I am amazed how you can conjure up a multitude of feelings and images with only three lines! Kudos!

Post mastication he devoured her essence feeling the cotton wool thrust of butterfly wings in his solar plexus.

There is something sexier, than any posed or contrived image of woman, which happens when, post-coital, she is wearing only her lovers shirt.

An over-large shirt can make all the difference to female adroitness - hence the selfie-need eh ? -- such a tease the way your three liner leads to more curiosity about the whole scene - - great stuff agen Nev...............x

a beautiful dedication,
as always so subtle in tone, just a gentle nudge within words, to tip us readers into that realm of contemplation and contentedness, for those few cherished elements - that mean everything in our lives..
a great write my friend, like a deep inhale of poetic satisfaction, distilled - into just two stanzas

Wether it be cold days or nights
Wether, just a feeling in the heart
When loneliness takes a sip of life
Dreams, daydreams keeps us warm

Such as your words

Kensho brings wherever it will take. For to see that which is before us requires our past.

Sadness fills the mind when scenes you had to leave behind burst from these winsome lines dear friend. Surely a sad read to read again.

Couldn\'t leave her essence alone?
A clear picture in very few words, Neville.

Remembered
Fay Slimm. said:

On re-reading this bit of lovely nostalgia I found much more depth to the last stanza - a true love affair does indeed go on and on into infinity -- thank you Nev for a needed reminder..............x

On finding Truth
L. B. Mek said:

so you too, my friend...
a falsetto serenade
for wannabe scribblers
penned - as ever
so subtly poignant

Dove said:

Oh the mind is a fragile instrument
The here and now is what matters
The past made us, we must not lament
leave the past in its tatters
Let go of the monsters that the eyes invent

L. B. Mek said:

what a morose reality
you depict so acutely, you empathetically gifted Poet...
oh how - we belittle
each other\'s self-worth, just
to keep ourselves afloat...
I like to interpret, when Keat\'s wrote
\"Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.\"
he was referring, to the simple fact
that only \'born-of\' Truth can Beauty ever meaningfully exist
with tangible worth
all else: it\'s but, our glorified
obsession with possession
of all things we deem
aesthetically pleasing, however
momentarily our \'interest\' - lingers
after consumption...

a daringly brilliant write my friend! forgive me if I have imprinted my own blinkered impression as to the meaning behind your words, its just my overzealous nature \'acting-up\', lol

Methinks a Miss as explained here will ever Take as long as hunger for praise is craved. Much food for thought in this needed write Nev.

Doggerel Dave said:

The ephemeral nature of culturally imposed standards of ‘beauty’ clearly portrayed as the load of shit it is.
Thanks Neville

Beauty is so mistaken just by looking at people, to see their real beauty you must look deeply into their eyes.

Dove said:

But when the sun kissed her eyelashes,
and she smiled so sweetly
Somewhere beneath her lips
Her body felt loved

dusk arising said:

Beauty is only skin deep eh? As a youngster I used to wish I was better looking so that I could enjoy the attention of the really beautiful girls who\'s presence teased my libido. With a few years beneath my belt came the realisation that i was better off not getting involved with their vicious ego\'s.
It must be very painful for them when realisation dawns upon them and all their values along with lovers fade into insignificance as you well describe here.

She was a tragedy. Good read Neville.

orchidee said:

Aww, I will meet her, and treat her nicely.....not the penultimate stanza. Woof! No, says Fido.
But how will I ever have any nice slap and tickle, with Fido always in tow? He won\'t stay in the doghouse, to give me a break! lol.

As my thoughts are forming, the future blends into present, and now it\'s all in the past, and all it took was indivisible fractions of time.

Indubitably so!!!!!!
