All the moments of our youth should be treasured. They are why we are where we are today. Experience comes from mistakes as well as pleasurable moments.
I don\'t know who sculpted those statues, but would they be there today, if whoever did, had rushed headlong into man/womanhood too soon?
Another thought-provoking poem. Very pensive. A picture of path choice. We wend along making decisions galore and end up where we are. Would we change anything? If we did, would we end up the same? Maybe not.

Carpe diem, those that hesitate are lost. Some opportunities come only once in a life time. So well said

Hesitations in hindsight are brought on by naivety, and the number of moments lost are a testament and measure of my naive youth!

Early days, Neville, early days. Them statues certainly had something to say perhaps not quite then...
\'Hesitations\' at that time, has a certain resonance for me.......

Wow. This is sadness coming at you from different directions. If it helps, you have my respect for what you have endured.

MendedFences27 said:
Well, I\'m now much more informed today than yesterday, when I didn\'t know what a medlar and bletting were. Research left me wondering what they would taste like. I read of everything from applesauce to caramel. I asked my wife if she\'d ever heard of them and she said, \"No,\" I explained to her about bletting, and she threatened to hang me from a tree and let me slowly weep. Doesn\'t sound too promising for any medlar jams or jellies. So, thank you for the exposure to medlars, I am now a wiser man. - Phil A.

Doggerel Dave said:
Medlar, is a large shrub or small tree in the rose family Rosaceae; Blet, ‘a state of softness or decay in certain fruits, such as the medlar, brought about by overripening’. (getting there…) Fell down at Coptic jar, as I ain’t going to break into any glass case in some museum…..

There is an unexplicable element about this poem that feels like it has been hanging on that tree ripening and it weeps droping metaphoric tears. This water gives life to the poem. The water that is at first murky becomes clearer with time. Sweets for the children. Loved this poem Neville wished I had thought ot it.
