A Technicolor Day
L. B. Mek said:
really well written, galloping line from line smoothly,
a wonderful flow
thanks for sharing dear Poet
\'I shall write a poem or sing a song,
maybe climb a mountain peak,
find a friend to take along,
we\'ll do something quite unique.
This is a day when nothing is wrong.
The thrills are for those who seek
with determined will and courage strong,
not the frightened or the meek.\'

A Technicolor Day
Doggerel Dave said:
Words don\'t desert you do they? (sorry if you\'ve heard it before).
I really fancy the structure and rhymes. Such days do exist - just infrequent enough to be really valued - which is as it should be.

Great piece of satire which hums along with pace rhythm and direction.
Tempted to do a \'let\'s have more\' until I realize you have an extensive back catalogue to poke around in....

Writing is within us and we write how we want to put our feelings on the page.
Good words.

By all means \"Lay aside the rules and the style\" if you so wish - your choice. But if no one then understands what you\'re on about, it was wasted effort, surely?

Wave Goodbye, Say Hello
L. B. Mek said:
a good read,
indeed not all relationships become so profound, some we hardly recall,
but then that reminds us - most of the people we treasure in our memories: have long since forgotten us...

Living Questions

There are so many questions in our life, many are answered and allow you to move forward, some cannot be answered so just leave them that way and move on.
The question \'why\' can never be amswered.

And perhaps compromise comes later still. Some questions are so huge we cannot answer them, yet time can have a way of changing the question.

I Will Pay You Back Next Week
Goldfinch60 said:
The \'Bank of Mum and Dad\' is the most used bank in the world.
One family set up their answerphone when there children called:
\"If you are one of our children asking for a loan, press 1\"
If you are one of our children asking us to help you with something, press 2\"
\"If you are one of our children ringing to ask how we are, check you have dialed the right number!\"

The Day The Carousel Stopped
L. B. Mek said:
deep, deep insight to the fallible aspects within humankind,
some thought provoking and well thought-out gems:
\' We, carnivores of consumption,
devour ourselves one deceit at a
time until the plate is clean and the
cupboard is bare.\'

The Day The Carousel Stopped
MendedFences27 said:
My first visit here. I kind of like this poem. Assuming it about the day the earth stands still, the apocalypse, the end of the world. I like the comparison to a carousel. Also the implication that it was a self- destructive event, that Man is in some way responsible, that Man\'s own self-interest brought this to happen, makes the whole poem a wake-up call. Also enjoyed the colorful language you employed to paint the dismal outcome. All in all a very interesting and readable poem. - Phil A.

Some Day
jarcher54 said:
Some day we hope. We aren\'t doing a very good job of it right now, we are quite unworthy of tribute from nature at this point. Thanks for a beautiful vision. No matter one\'s creed or beliefs, that unity is more than a metaphor. We all know good and well what you mean. It hurts because we humans as a species are right now so far from embracing our obvious oneness.

Singing Hope

I am in three choirs and have not sung with any of them since lockdown and we do not think we will be able to sing together again until next year.
We still sing within our hearts for our \'troubled world\'.

A Lot About Nothing At All
dusk arising said:
Thank you so much for this piece of pure entertainment. Written in a style which takes me back to my young schooldays when cleverly written verse were read to us.
I am left feeling i have just been shown how to write an enthralling entertaining well rounded piece with a very cute ending and message.
