Rokhsana
Fay Slimm. said:

What a terrible custom Nev. - and so widely used for eons by many cultures - - - being stoned often meant a very slow death -- merely alleged of a crime yet courageously out-spoken was young Rokhsana - hoping your caring post will rouse readers to ever remember with flagrant empathy that beautiful name.

\'Was a portion of sky with
a small diagonal crease
and a tear ….
Overflowing it was
with a million or more
jigsaw shaped pieces of
delicate blue\'..
well, what can I say
I read and learn, dear poet..
what an awesome gift
you choose to share, my friend
thank you!

Only \'alleged\' and yet stoned - a terrible state.
I can\'t meet her, unfortunately :(

In passing, the life of a butterfly is very short, seasonal to be exact. It seems that most things beautiful in nature are short lived. Sometimes human emotions are sensational only to be quick in passing. Maybe both share the same fragility.
Your remembrance of a fleeting moment, or was it more, and the symbolism of butterflies, and blue in particular, of luck, love, and hope become a very allegorical image and well structured poem. Truly a classical pairing. - Phil A.

More than a tribute to butterfly-beauty in this clever exposure of memory\'s \"forget-me-not\" visions of long-ago love. A corker agen Nev........x

In the ending of all things life rests as fragile as butterfly wings seeking shelter in a rainstorm.

Is it our life or the futility which passes thru ones mind on the point of passing.

\'how sobering
that, what endlessly inspires
is often
the very worst: within us...!\'
(what a poignant write my friend
so many narratives and images
flashed through my mind
trying to decipher wat inspired you;
and ain\'t that the beauty
of this poetry artform, we fight
to keep alive)

Love the coined word in the title Nev. and oh that clever and very telling metaphor - -- - I maybe completely up a gum-tree but judgemental pride comes to mind after reading a second time your bit of intrigue today mon ami.

Journey of Tears 
Dove said:

Oh my some people magically work tears to manipulate
Others, and others though heartfelt turn into works of art
Ultimately fake tears or not, lose their meaning If
lies and tantrums are infused!

Always deeply meaningful words infused in your works

this be those kinda whispered \'messages, in a bottle\'
that had the Helen\'s of this world - abandon
their loyalties: for a heart\'s vehement desires
and wars that launch timeless tales
upon that unconquerable sea, of poetic ink..
A great write my friend, wonderfully executed pacing and flow

No thought for the past, no thought for the future, our energies combined in the glorious present – which will last forever…..And it has – in memory….
Thanks Neville.

Ah, yes. the hurried emotions of youth. Surely, she would remember the wine and the frenzy. A small snip of lost emotions that are recalled with a passion that sweetens the recollection and perhaps, the taste of the wine. Loved it. - Phil A.

With a scene addressed so well I\'m sure she will have quite a coloured memory of it.
Love the way you create with a pastiche of the actual scene.

There’s only one true love
which kisses ones soul
One true heart that flutters
as memories lovingly unfolds
knowing there’s no others
Where affections gently holds

Love it Neville!,

So rich with imagery this write - it cleverly takes events in back- then and romantically stirs such sweet memories - - oh yes Nev. that lady in question having read this would well remember - methinks..........x
