While Watching Swifts
Bella Shepard said:
Beautifully expressed dear friend, I think it\'s all three. I can see the urge in the artist to paint it, the longing of heart to absorb it and the need in the poet to capture it in words, which is exactly what you have done. I love the way you have traced the movement of the swifts, and the visual of color.

Old crumpled photos can bring instantly back those golden days when love understood and a heart saw freckles as golden gems. An evocative read mon ami.

A memory without remorse, Neville - the very best kind when it involves someone so special.

The heart, the great symbol of love and life. Listen to it; calming, steady, reassuring, the beat of love in one precious to you. Beautifully expressed!

You\'re mum sounds like a very special lady, who appreciated the sweetest sounds in life. You have captured this beautifully in a tender poem of love. She taught you well my friend.

Not quite sure of this one, Nev (not an uncommon experience here..).
Josie, it seems was cajoled into hard dangerous work with sweet flattering talk... and then Mum gets the blame...
Alas, I\'ll never understand poets....

Why Not Just Throw Away The Key

There is no sensibility here, only burning desire. She was only pretty as in \"pretty satisfying.\"
But your poem raises the quandary quite well. Is she perceived as a person or a means to satisfaction.? So, in that sense, it makes sense, Thoroughly enjoyed it, even if it wasn\'t the most beautiful. - Phil A.

Not got a clue, that\'s me. Nick Drake, sad story, sad life, sad way to end it all. Genius at music, though. Maybe someday we\'ll understand the brain completely and be able to treat such depressions. Trying to interpret what you wrote, I guessed that as weathermen can\'t predict or control the weather, so too doctors can\'t always treat mental illness. Well, enjoyed the poem and listened to some of his music. So now I\'m more enlightened than before I read this. Thank you. _ Phil A.
