Upon the Morrow
MendedFences27 said:

Though subtle, I find this sad, but with a sense of hope. If that hope is for an afterlife reunion. \"Bunting \" makes me think of a wartime loss . Perhaps they will be together in some spiritual way.
I enjoyed this poem and the way you\'ve subtly described the passing and the sorrow felt by those left behind. Very descriptive and yet not ponderous. I liked it.- Phil A.

I told him to stay about 93 million miles away from that sun (distance Earth to Sun) but he never listened! lol.

Falling for Icarus
Fay Slimm. said:

Flying too near the sun whatever the reason results in melt-down where love drowns -- a comforting last line shows someone has reached out with understanding. This write touches the heart Nev.

Like the racing driver who swerved to avoid a child and fell out of bed i sense someone flying too close to a son here.

It can be such a sad word when more should be said and done.

The Sorriest of Words
MendedFences27 said:

\"Sorry\" is just another word, but so are \"sincere\" and \"disingenuous.\" Sometimes your \"sorriest of words\" falls off lips like a lead balloon, and less frequently it delivers at least some solace. It\'s when nothing is said that causes the greatest concern.
A self-written poem with the weight of empathy clinging to its intent. Perhaps your words will cause many to pause and consider.
Well done, Neville - Phil A.

\'E\'ermore\' is another sorry word - well, a \'sad\' word in the sense of boring! lol.

Poetic Dan said:

Bam and ain\'t that the truth when we forget that action speak louder that words! Our Internet feels like a burden of a curse, when they can\'t cope force remains the first...

Great work my friend!

Much peace and respect

Times like you so aptly describe are etched in the heart and mind where sorry seems so inadequate. A haunt of a read...............x

Let it be indeed, that chapter in your life is over and the new one will be wonderful.
Good Senryu.

Remote
dusk arising said:

Life is so awkward and those television controls so distant and clumsy when you lose the remote.

I agree with the light hearted attitude though. For both ebay and amazon offer a calmer tomorrow.

A sensible way to end a fading affair - - letting it be and enjoying the memories is the better conclusion - a well honed three liner mi amigo.

Just Another Murmeration
Goldfinch60 said:

Those murmerations can be so swift that sometimes you have to wonder if your flying in your love but they suddenly disappear as you fall to the ground - spent for the day.

Just Another Murmeration
dusk arising said:

I wasn\'t sure what to make of your piece today so i decided i would regard it as an overtly sexual romance with the english ...erm languish.
Those feet never touching the ground, the flurry of ups and downs ... i\'m beginning to feel a little feint now as i reminisce .... ha! no smiles.... it\'s definitely marriage ooopss i mean love...

Fantasy takes to the wing and a wonderful pattern emerges and is GONE!

Just Another Murmeration
Fay Slimm. said:

Flying high and surrounded with feelings of love must be a kind of murmeration and couched in your words is very inviting my dear friend.

It\'s all right for some folk, having murmerations! I\'m looking for the Lesser-Spotted E\'ermore. I wish I would shut up! lol.

Nob Hill Hotel Ca
dusk arising said:

Memories of standing room only on a street car named disgusting. Drawn alongside chauffer driven Mrs Drippen-Gold. It must be sunday, the conductors gum languishes by the bell push.

Atmospheric stuff revealing your pampered past luxury hotel living? Or a stark contrast to reality?

Book me a ticket on the first plane then - Nob Hill eh ? - ah - this I must see............ I love the disguised wit in these few lines Nev.

Well, technically it\'s still Spring, or maybe for some unknown reason they had to change locales.
You paint a vivid picture here, and the metaphor of scarring works well. And for sure it can disorient the observer, but please I hope you forecast is incorrect. Seeing them when their wings flap in unison can be inspiring. This piece of poetry is for sure a Fav. - Phil A.

Yes coming or going has often foxed me -- but just to recall that murmur of perfect formation is enough to light up the strings of my heart..... have just posted a heart-warming oldie - just cos I felt like it this sunny Sunday. Keep staying safe my friend.

Ooooh I too love to stand and watch this special performance - -Introspective and intriguing these migratory lines describing the perfect formation of skeining birds and the \"scar\" left in their wake.
A mystery we shall never unravel is the sight of such co-ordination in the wild........ glad I caught this piece of keen observation Nev and thank you for reminding us readers to look forward for more of such awesome signatures in our skies.
