Aww, I will think of ya. I never knew ya was going anywhere. Where was ya gonna go? To the Co-op?! A tad expensive there, I find.

A Hard Lesson Learned
Doggerel Dave said:
Nah - the preceding apostrophe meant to substitute For \'You\'re\' - an attempt to not be too formal.
Is it \'back\'? OK - the curse of short term memory loss.....Anyway no remission there - YOUR welcome was in turn very welcome also.
Squared away now?

\'Welcome - though you didn\'t really need a contribution from an intruder like me; you\'ve obviously got your own fan base.

Copious use of stops....I\'d endorse that - it\'s something I use frequently although as a suffix mostly.
From the School of Hard Knocks you should gain admission to the University of Life from which, if you work it right, you never graduate - remain a perpetual student.

Michael Edwards said:
A wise couplet - and it makes me ponder the difference between learned and learnt - I should know but now about to google it.
An edit to add that they are the same except learned is more common across the pond whilst the UK tends towards learnt - so, being a patriot, I shall use learnt from now on.

I fell from a tree
where i had no place to be
The school of hard knocks has awarded me several diplomas. Rumour has it that i am approaching a lifetime achievement award.
Neville, today you give us two lines of such profound wisdom where many others may write twenty and miss the target by a mile.
Quality shines.

Words \"lost on the wind,\" and yet \"come back to haunt,\" and inspire, but we know that the here and now is the only reality, yet we can dream can\'t we. How much of our reverie is filled with such moments? She may have \"drifted\" but the memory lingers. Too much time has passed for it to be anything more than a whimsical thought and a lovely poem. - Phil A.

intriguing concept and stylistically creative in execution,
pondering those what-if\'s we\'ve all yearned to answer at one point or another,
an innovative meditation, on a timeless topic

Our paths of life can compare with the paths of nature and that is why I compare my golden moments with the wonder of Autumn, the most golden time of the year.

MendedFences27 said:
Trees, begin to blossom in Springtime, flourish in Summer, shed their adornments in Autumn, and bear the weight of snow in Winter. A life lived \"between trees\" can follow this same path of development.
Your poem reads like a fallen leaf, something shed to prepare for the colder season. There is a lot of symbolism in trees and leaves, and now, in the pathways beneath them. I sensed a lot of emotion in this poem. as though of a life changing. Life\'s \" Point A and B\" which we all follow often is strewn with too many \"leaves.\" - Phil A

Awe, but alas they were promising words, hopefully
Truthful at the time spoken! Fate lies in the moment
Time challenges all our dear goodbyes,
Nice write my friend

The golden years. For some there may just golden days but gold is gold and never loses it\'s value as a treasure.
To look back on such wealth..... sigh!

Ah --- \"I will come back\" How compelling the sounds of those words from a lover - this emotive read smacks of long lonely waiting but with a lifting last line - hope can open doors long thought closed.

dusk arising said:
Somethings are said and linger. They tease hope when time should have erased it. Encourage the romance of daydreams until her indoors shouts at us in indignation.
Then along comes flippin schwarzenegger with his \"I\'ll be back\" and makes a nonsense of our romancing.
Lovely atmospheric romantic poem Neville. I wonder what/who she\'s doing now.

Unity of Opposites
dusk arising said:
Opposites are often closer than is apparent in the sphere of human affairs. Yet the ego strives to differ and succeed.
A tranquil peace comes with the compromise you suggest. So long as the genie (ego) is kept in the bottle.
