Forsaken
Fay Slimm. said:

Those who feel forsaken would be prey to sad memories and to despair - - you verse it so well here Nev with words like \"overstrung\" - -- a deep and dark read that gets under the skin.................. x

Streuth Neville this is a dark picture but oh my so beautifully painted/penned.

Though i don\'t imply that you are a \'dark\' minded personality, this is you at your best mate.

The only certainty in life is death but each day we live must be enjoyed no matter what fate is in store for us.
Good write Neville.

Sylvia\'s Mother Said
Fay Slimm. said:

A talented life ending the way that it did for Sylvia is such a sad and tragic happening.......... you pen the scene so realistically by delivering Mother\'s usual worry I was almost in that fateful room and was with every word to the finish. Brilliant writing again dear Neville.

Sylvia\'s Mother Said
dusk arising said:

Something for us all waits at the end of the earthly existence we call life. A faith in the hereafter almost negates a good or bad way to pass though we all wish it painless.

A very sad tale from you today. Your poetic patchwork of a life\'s snippets encourages me to thunk it relates to your own experience. It is certainly deep in that i feel drawn in and thoughtful. I cautiously look forward to a response to my words here.

An impressive title which drew me into its powerful body - versed with lots of stings this outcry for listening ears and a warning to read over again Nev - so into my favourite list.

Warming (in title bar) or warning (title in text)? A fine write Neville.

Some Words Are Too Heavy
MendedFences27 said:

It appears to me that \"Cumbersome\" is both heavy\" and \"long\" and capitalized to boot. With it so, the mix of your words becomes more profound. \"To weave\" it through this love song would be a \"heavy\" task.So your proposal becomes self-fulfilling.
One suggestion - For rhythm\'s sake consider dropping the word \"single.\" No \'Love song\" should ever have the word \"single\" in it. - Phil A.

Saxon Crow said:

Nicely put Nev. I agree! A love song should be simple and straight forward not undulating with the deepest passions of the inferno of love one feels blah blah blah

I know - them pesky \'evermore\'\'s\' are too long. have to shorten them to \'e\'ermore\'! lol. Such are poet\'s problems.

Some Words Are Too Heavy
Fay Slimm. said:

Yes getting a love song just right is the problem - but poets seem to have the knack as this short but sweet verse relates - maybe tis better when words feel too heavy to scribe TWO OR EVEN MORE love songs to your chosen lady Nev..
An impressive bit of poetic weaving.

Ha! You\'re a poet and dontcha just know it. Words are our tools which we contrive to shape our theme. Honing from the clumsy line into the oft sublime.

Without a traditional gravestone or plaque it is fitting to have words which mark an occasion such as you describe. Nobody can instill more feeling or meaning into the chosen words than those who feel the loss most.
Here i read such words which contain ample depth of meaning for this occasion.
Short and powerful.
