Old pictures viewed in today\'s mode must have seemed to perpetuate people yet traits remembered bring back even the taste and smell of someone much missed - - at least I think that is the message behind this intriguing read - - well perhaps maybe......x

That sounds really painful … not being able to fully move away from something … almost makes me think of feeling a sense of feeling trapped . Just how I read it anyway
I can’t say I fully understand this but you seem to be trying to say a lot in just a few lines

Wasn’t it those pints that loosened our tongues and gotten us in that ‘truth be told’ mess to start with. Well maybe them those pints, as you said, will get us out of it….

or count to 3 and allow me to create distance,
so as to step, back
into your good books
without, the hassle
of a soon-to-be regretted
bust-up, or three...
🍻
here\'s to our hard earned appreciation
for avoiding, futile confrontation!

sadly, its only when we witness
the truly good, among us
leave - behind, as many regrets
as those of us, who watched-on
as mere spectators,
we get to realise
just how fleeting, our Now
truly is..
(reads like a poignant scene from a well written novel or play)
a delightful read
thanks for sharing, dear Poet

The friendship we endure, must strain to first recall the imperfections, and in their absence must wonder why we even ventured so…..even when beckoned by your poetic words.

Oh i recall the days when i threw arrows at your image and mocked every utterance upon your breath.
But then i learned to voice your name so slowly that, apart from strange looks as I noised that name in a dirge of meditational transit, my mind began to see the messiah within your very soul.....
Now there\'s a story it would be difficult to live up to.

A moment of heat
A moment of rush
Always makes us take the bad decisions
Especially the words chosen at that moment be so rude
That we may end up hurting others
Thank you dear poet for the message, if we can assign imperfections to others. Then we must remember no one exists without flaws.

Interesting way with words … good poem . I guess sometimes we can forget the imperfections ,
Not good to always focus on that which we see at fault with someone ejse

Nothing lasts forever
What a provoking thought
It maybe bad
But it maybe good
Nothing lasts forever
Not even our mistakes
Not even our falls
Today you might be trough
Tomorrow become a rise
Today you may be sad
But nothing lasts forever
Not even your grief

My Dear Neville,
You’re spot on with your inked words…
……. ‘without any warning, whatsoever
that nothing
lasts forever and there is no taste
at all to those last
few crumbs we each leave behind ..’ …….
Lasting forever!? …
no such thing…
and those ‘few crumbs’ are best left behind…
at least in my opinion.

Forever? Even the tales of history\'s greats fades.... I know little of my father other than the front he presented to the world... i hope my son will know the real me... that may last a few years.
Forever is for the future to judge and we have no place in it.

A tender moment caught and revealed in fine fashion. Sunday morning breakfasts have always meant the beginning of Family day. Gatherings that portend of visits from the children and grandchildren, now. So, it\'s lovingly started with a kiss at breakfast. Yes, your poem develops the scene beautifully and the \"fine china\" gives it a sense of importance. It reminded me of so many similar moments. Loved it. - Phil A.

so like, this intoxicating feeling - here
we\'re experiencing
after finishing your beautiful poem
is what all those romance flicks and books
try to emulate and recreate...
such distilled poignancy,
amazingly transparent sensuality,
and those subtle notes of love\'s unquantifiable levels
of instinctive intimacy!
thank you,
this is such a treat, to read, dear Masterful Poet!
and I fully appreciate the imbued potential, in your poetry
to initiate the flood
of cherished images and memories
we\'re all recollecting and delighting-in, after reading it
