Well If you keep looking over your shoulder for them dicky birds they for some unaccountable reason are twittering on about just above me, and end up with a sore neck, it\'s no wonder them chiropractors make a lot of dosh, dull jewelled............... don\'t look at me - you recommended Google....

never seen one, although
I doubt I would recognise it
but, on a somewhat similar note
they say, fritillary butterflies were spotted
in Kent this year
and while all butterfly numbers continue to decline
its warming to think
theirs a chance of a tepid re-emergence, of sorts
personally, I have seen so many this year
nature\'s fluttering: comforter\'s supreme
(in my humble \'city boi\' opinion\' lol

Beautiful sheen on the bird I have never seen Nev - they can be spotted on southern coasts but I have not been lucky - as you certainly were to see Wrynecks three days running - a bit envious so I be.............x

Did you get it together again or not, Nev?
Great flow with some depth - I\'m not quite sure just how it was resolved with all that baggage.....

Am listening hard after reading this bit of familiar intrigue and thinking I can hear - maybe - - that romantic mandolin - I love this legacy of a remembered yesterday Nev - - now left for readers to unfold their own ending.......... x

I Do so Hope There are Saxophones in Heaven
dusk arising said:

Blimey, If they aint got saxes in heaven I\'ve got 5 of the damned things u can borrow mate.

Which reminds me, I havent had a good honk on any one of them lately.

Maybe, if they let me into heaven (hmmmm) i could try to become the virtuoso i always dreamed of.

I Do so Hope There are Saxophones in Heaven
L. B. Mek said:

(\'Kebero\' drums, to herald our fluster of last blinks
trumpets and flutes, as our swansong of last breadth
and saxophones: to play midnight Blues
as we traverse, that matter of nothingness existence
in that universe of endlessness...)
a wonderfully melancholic write, my friend
(got me in the mood for some Coltrane\'s Sound
Equinox if you will, c-sharp of modal Jazz
enticing free, that inner serenity)

A fine write N.
I was only reading recently: \'Store up treasure in heaven, not on earth, where rust corrupts and moths devour\'. So you will only have lost earthly treasures.
You opened that wallet? Them moths flew out of it?!

Had to look up whom you were referring to, but I must say the poem was splendid. I really enjoyed the read. Thank you.

Called to War
L. B. Mek said:

my words are too feeble, to honour your write
with empty commentary, so if you\'ll permit me
I\'ll borrow, words of a true battle hardened Genius, survivor
of war\'s, all-consuming Horror:
\'Dim through the misty panes and thick green light,
As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.
In all my dreams before my helpless sight
He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.

If in some smothering dreams, you too could pace
Behind the wagon that we flung him in,
And watch the white eyes writhing in his face,
His hanging face, like a devil\'s sick of sin,\'

\'show me the wonder you found hidden in poetry
Then teach me to live, to love and not hate …\'
Amen!

Called to War
Fay Slimm. said:

Wars have ever made skies weep large tears - - these few lines of poetic power tell well some of the troubles about being drafted to \"someone else\'s war\" and results of objecting......... \"shame on them all\" for wars in the first place my friend.
