Hark thee Lover
Fay Slimm. said:

These words of love\'s changing face are charged with such imagery that readers will not only \"harken\" but have hearts tugged with its appeal. So good to have you back posting again Neville and a very warm welcome.

Hark thee Lover
dusk arising said:

This is quite quite beautiful Neville. Sight of such wonderful things as the starling mumuration brings to mind how easily we take for granted the gift of sight, our most dominant of senses.
I wish you well in this trying time.
It is good to see your words here again..... particularly when so excellent as this piece.

Into my favourites.

War is Not for Lovers
Seek said:

Love is anathema to pain, sadness and grief, if I read your poem well. Even if my take is a little off, it was a sumptuous read.

like your words, life is WIP - very few reach absolute contentment, wouldn\'t that be blissful!

Not to steer away from your poem

Your pen Nev identifies results so well in these few lines with this telling account of the power Sameness can yield in a shaky relationship .

Fay Slimm. said:

Two harbours could never be more achingly remembered than in this romantically tender ode - - the tale of promises made then broken wrings with regret in that final line Nev........ a heart-wrench of a read.

Very emotive write Neville, those that died were all loved by somebody.

dusk arising said:

Brilliant evocative writing. Hard hitting reality. Each of the thousands who died was a loving soul of hopes, wishes, and desires..... destined to become a number history records.

Very moving.

War is for lovers, otherwise how else would one pen such poetry

War is Not for Lovers
Poetic Dan said:

War is not for lovers, although lovers do fight best

As the fire that burns within our chest, would only take arms to defend the nest

I\'ve never forgotten the first time I heard the lines, the first casualty of war, is the truth!

Beautifully written of the wars that we are still yet to learn from.

Much peace and respect

The appropriate picture your emotive pen paints wrings tears from my eyes - - war most certainly is not for lovers my friend........... Fay

Take Me Somewhere
Goldfinch60 said:

She obviously wants you all the time and anywhere. (It is uncomfortable on the stairs though).

She\'s a saucy lass - or mare! heehee. I\'m gonna dash to meet her! lol.

Take Me Somewhere
Fay Slimm. said:

A request by a smitten She which put so plainly cannot, in any event, be denied by a He ....... surely a lesson not to miss is to make oneself clear in all matters of hanky-panky methinks !

Suresh said:

It\'s so sad that something pure can be used for impure causes, like female abandonment - the most vile reason of all, that your words have so significantly highlighted

Four Letter Words
Goldfinch60 said:

So many words are used in this day and age that are totally meaningless in many situations. That fecundity should be spread to all so that the correct meaningful words are used in the right situation.

Four Letter Words
kevin browne said:

I always thought love and hate are oppsed to each other. However, you have given me a new perspective outlook on four lettered words. There are enough and sit well deep within us all wheter its either both or either of each one in a sentence. An intriuging speculation to be gazed upon more clearly within our language and mouths..

Four Letter Words
dusk arising said:

Having proved my fecundity i no longer have much use for the word unless it is hoping my grandkids are fecund when the time comes.
Hate is a word i rarely use but love on the other hand i use freely and often. There are many kinds of love. Generally we learn of romantic love firstly probably because of it\'s strength. But as we age we become aware of many other forms of love.
Maybe i use the word too often, but i\'m content to continue doing as I do.

Amusing, disturbing and for me controversial.
