Well that\'s no idle ability, unless you are blessed and just wandering virtual fields! A nice poem to riff off M. E. M. Haha it makes me think back not forward but that\'s a matter of years not words. A good read thanks.

ANGELA HERE ~ Good Evening M E M thanks for sharing A very moving Poem in the Classical Vilanelle Style. The Subject *Aprehension about the Memory of One when we die* suits the genre and the pathos is reinforced by the repetition & rhyme ! Thanks for sharing ~ please check our site.

Love ~ Joy & Peace to You & Yours

That is how copy/paste interprets your rubbish. Think they\'ve got it about right..

I do like this, speaking as it does of fragility and defiance. Great examples of love in stages of growth. Thanks for sharing

I\'m only seeing images/letters in Greek - honestly! It happens sometimes. A blip on the site, I thhink, affecting some browsers or something.
I can translate it - will take me a while.

String
dusk arising said:

Oh i read into this that thing which so many have injected into their fearful childhood minds and haunts them for the rest of their lives.... god, heaven and hell and all that stuff.

Me and many like me cut those strings and found freedom.

Religious types lost in their bible babble etc need to be reminded that love, goodness, charity, and a wholesome way of living and caring existed long before some bloke invented their way of thinking.

I related to your piece in this way and found it most enjoyable. So much so that i\'m adding it to my favourites.

I can see the fear in this poem... But like many poems written in the past, it is only fear and not what is to come

ooh the world\'s going to end this year. Just like it was supposed to end last year and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that oh and coincidentally the year before that too.

Did we imagine starting 2020 that we would enter such enigmatic times? How ironic that, midst natural challenges that should unite mankind, the petty politics of the resentful continues to assert itself. That is the most bizarre thing to me... it\'s as if they will politicize an asteroid about to collide with earth.

Whereas I do agree with your sentiments, I can see from across the ocean that poor ambiguous leadership has encouraged their behaviour. Strong steadfast leadership is what is required.

I worry that in the event of a second wave of restrictions, brought about by lax management of current restrictions, will lead to serious civil unrest in usa.

dusk arising said:

Some of us conceal life\'s scars more effectively than others do. Some people would weep everytime they recall the cause of those scars so rather than weep they are poker faced. You can\'t read a book by looking at the cover is a very true saying.
There are streets full of survivors who you will never see. They conceal it so well.

Mind you, if they were all poets, reading their poetry would be revealing.
