Neville,

‘yet quietly…’

I breathed a sigh of relief
when he fell off the face of the earth.

I enjoyed this short write.

Beautiful, Neville.
Totally relatable. I can fall in love in a crosswalk or across an ocean and yes I do it \"quietly.\"

these words, I find - acutely depict
our fear-warped interpretation of innocent romance
when our blinkered perceptions, could only see
this one and only - dramatic, opportunity in life
to attain, that love we recognise
but can\'t quite - distinguish, its likeness
to our youthful naïvetés: overt fascination
in our shameless - lust-addled, puberty mind\'s
lost, in those blissful years of \'curvature idolisation...\'

\'of those illusive gifts, in our lives
you subtly pen, my wise friend;
where, we seldom take the \'brief\' moment
required, to realise: just how much of life
we miss-out - on, while waiting
for that unattainable, Hollywood
of miraged - something, anything
deemed important, by other\'s
simply, because they refuse to admit
the resplendent majesty of existence
we experience, in our everyday lives...!\'
another brilliant shorty, dear poet
showcasing the epitome of worded, Brevity!

L. B. Mek said:

Amen!
I think so many
who are fighting with their perception of faith
whether it be: in love, in belief - or in life, itself
can so easily, relate to your words;
just another sublime gem you\'ve weaved
from your mind\'s endless pool
of empathetic ink, dear Poet
thank you

To enjoy life but not keep it! If I could see the blessing of my time and not the burden, one can only keep trying!

Until melted or blown away, a pleasure to read your work today.

Be sure to keep them coming ;)

A lovely short read of your version of briefness Nev. Nature often leaves no trace behind of her precocious diversions here on our side of the coast. Winter cold kissing blossom may be brief but how sad to see cherry-drop fall to maverick frost............

I recall the feeling of having been used and wasted... culminating in pointlessness. Your words capture this well.
I remain ever tainted towards \'marriage\'.

Hello Sincerely Banished
Here, in the US, they have mastered this art of science, since the 60’s, and like other exports, have done so with this as well.
Marriage has now become a passing phase, but at least we have your words of solace

Banished
Poetic Dan said:

I read this again to remember that water I once floated in and never ashamed to say I can drift back to it! Yet here I am in a place I thought was impossible to reach and keep but what else in life is there to do.

I\'ve been told recently I should get over life being hard. For the respect I have for her, I could only think I guess so.

Hope wherever this writing came from, it lightens your wonderful soul!

Keep sailing on!

Jerry Reynolds said:

Sincere write, Neville.
Making sense of science…
Phone snippets over heard in line at the bank
all from different people.
“I’m at the bank”
“I think we should take a break”
“Donna wont take her meds”
“Why would he go there if he’s not welcome?”
“I’m not coming back”

Sad but true Nev. Breaking up is indeed now an art. and methinks when banished it must feel like being invisible. Sighs and more after this read ..............x

Doggerel Dave said:

Well so long as the banishment was sincere, Neville.
You can feel the delicacy and care enveloping you in your abandonment, can’t you?

Tiredness can be shown in many ways but those stones have ben standing for millennia and deserve their rest.

When erected they were very alive and majestic, and now even time has laid them down - shattered and battered

Very enjoyable post

Sharp observation. If you don\'t want to be shattered, better to be awake.

A thoughtful three liner Nev. which makes us ask why standing stones have not long since been shifted for housing developers to make new history - - your sens. are fast becoming small gems.........x

those stepped - over, pillar\'s
of all, that we hope to be
allowing us to build, steadily
all, that we strive to achieve..
a great shorty, my friend
(if a write
makes us think, twice
its doing alright!)

Yeh - that\'s proof Stonehenge has been around too long, hasn\'t it, old chap?? All that real estate - look what you could do with it - Mansions, tower blocks a teeny bit of grass, a couple of swings and slide in one corner...the possibilities are endless...
Great word play, Neville.
