Argh. I am sorely tempted to include a fitting clip from National Lampoon\'s Vacation, but as it wouldn\'t be a link in this box, I\'ll spare you.
Oh, but how exquisite this delicious piece is! How expertly rendered with daintily perfect imagery and a subtly tantalizing poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing!

Cheeky Missy said:

Ah me, forsooth. Twas a time when youth, the visionary, swore on dreams and saw further than the present, and in that reality what wasn\'t perfect, eh? But aka Goldfinch60 knows half of what my father did and there was NO disappointment. But enough of that. Expertly rendered in a tidy quatrain rhymed to specifications, with lovely imagery to boot and a fitly haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing, Sir.

You strike a chord for one who is well past the half way mark, those were the days my friend. What would we do without nostalgia?

I know it well - the older you get the bigger get the ear lobes and belly whilst, as someone once put it, your d**k gets smaller.

Lit and dovetailing! Now there’s a sight to behold, well… better to be entangled in than be a peeper tommer…

Cheeky Missy said:

And thus we see the triumph of sheer feelings in the justification of all manner items under discussion, in this particular case, some religious edifice was the resting place for a copy of the Scriptures and a book of poetry. Nevermind whose ejaculations were codified in poetic form, they were laid to rest in some religious edifice. Fascinating and beautifully rendered with superb imagery and a haunting, tantalizing poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Its something I could see myself doing - maybe because I\'m atheist and would have no use for them but maybe also becuase I respect thase that do and human nature requires us all to put back into society

Grief is a funny bedfellow and dictates we do things and go through rituals that don’t always make much sense, but often bring healing. Well done, friend, in expressing that! The late poet, and God, are smiling, imho! Well done, Neville! 🌹👏❤️‍🩹

sorenbarrett said:

All things return to their origin and no less here. In that cycle there is a sense of completion. Then in metaphor it becomes all of our old beliefs that we shed and return to its place of origin leaving them by the old symbols of faith. Deep and heavy the words covering this grave of thoughts Neville

A proper sending off always makes us feel better, no matter the tradition followed. It’s a kind of closure wrapped together with respect and love. At least that’s the way it seems. Thanks for sharing.

Cheeky Missy said:

I shall feign a sense of wisdom not erst wont to be in view and refrain from begging the finer details pertaining to this particular stanza, though half fainting with curiosity. Why, why, why on earth my brother\'s book of [--] Jokes You Can\'t Resist was dredged up by your choice imagery, I can\'t guess, the blank white page portraying ghosts in a snowstorm roasting marshmallows too vividly before me oddly. Okay, enough of such rambling. Beautifully rendered with excellently evocative imagery and a heartbreaking poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Your compassion and understanding are ever present in your words, and they are truly appreciated, particularly at this time of disillusionment in the world, and in my country. Thank you my friend, I\'m so glad to be back among those who care. Peace & Love!

If, indeed, we\'d signed onto this, we\'d have no excuse for breathing, says me. Aptly rendered in such delightfully tasteful tercet stanzas capably conveying the essence of now, with such excellent imagery and humor to boot, we thanks thee for sharing, good Sir.
