Two Hopes for Thee
orchidee said:
I suppose I could use \'thee\' and \'thou\' more in me hymns! Sometimes to get round non-rhyming words.
And also add \'est\', such as in knowest, takest, etc. Then I gotta count the syllables carefully if I do, as the \'est\' gives an extra syllable.
Do shut up waffling now, Orchi! lol

Light and shade and our perception. Yet you refreshingly bring feminine beauty along to colour the world too.

She was my elixir, my sensation\'s zenith, my addiction, my sacrifice, my downfall, my lesson. She was everything upon my lips.
In your verses are pictures painted in life, evoking from me a flow of emotion ... to try and capture a fragment of a yesterday.

how very clever dear Poet:
*within that \'tone\' you\'ve utilised in a seemingly unassuming first stanza - you\'ve somehow encapsulated that \'youthful element of life\' we all yearn to experience again...
*in that second stanza, versed utilising subtly archaic verbiage you\'ve given us a taste of language\'s once great past - we literary lovers yearn to revisit...
*and in your final few lines you note their passing while reminding us: that they are never truly gone from our lives, for we need only reach back and reminisce - fondly, free of bitter regret, to insure \'their love affair\' with us \'goes on and on and on\'...
Brilliantly witty, another great showcasing of your seemingly depthless talents my friend

Why not beautiful? I guess the mind of a narrator asks no questions, just reflects what is and what happened.
Poor old Steve, if a poet has never starved themselves to be truly hungry, can they ever claim to be a poet? If a poet hasn\'t tried living on fresh air and water I\'d wonder how imaginative they are...
Sadly it is probably true as publishers would bid to sell the sansational find rather than poetic content. A real quirky good \'un Neville.

I was expecting something far more political after reading the title of your post..... print something which will have a negative effect on the wellbeing of society sells newspapers LOL.
Starving in droves Neville.... which person ever became wealthy purely from writing poetry? Songwriters yes, but poets?
Poetic justice... a strange phrase.
I\'m confused about how to react to your post today. I feel that it contains some sadness of the passing of an angel, in the eyes of those who looked upon her, and the dirt on the spades of those who do nothing but dig for dirt to delight a sub editor.
