Oh to be lost in a fairytale
where dreams come true
On the wings of a dove
dulce tones of “ I love you “
Lavender scented skies
But alas away she flew

Awesome little nursery rhyme,!
For the young at heart

I needed this to see what\'s right in front of me!
So much more passion in your words, leaves me blissfully thoughtless!

Thank you!

You have so preciously captured the permanence of one laid over the other, as only your words could

Nice view Neville, slightly darkly through a funnily dry lens! I should think about writing a will. Thanks

Such a gentle old-fashioned tribute to sentimentality when politeness wins over unveiled vermeil- skin. Intriguing again my friend - - - - but I like it. immensely..............x

oh you clever Poet:
is this commentary on him perceiving her as his \'second skin\', untameable electric attraction fusing their fantasies into one murky reality,
or is this her perception of self - her worth, as a self-demeaning take on aesthetic beauty while underneath it all she considers herself as mere decorative silver, when she yearns to have been born into the world of all things \'real\' gold...
brilliantly subtle, truly an insightful write pondering intricacies that play out in our moment\'s of vulnerable intimacy,
or I\'m just reading too much into things as usual, lol
a Brilliant write either way!

lol, this is so relatable to us scribblers, what W B Yeats took a page to unravel, you uncoiled within two stanzas my friend,
Brilliant!

Neville, (this is where I get thrown out of MPS for heresy) I find the (very well constructed) poem a bit sus - or rather the interpretations placed upon it by your esteemed correspondents.
I believe it\'s about the \'him\' glowing in self satisfaction at his smoothly (but thin) polished exterior.

Regards, Dave

I not met any gals named Vermeil, I must admit! She sounds like an eloquent lass, as expressed here.
A tapestry clinging... see, I\'m nicking Gold\'s words. The unforgivable sin of plagiarism!

That swansong is within all of us but we still have too much to do to sing it yet.

Looking through the looking glass does funny things, like when it\'s mushroom season! Then Alice finds the reason....

Couldn\'t help myself! Great stuff good sir carry on

Have you swans sing
On water or wing
And if you have heard
This elegant bird
Is it rock, pop, or swing
That you’ve heard this bird sing.

But you\'ll be back tomorrow, surely.
And now, nor a swansong - in an old TV series, my Mum said that my Gran used to say, if anyone got shot or injured etc: \'The b****r will be back next week!\' Ooohh!

I have plenty of thoses, I used to not want to hear now I\'ve learnt to hold on to that tear!

A few little lines made my head explode, now that\'s a captain of a poetic soul!

Thanks for sharing!

It\'s a surprise i\'ve lasted this long. Long enough to admit, I like your style a lot but today you\'ve confused me

Don\'t we all have that same illusion mon ami ? The inevitable occurs and we have to surrender as these few lines impressively prove with solemn yet an ever so slight wry humour. - or maybe that is just me .............. x

Beautifully worded, almost as simplistic in wording as those child fairy tales you mention,
though even at a mere glance these reads so deep, sadly without context I can only guess, but for some reason, I imagine someone like the late Princess Diana, will relate with your words (may she R.I.P. - that\'s if \'they\' would ever let her, to begin with)...

I\'d rather not comment on how closely I identify with that work of yours - including, but definitely not only, the early lines relating to ageing...
Thanks for for being so succinct there . Any more and this post might have been very different....

The passing of things and of those held so dear makes love and togetherness even more needed as this tribute to seeing the truth of comings and goings artfully discloses my friend. Feelings of Déja Vu become clearer when moments of \"pulsing and probing\" are virtually over - - maybe. Another depth here of your avid perception and so impressively well expressed.........x
