Brilliant!

Neville, (this is where I get thrown out of MPS for heresy) I find the (very well constructed) poem a bit sus - or rather the interpretations placed upon it by your esteemed correspondents.
I believe it\'s about the \'him\' glowing in self satisfaction at his smoothly (but thin) polished exterior.

Regards, Dave

I not met any gals named Vermeil, I must admit! She sounds like an eloquent lass, as expressed here.
A tapestry clinging... see, I\'m nicking Gold\'s words. The unforgivable sin of plagiarism!

That swansong is within all of us but we still have too much to do to sing it yet.

Looking through the looking glass does funny things, like when it\'s mushroom season! Then Alice finds the reason....

Couldn\'t help myself! Great stuff good sir carry on

Michael Edwards said:

Have you swans sing
On water or wing
And if you have heard
This elegant bird
Is it rock, pop, or swing
That you’ve heard this bird sing.

But you\'ll be back tomorrow, surely.
And now, nor a swansong - in an old TV series, my Mum said that my Gran used to say, if anyone got shot or injured etc: \'The b****r will be back next week!\' Ooohh!

I have plenty of thoses, I used to not want to hear now I\'ve learnt to hold on to that tear!

A few little lines made my head explode, now that\'s a captain of a poetic soul!

Thanks for sharing!

It\'s a surprise i\'ve lasted this long. Long enough to admit, I like your style a lot but today you\'ve confused me

Don\'t we all have that same illusion mon ami ? The inevitable occurs and we have to surrender as these few lines impressively prove with solemn yet an ever so slight wry humour. - or maybe that is just me .............. x

L. B. Mek said:

Beautifully worded, almost as simplistic in wording as those child fairy tales you mention,
though even at a mere glance these reads so deep, sadly without context I can only guess, but for some reason, I imagine someone like the late Princess Diana, will relate with your words (may she R.I.P. - that\'s if \'they\' would ever let her, to begin with)...

Those memories are with you Neville and they will be with her as well, she may well feel the same.

Doggerel Dave said:

I\'d rather not comment on how closely I identify with that work of yours - including, but definitely not only, the early lines relating to ageing...
Thanks for for being so succinct there . Any more and this post might have been very different....

Fay Slimm. said:

The passing of things and of those held so dear makes love and togetherness even more needed as this tribute to seeing the truth of comings and goings artfully discloses my friend. Feelings of Déja Vu become clearer when moments of \"pulsing and probing\" are virtually over - - maybe. Another depth here of your avid perception and so impressively well expressed.........x

If she doesn\'t remember then she\'s not worthy - but I bet she does.

dusk arising said:

If she has as much about her, character wise, as you do sir then... daft question.... and from me a ridiculous comment for she, would have to have as much depth as your good self otherwise there would be no \'she\'.

... I don\'t care!! I know what i meant. LOL

Some Words Are Too Heavy
L. B. Mek said:

wonderfully simple but exponentially insightful, I imagine one could return to these words at different landmark\'s of a life and find them equally: an avenue of solace, or a heart wrenching incision - unfurling, those nightmare\'s kept bubbling just beneath the veneer of our clown smiles
