and tupac\'s \'brenda\'s got a baby\'..
so poignant and thought provoking
at this time of year..

A Reflection Upon a Youth in Passing
L. B. Mek said:

(this that accursed duality of life
we breathe in our demise
and blink forth to our end
in every treasured moment
alive...)
but ending\'s can offer solace
aside our laments and fear
it\'s a question of perspective
truly..
(so knee-cracking relatable Hyung
promise me a seat at your table
on that other side
of that six feet divide
and I\'ll promise to buy
an eternity of drinks!)
cheer\'s, to a life bravely Lived dear Poet
🍻😎
let\'s smile in defiance till that very last
with one eye open
and the other
lost within that embrace of remembrance
for why else did we strive to accumulate
all those sunrise and sunset, experiences
in our lives!
cheers 🍻

The Gardeness
L. B. Mek said:

(and how she plucked and mapped
curated a path to a blossoming garden
as life, by each others side
but he
was rooted to the weeds
that sculpted him, into the very man
she fell for...)
hence why tragedies, always make for best sellers
and Shakespeare reigns supreme
for all life
is a tragedy, waiting
to be captured in ink, everything else
is mere history and art...
(Brilliant!
dear Poet supreme
so loved the tone)

L. B. Mek said:

and Defiantly! proud
long in-to Spring\'s gusts
may their flag be raised
fluttering and high
as I fear we\'ll still be hoping
and wishing, when Easter\'s festivities roll around...
an important write, thank you Hyung

that itch
waiting for it to come and define
all that we\'ve built and hoped for..
I love the confessional theme
and yet your wording is so open
to interpretation and personalisation..
showcasing great skill, so well executed
thank you! dear cherished Poet

I wish I could forget KP, even though I only see her 1% of the time in our marriage now! lol. I\'m horrible to her. heehee.
But there she is, on TV or in newspapers, etc. I don\'t notice any difference, It\'s as though she is with me 100% of the time. Doh!
Misogynist? Nope, I can\'t even spell the word without looking it up. You know Miss Hodge-Innist?
Do shut up now Orchi, says Fido. lol.

A Reflection Upon a Youth in Passing
Fay Slimm. said:

Just a thought after reading these few grieving lines Nev. - down through the ages ladies and some gents spent fortunes to by-pass signs of decline in shape and form - - yet beauty they say comes from inside not out and restores outer wrinkles to ageless glory - well methinks that\'s worth trying for someone who mourns passing youthdom. Oooh ( Hope this last word raises a smile ) ...............x

orchidee said:

Doh! Why bother we may say, if pessimistic. Why bother to be born, if we start to die from that day onwards?
There is more to it than that, positively, thankfully.
But I often remind KP of the negative aspect of this, to make her miserable. lol.

orchidee said:

Did I meet her?! lol.
Can\'t I remember these lasses myself?
It\'s like the annoying someone who says \'Remind me about it in a week, will ya?\' Ain\'t they got a mind to remember it themselves? lol.

Well said, Neville.
I have found being left with the poem in time you are the better for it.

Apposite reminder of a hideous situation existing while most of us enjoy the festive season, Nev.

Ukraine in Winter
Bella Shepard said:

What is it in the human soul that will not allow us to succumb in the direst of situations. Is it faith, fervor, strength, a firm belief in what is truly right and wrong? You pay homage to all that binds us together dear poet in that wonderful last line.

Too easy indeed my friend to not only imagine but strive to seek further aid for these innocent victims of battling politics - -- a needed reminder indeed.............x

Did I meet her? Why she smashing up all the mirrors? lol. Is she a relation of KP whose mirrors breaks as soon as she looks in them?! lol.

Fay Slimm. said:

A stanza of maybe confession of blame before naming those broken promises mirrored in a fading relationship - - yes familiar complaints arise in this impressive verse Nev. - - - I give a wry smile at the last question asking when a seven year prophesy of resultant bad luck is going to end. Another smooth taste of your innate talent with word-usage here my clever friend............x
