This is a shock, Nev - obviously more than tonsillitis. Intend to share more?
Forget the gulls for the moment - Nurse Deacon had no need to threaten sedation; There\'s not much sleep in hospital no matter how s/he wanted to frame it.

I\'ve heard them and suffered their air raids - little devils - hope you\'re recovering well but don\'t shout back at them - recovery comes first.

At our local pond it\'s a competition between seagulls (in chillier weather - we\'re not near the coast), ducks, moorhens, coots, and even a goose turned up. A crane did not come very close for food.

Those seagulls! Once we were holding ice cream cones and a seagull swooped and took one away from my hand before I had a taste. Yes I can hear them yelling!
Best wishes.

There Are No Snowmen in Mexico
L. B. Mek said:

\'there are no
vacant brass beds anywhere\'..
(or Bob Dylan fans in Minnesota
or Snowmen, that haven\'t wilted
in the Brass face of global warming...)
such a brilliant write!
(cutting commentary of self
and the world and Time\'s around us
and the hollow, meaning-\'less\' bleakness
of the future we\'re walking towards)

Well for him it was true
Who knows what played in her mind
Was it true or just a fantasy of a kind

A thought provoking poetry dear Neville
Some relationships built over frozen sheets of ice

I have it on good authority from Pedro who is \'brake\' in the Yucatan 2nd bob-slay fives team that easter is wet-sand \'snowman\' building season.

The Passing of Hermione
Goldfinch60 said:

Such emotions can be felt by others when drug abuse takes away a person who you know.
Sad words Neville.

The Passing of Hermione
spilleronsheet said:

A tragic read
A dreadful end
Common in so many around
A news which keeping popping in surround
How much grief one holds
That only dope could cure
Alas the months left so small
And sad for those who are left alone after their passing
And hats off to those workers who try their best in rehab centres
I have always felt, this situation is immensely difficult for the friends, family and the warriors who try their best not to lose hope
A wonderfully penned essential poetry dear Neville

You told quite the story with this one although so sad it\'s not a story at all. The last 4 lines are terribly tragic. Great write!

The Passing of Hermione
dusk arising said:

I have known addicts in my years. The one\'s I knew were not terrible people at all. Their habit caused them to do horrible things and i would keep a respectful distance to avoid being taken advantage of. All too often tragic ends make local news. All too often addicts are wrongly identified as being the dregs of society. So misunderstood, they are victims in many ways of crimes lurking in our society.
A very moving piece today.

Paul Bell said:

Sometimes the drug is just more powerful than the person.
Sadly, they all have a story to tell, usually at the end you hear it. Sad poem on a sad subject.

This is unfortunately happening way too often even in my country. Often young women are taken advantage of by syndicates promising them wonderful rewards. A real tragedy.

The Great Barrier Reef brushed my mind
A scenic beauty emerged inside
A beautiful poetry that called calm inside
Thanks dear Neville

Those magical places of yesterday which our dreams romance to re-visit far from the everyday of reality to the land of bliss.

Your poetry is always first class and ethereal which grasps my imagination every time. Here i am drawn in once again to experience the emotion and give some sort of rendering of where my mind is taken. I wish that more on MPS shared your skills.

Now that\'s autobiography rich in detail, Neville - I\'d like to read more of it.
As a side issue - it may also be a memorial to a reef which no longer exists - if the processes in progress Down Under are anything to go by.

Sounds like a beautiful moment and place!
Mine was at The Silver Bell Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas, and I held plastic flowers, no guest... and I wore an orange dress and brown boots..

Good write N. An atmospheric picture.
Aww, why they say \'I don\'t want to be there\', when I say \'I\'m gonna sing at [insert name of place]\'! lol.

Goldfinch60 said:

Wonderful words Neville.
This happened to me recently, a friend had an awful relationship that she eventually ended and during that time I listened to her and wrote poems for her, I also showed her poems including \"And still I rise\" by Maya Angelou, she then had the words

I rise
I rise
I rise

tattooed on her forearm.
