would listen to the truth, if only those in power would tell the truth.

If only - the most challenging words in life.
