A soft promise in a poem that seems a pledge as well. Nicely done my friend. Sorry for the delayed response I have been traveling for the past two days with no internet access

For a Child
Friendship said:

A powerful poem. Your poem centers on the profound love and commitment a speaker feels for a child, likely a lost or unborn one. The poet expresses a deep sense of responsibility to live fully and meaningfully in honor of this child, acknowledging the fragility of life. Yet you encompass themes of love, memory, loss, and the desire for legacy, suggesting an emotional bond that transcends mortality.

Neville, this really lands…that quiet vow to carry forward, especially in that promise to live those tomorrows on their behalf. It feels intimate and enduring without needing to name more. There’s something deeply moving in that. Beautiful write, my friend. And oooh. A new anthology in the works. Yesss!!! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

The Impact of Sudden Unexpected Realisation
MendedFences27 said:

Those \"time drops\" will eventually move in to stay. With each one comes a memory. The history of one\'s life will be written in the creams and ointments applied to dull the pain or pills swallowed to keep the body whole. It tastes bittersweet, passionate memories and troublesome regrets. They call it life. Eventually time wins out and we all pay the price. Your poem definitely has an impact of time catching up with a fully lived life. - Phil A

Neville, those “time drop visitations”…that image sticks. It gives time a physical presence, something that arrives and leaves a mark. That’s what anchors it. Beautifully done on this, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Time hits like a fist wrapped in memory—bitter, vivid, and unrelenting.
Your words carry the weight of both regret and quiet revelation.

This poem like a free association runs from one thing to the next flowing ever downward as water pulled by the gravity that draws it to its mother sea. Nice Neville

The Principle of Sameness

The sameness is the thing often overlooked or totally ignored, to our detriment. 🕊️🙏

The Principle of Sameness
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Neville, this hit me hard…there’s a quiet unease running through it that doesn’t let go. It feels watchful…like something just out of sight but never gone. That closing turn lands with a kind of weary knowing. Strong piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Thomas W Case said:

Fine work, my friend. Silent, sly, and patient—they move in the shadows while the world blinks.
A whisper can cut sharper than a scream when the same old dance repeats.

The Principle of Sameness
Doggerel Dave said:

Precisely where the power lies. In many ways untouchable. Politicians are such clowns by comparison. The clowns at the circus, in fact. In a nutshell, Neville.

They are always there but unseen. A lovely write that gives me deja vu feels.

Those bars and safety nets are in most of our lives Neville.

MendedFences27 said:

Clinging to something in case it may be needed, or in case it became an excuse to pay another visit. Never let go of everything. Although the acrobat and ballerina would be a hard act to follow. I doubt it\'s for reference. Maybe the acrobat could \"bend over backwards\' while the ballerina \"stays on her toes\"? A simile with a smile, or smirk. Loved it. - Phil A.

Doggerel Dave said:

Who took the bars and who took the safety net? Or did they make an exchange at predetermined intervals? and what was the precise nature of their relationship prior to... and what\'s more, did they both live happily ever after? Too many unanswered questions, Neville - you are going to have to pull your socks up (One of the great advantages of living in a warm climate is the lack of sock wearing activity for most of the year.)
