Thanks for the tip! If ever by that way, sleeping outdoors would be awesome to do again.So much better than Algarve.

Like the old fisherman\'s craft has such a central role in the craft of your poetry here. I have slept on the beach, but not recently,... and not under an OFC.... not in a draughty place like Devon and no, on this occasion, alas....

How weird that we both posted verses today on summers ago - - loving your recall of sleeping outside under boats on the beach - to which I say Snap - poetic minds must think alike - - or can you read my mind.............x

\'And if it ever dared rain
or to blow even,
neath the warm yet still
salty and rough
tarpaulined hull\'
(the \'dared\' in these lines
defines your poetry\'s subtlety
so acutely, dear Poet
when gripped within love\'s embrace
even nature \'dare\' not disturb)
a great read! thank you Hyung

I havea cue for a poem in the genre \'Horror\'. \'Neighbours\' is going to return to television. What could be worse? Aren\'t we in enough troubles?
But - why do people add to their own agonies and tortures by watching it?! lol.

Come on Nev - you coulda at least hired a row boat and said \"hello\" to them. I Appreciate hydra woz and still is a fair distance, but that woulda been an experience in poetical/musical memory for you....
The Algarve Sounds great - even if it was a moment in time.....

Paint has never dried more clearly than on this poignant canvas of Box Brownie memories mon dear ami and it takes a real poet to resurrect past moments of loved Olivetti times. A sure fave for my list is this poetic masterpiece......x

Had the privilege of using the Olivetti twice, once on a heavy monster of a machine and the other on a portable lightweight typewriter - both in AZERTY! I lugged one around on a boat and a hut and an island for several years. Hopping poetry while hopping islands.

What can I say that others have not already said, but still, memory lanes are forever etched on our minds, which are brought back to visions when invoked by picturesque venues and romanticized by such poetic words.

As I read, I\'m drawn into this story. With all of the rich imagery I can see you sitting there, feel the emotion, it is that tangible. There is something wonderfully Hemingwayesque in those last lines. A truly remarkable write dear friend, and so bittersweet.

Loving the way your lines took this reader to where time must stand still and old customs still matter - - and also where romance once blossomed and then left a memory - - I can just see you peering at a face half remembered dear Nev - -- so good to see you and your alluring work back again..........x

You are back, Nev! That’s a relief! Thought you might have succumbed to long covid or summat.
Instead you were off to exotic places….. Never been there, but the richness of your lines took me; your last three lines……… there I have been, so thanks…maybe! 🙂

Awe dearest, I find writing helps my memory! Congrats on 800 poems posted! The light will always shine in your soul, forgetfulness is part of aging. Don\'t let the fog stop you from doing the things you love. WiFi is beautiful, but it can be a pain. Enjoy the real world .. Hugs

I read and these words came to me
(Inevitability, as both curse and mercy
ending\'s, as opportunity
to reclaim a little dignity
mindset\'s, pathing our curated fates
old as a positive, to those gleaned wisdom nuggets
we envisage our finite lives and smile
inking our fears free and hiking to our serenity \'hot spot\'s\' of Nature
to download, that legacy bequeathed
by all who came, before
and upload, a few droplets of ourselves
for future generations to find escape within)
thank you! dear Poet
stay safe, cherished friend

Goldie and I are millions of years old. Are you too?!
Well done to get to 800! We both plough on past our 800, churning out summat every day hopefully, even if \'having prepared one earlier\' as they say - Blue Peter, in days of Shep, one of Fido\'s relatives. lol.
