Banished
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

myself and me said:
Sharp observation. If you don\'t want to be shattered, better to be awake.

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.

till now. Thanks

\' just waiting on winter\' - nothing more?
What did you get up to in the meantime?
Image clear in my mind - evokes memories of my own (refuse to disclose); what more can I ask of a short sketch such as yours, Neville?

and so, once more - I find myself, swaying
with that gentle breeze of your poetic genius
subtle, my gifted friend
as ever - ever, so subtle: your nudge
that has us swimming in memories
even our shadow stains, pointedly - chose to forget...
yes I too have, a few names dear Poet
and they too, will have theirs I\'m sure
the true magic in your words, is when we realise
the likeliness, that even in name only
miles and lifetime\'s - apart
there\'s a chance: we\'re all, thinking alike...
(such a Brilliant Gem, of a subtly nuanced Poem!)

\'refused listen to reason and then, to common sense
but later came to realise\'
\'Way Too Late\'..
(why do I feel like, we should have been studying this
as a conceptualised introduction
to our fallible selves, since kindergarten
then maybe, we could have avoided
most - of our brutal: life lessons...?)
there\'s an aspect of grounded wisdom
that makes all your unassumingly - profound
philosophical concepts
appear so accessible and measured;
these three stages, you\'ve worded so relatable
are so universal, and can be applied
to almost every person on earth, and yet
you\'ve just subtly inserted them in the poem
in such an understated manner,
what a gift you choose to share, so generously
dear poet, thank you!

Insightful poem. Like Dusk Arising I had an unplanned goodbye when my dear friend also fell off a cliff. That was the first image that came to mind when I read your poem.

I can totally relate to the intense emotions you have exposed, for I have witnessed first hand the mental trauma they experience, and my abject failure in getting through to them. Though poetic, yet powerful

So how are your feet now Neville? LOL
The maintenance of a good lady\'s esteem requires more than the occasional, out of the blue, turn up. The emphasis here upon the word \'good\'.
