All at sea over this little matelot\'s dream.... another mermaid? no way... with legs like those who wants fishtail soup anyway.

Kismet Hardy?... Or are ya firing broadsides someplace.....

A most stimulating read, Nelsons column could take yer eye out. You shouldn\'t be doing this to the ageing red blooded males in the mornings Neville.

A bit of \'whey hey\' that early in the day?! Swoon! lol. A \'Carry on\' film I think, says: \'I\'m not against slap, but I object to a bit of tickle!\'

You never fail to succeed - you have a style of your own and your choice of subject matter is inspired.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

Angela here - Good afternoon Neville - Thnaks for a verry challenging comment in suppoert of Broken Women ! In my PHYSIO Clinic I get Clients from ORTHPEDIC whose limbs have been literally broken by violent & abusive MEN ! Often they are *Scared of & scarred by MEN* and prefer a Female Physio with lots of TLC. They need a lot of LOVE to help them HEAL Physically & Mentally. Because I am Catholic I wear a Cross and we have a Nun in the Hospital Chaplaincy - who will pray with them !

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian & Smokey 💛💛💛

The fate of some females is frayed just like your tender verse says like ribbon and oft-times from birth they have abuse to crimson the colour of sadness - a truly moving write on a growing section of modern community - thanks for the caring reminder Nev.

A Mermaids Tale
MendedFences27 said:

A tail of fantasy, breaking through the waves, instilling flight ambitions, and disappearing with the return of reality.
Brief and colorful descriptions, just enough to wet the readers appetite,
a bit of sadness at the end \"a sigh on the wind.\" and acceptance of the impossible, \" I just knew I could fly.\" altogether a great tale superbly rendered. Thanks for a brief moment of fantasy. - Phil A.

A Mermaids Tale
dusk arising said:

We all fly in our dreams and see the jewelry of our minds imagination - here the light reflects off the shimmering of mermaid incantation and then.... as if waking.... we are momentarily the bird but..... oh, here is reality again.

An absorbing, enchanting read which took me places which \\i enjoyed very much.... going to re-read now.

Good write of a sea-faring lass Neville.

A Mermaids Tale
Fay Slimm. said:

The essence of mermaid tales are so well enfolded in this colourful read Nev. - - just imagine the magic of flying above the sightings of these legendary sea-maids - - great read.

a fairy tale grounded in the reality of intricate details, wonderfully dreamy - immersive writing.
has that semblance of the child we carry within us, to our very end

Note to self: If I got nothing sensible to say, don\'t say anything at all!
But then - I may not make any comments at all! lol.
How\'s that lass today?

Your words show how special she was in life and still is in your memories, those memories will be forever with you.

Wax Butterflies
MendedFences27 said:

Wax or otherwise, the life of a \"butterfly\" is short, and I read that this was a short relationship, \"appeared to me then to be drowning,\" \"yes this is me and I\'m free,\" but one well remembered, \" I do still miss her.\"
Fond memories arising on occasion, along with a melancholy of \'maybe,\' \'what if?\' A sesual recall that ends on, \"they both disappeared and were gone.\" I especially liked the casual tone of this poem. It brings the images into focus as a casual occurrence, but now remains with a powerful draw. Loved it. - Phil A.

dusk arising said:

A beautiful story told as if through a mist of mystery itself, memories, desire, regret, acceptance, a pleasure passed but not lost. Recounted as only true memories are, a collection of detail and emotion.

Another masterpiece in your style.

L. B. Mek said:

how easy your words flow, tripping us from one stanza to the next, simple lines - morphing to deeply contemplative metaphorical imagery:
\'Much like that wax butterfly

she once took from the window

to protect

and keep out of the sun ..\'
liked the intrigue element as well

Did she run off with me when she disappeared? Probably! lol.

A dream of a read that takes a tale and embellishes its half-remembered meanings to leave readers again in romantic intrigue - who, when and where we have to imagine - what a gift your mind is to poetry Nev......................x

Hi Neville,

A powerful good 👍 write.

Age is in the mind.

My father is 81 he thinks he\'s much younger than that.

Keep him safe and protected during lockdown has been a challenge.

Keep writing ✍ and safe during these challenging times.

MendedFences27 said:

No need for filters, we know how you feel. \"Rejection\" seems to be the call of the day. \"Old\" is a matter of taste, like in \"old\" wine, or sight like in how you see things, or sound as in what you listen to, or touch, like in \"That feels good!.\" So, keep your dignity and pride, muddle through, and perhaps another bit of fluff, will blow your way. You\'re always as young as you want to be. - Phil A.

I believe I will be here for as long as needed, every now and then I day good bye in my head! For in the blink of an eye, you\'ll be fucking dead!

No regrets, if do it all again. Maybe just learn my this less quicker!

I\'m glad I (sort of) met ya!

See you on the next ride ;)

Theory of Endurance
MendedFences27 said:

Life is but a series of changes. Nothing is permanent, including time.
To be used as a measure, time must remain constant, which it does not, in space. But that\'s neither here nor there and irrelevant to your poem.
In your poem it is the comparison that is paramount, one thing against another. No \"maybe\"s about it. and it left me to wonder what is being measured against what? I found the answer,I think, in the title, Theory of Endurance. How long will this relationship last? \"Time and Purpose\" become the governing things to be considered.. A thought provoker to say the least, and thoroughly enjoyable. - Phil A.

Theory of Endurance
Fay Slimm. said:

Time is form and form as this piece of wisdom states is temporary in nature - but the formless as found in love and peace is part of the permanent - -- as I believe............x
