Such an emotive verse Nev. The pathos of petalled togetherness when love had beginnings is perfectly poemed in this heart-tugging look back on days of lost summer. Never redundant your heartfelt sentiments always get this reader\'s top marks ............ x

\'Just look,
where they lay now ..
And in such pretty little heaps ..
There, beneath
what was once
our bedroom window ..
Yes there, where we made love,
caught laughter,
and even wrote half decent poetry ..\'
(I love that poise, metaphor
of breath
inhaling and exhaling
from line to line
emoting, just how much
it took, from your
to out these Truths..)
what a brave write! dear Poet supreme
and in your words
my own, windowsills
adorned
by those churned, blossoms
of love
come back, as such vivid
memories
and so I too, reminisce
and write
and write
hoping, a day will come again
when I can make Poetry
out of life...
(ever grateful I read
and heed
and hope, someday
to learn
my cherished friend)
thank you!

Good write Neville.
I recovered after that petit mort thingy. Fido don\'t let me have anything \'exciting\'. He\'s kept me in this sheltered life. lol.
So today - half decent poetry..... as long as it\'s not ropey, grotty, rubbishy! lol.

Petite Mort #2
MendedFences27 said:
Somehow, I sense a passage of time and \" those exquisite little deaths of hers\" become the real thing, a \"near died again, held safe in his arms\" event.
If so, it\'s a sad poem, if not a joyous one. In any event it\'s a well-structured, intriguing, and sensual poem. - Phil A.

What could be better, love reminisced? All those moments that make us smile. Makes you wonder about those people who have a perpetual one on their face. And French to boot, well done!

Ah, in this new wave of gender confusion will we come to recognise the confirmation of gender by the demonstrable capcity to experience la petite mort.
Who are we to interfere when the old ways are the... well they served us well enough i believe.

Well, that\'s a unique comparison. I guess the \"wind\" can do a lot of damage, but it cannot take your freedom. A short but deep poem. - Phil A.

Memories, both fond and fondled, where do they reside? People will say in the heart, but we all know they are in the brain. Tucked away safe and sound and only recalled when sparked by a stimulation.
A sweet recollection poetically recalled and spicing the life of all who read it. - Phil A.

Always wondered if trees hated humans. We always seem to be sticking things into them. Probably why they fall on top of us. She was worth it, wasn\'t she.

\'Oh’ yes,
can you see that old chestnut tree
with your
name and
my initials carved deftly and deep ..\'
(there are a few, around London
that bare my initials
and to know of them is to map
my heart\'s bruises
but, like all things
there\'s always, A one
that stands out
that shameful stain, We
tattooed
our love\'s youthful zeal
on a harmless, tree
in Russell Square gardens
and
decades later
whenever I feel the need, to revisit
and feel that Passion, again
I brush my fingers
upon, it\'s lingering testimony
to She
who visits me, in every other dream
and
I can still, smell
and hear
and so vividly
Feel...!)
thank you!
for inspiring these words
from me dear Poet supreme
one day, I hope
I too can scribble words
that can touch you
in a similar way..

Amazing aren\'t they. Those precious moments we can cherry pick from life. Held in cumulative they bring the reward of knowing we\'ve shared in the rich bounty of life for the living. As gently we relax into older years and applaud the young for their living joy.

Do You Ever Look Back on Those Days
MendedFences27 said:
\"Do you ever look back,\" is somewhat rhetorical. We all look back and what we remember are those we met along the way. How we remember is altered by the experience. Whether, pleasant or grotesque.
Looking back can be a great source of poetry, especially if well done, like here in your poem. I doubt if anyone started reading and didn\'t get to the final line. A most interesting recollection. - Phil A.
