Garth Rakumakoe said:
Sounds to me like the start of what is to be a happy ending, or a very sad one. There\'s no telling I guess. Very well executed Paul. Ta.

The act of choosing hopefully meant he saw the options available to him. Where some see rainbows and fabled crock of gold others see talons and deep scars.
Another Nevillesque piece to put the mind into a state of quandary.

That was neat and easy to relate to, Nev.
My problem is I am talentless when it comes to condolences - words from me seem so inadequate.

Neville,
Today is one of those days for ‘us’ to weep, to grieve, to hurt, to commiserate, to cope with our loss, to focus on the happy moments we shared, tell her how much she’s loved, and that one day we will be together again. Your beautifully penned poem is very relatable. May they both Rest In Peace.♥️♥️

somehow,
a gust of mourning\'s wind
that\'s not mine, to emote
or partake - in, invaded
and I had watery eyes, while reading
your lines
(I\'m sorry for your loss, my friend
may, she forever: rest in peace)

On Being Called to War
SureshG said:
War is inevitable and loss of life it’s by-product, but each individual must have the right to decide if the cause is justified.
Yet you have prosed the horrors of war so eloquently

How in goodness\'s name I always ask myself does a young man know how he will react to war..... we do so so so underestimate what it must take for them to do this and I\'ve read so much especially about WWII (in the Pacific even more than Europe) and Vietnam and just can\'t figure out how they stayed sane. God bless them all......

Well written! War and tears go hand in hand!
White feathers to me are pure, that\'s where I stand! Seriously though! Lots of young men lost their lives, they had no choice, perhaps some ran!

Nicholas Browning said:
I\'m afraid I can\'t quite grasp what the white feather symbolizes, so I did some digging. Apparently a white feather on the cap, at least in terms of war, symbolizes cowardice. If so the poem makes much more sense but then again I could be wrong. Either way I enjoyed the read and research.

L. B. Mek said:
there are many wars, we\'re
called to
that are not ours, to wage
or fight - for..
some by loyalty
of the flag we love
and proudly: serve..
and some, by the profession
we choose to dedicate
or life: to...
many wars, and many
far, far - Too Many
unremembered Heroes..
and this poem, you share
dear empathetic Poet
be, worded testimony
to the legacy of their
incalculable sacrifices
and heroic deeds!

Given that particular time and situation I\'m pretty sure one of two actions would have been undertaken: I become a collector of white feathers OR I enlist, go to the front and shoot my foot off.....
Thanks Nev - WW1 is something I find hard to, yes, forget.

Unless called upon to defent this land I hold dear, then give me a white feather and give my uniform, boots and arms to the politician.

Also - Help! It\'s not so old maybe. In a mainly elderly people\'s church I heard a couple discussing a memorial of their grand-father or someone, who had been in the Boer War!
