Resting Light on a Wing and Prayer
spilleronsheet said:

Those ambitions setup high
Doesn’t allow me to rest for a while
A great one dear poet
A rest is surely needed
The slice of sky what a great expression
Aren’t we all birds of paradise

spilleronsheet said:

How romantic
Those words of yours
The lady in context keeps high in curiosity
For the words in praise so charming to eyes

L. B. Mek said:

lol
the poor lady, in her
eyes
you\'re enamoured
by her, daintily quirks..
where as
your thought\'s
are mapping, murderous
intentions...
(ahh, those tinted eyes
of romance)
a fun read, thanks for sharing
dear Poet

dusk arising said:

There\'s many a rolling R\'s to be observed on the high street too. And other feminine whiles are seen in the coffee shop and around the ballroom.... (sighs)

Your poetry creates visions to stir the morning into life.

He was a man with secrets of his own, parading as views hidden in plain sight. Everybody saw them, but only he knew about them.

Best not tell me what she served without any argument. I will only swoon. Fido says it will be too much for me! lol.

Monogrammed, laundered and ironed to perfection (No innuendo intended). Symmetrical perfection, Nev.

Garth Rakumakoe said:

It is poignant in its own way, Neville, and as usual its emotion is quite well carved out. You have a brilliant pen and mind sir.

First Nev, I have to state that I like the piece but am unable to put my rational spin on it. Further, I see some connection to the poem immediately preceding.......

spilleronsheet said:

So emotional and so poignant
The words brought tears
And so many memories lingered beside
To those whom I lost
I wonder whether they are happy where they are
I wonder if they are watching me
Such a mourning
I remember my grand parents
With whom most of my childhood memories are embed in my mind
I am pretty sure they are watching me
Well penned dear Neville
The poetry felt so personal to me
Thank you for sharing

An All Too Certain Falsity
Garth Rakumakoe said:

How at times you say so much about a theme or subject without saying much is something I admire in your writing style Neville. You do minimalism so well and and so revealingly. This is another such piece. It\'s a rare quality, and a form of craft to marvel at. Thank you for gracing us yet again.

Beautifully told, of emotions contortions as we endure trying times in \'togetherness\'.

\'I just
could not find the right words
to place

inside
this mourning song
for safe keeping,\'..
(how acutely, you portray
that need, to feel
like our Time spent
at another\'s side, won\'t
be considered, so miniscule
and steeped in irrelevance, in seconds
after, that abrupt goodbye
of our raked-raw, worded emotions..)
subtly poignant, a heart wrenching depiction
of the person in the relationship
who, lingers
in the embers of the ruins, long abandoned...
simply beautiful, dear masterful Poet
love the unassuming flow and accessible wording
one of your very Best!
\'in my humble opinion\'

A haunt of a mourning song this - it
reminds me that \"Parting is such sweet sorrow \" when hearts want to linger on........ tender as ever mon ami are these lines of gentle appeal.......x

An All Too Certain Falsity
L. B. Mek said:

love your accessible wording
and blunt - poetic transparency, dear Poet
\'sadly, I have experienced your words
from both sides, of the blame assigning bridge;
where, we choose to label - quickly
so-as to bottle
and limit
the debris, from what
we once deemed, indestructible
that need to assert, blame
to - A, side...
while in reality
the gradients, in our relationship\'s - demise
was as equal, as the attraction
we both gave-in, too
knowing
beyond those aesthetic, tethers
we really
had little foundation, to build-on
in the first place...!\'

An All Too Certain Falsity
dusk arising said:

Always aware of the unspoken words I begin to wonder whether the non speaker has the intelligence to realise what they are not saying. Is it willful, are they stupid or am I a pawn in an awful game.
