Looking Back Long, Hard and Slow
Bella Shepard said:

To remember where, when and with whom we shared the sweetest moments of our lives is a reminder that nothing is ever lost, only stored for safe keeping to be retrieved and savored over and over again. Beautifully and lovingly written dear friend, thank you for sharing.

A fine recollection, full of color and heat, from the \"desert\" to the \"sheets.\"
These look-backs to olden love have a way of leaving a warm glow in the hearts of readers and authors alike. Maybe it was those \"sun-kissed undulations,\" but this poem drew me into it. Sometimes we wish we could just grab \"a handful of light\" for inspiration. Truly enjoyed by me. - Phil A.

Penned expertly those days long ago where naught can alter love once so beautifully shared. A first rate piece of memory\'s reflection on summers ago...............x

Dunno how I missed this before, Nev - mind if I keep and use at a timely moment in a relationship of mine?
Should ensure a beautiful moment or two, no risk.
Thanks

Ah - - another gem to lift readers hearts Nev. -- - From the title alone I could feel the closeness to someone well loved seeping out of metaphor. Such is what\'s offered in a truly classical romantic ode.

Lost for words Neville. Yours is a precious statement of....(I may come back to that - in the meantime I bow to Teddy\'s contribution above_)

Given it\'s form, I believe it should be chiseled into a tall granite column and placed prominently for all to read.

Just a Few of the Things I Don’t Like Without You

Oh there\'s the romantic side of Neville! I love this poem. I read it so fast I thought the title was \"Just a few of the things I don\'t like about you\" Ha! I was expecting a very different poem but pleasantly surprised!

While Drowning off Padliegh Hill
arqios said:

Oh my Nev, when I was turning five I too had a drowning experience in the river that ran through my grandparent\'s property in my mum\'s hometown. After having been fished out, pumped of water and sufficiently revived I returned early next morning on the shallow end to conquer my fear, to get back on the proverbial saddle. Quite a resonant poem for myself. Thanks for sharing your poem and memory. It takes courage and mental fortitude to accomplish even that!
