I felt the poem convyed an universal paradoxical desire. We like to be chosen but being chosen could only happen if the person choosing was free. Once a relationship establishes the choice goes away. So setting someone free could start the cycle again. Right interpretation or wrong, I loved the poem!

Wonderful poem, my dear friend! Seriously, nothing can ever prepare you for parenthood, winter...or life, really. Poetically expressed with an artists touch! Well done, friend! 🌹👏

Had my children early and that had its problems too. Too early or late in the season is not good for survival but they don\'t teach parenting in school and even if they did no one would pay attention. Maybe I missed that class. As for winter I\'m prepared but the snow\'s coming late this year. Loved the poem Neville

Good write N. Witty fido says \'To fail to prepare is to prepare to fail\'. Banjamin Franklin - though some sources say he didn\'t say it originally. In which case, probably Fido said it originally, he that fount of wisdom, knowing 99% of all there is to know, having an anthology of 5 million proverbs, witty sayings, etc!
Fido I mean, not me. lol.
Also \'To beat an egg is to have an egg beaten\'. (Eh? lol).

Perhaps I am being a simpleton, I felt the poem to be an eloquent portrayal of unexpected turn of events and how they catch us off guard, no matter how much we believe we are well prepared. Loved it

Love this. He enlightens and advises all to reassess what used to mean or what before solved or what to depend on.

Very well written, she took his heart and soul and used them both as a beacon and a guiding light to shine forth, truly lost she was so perfectly transformed

Just enough twist and turns in this folded drawer to give this poem, the interest of looking for that lost piece. Most lovely with great word choice.

I know all about dementia Neville, my wife had it and died from it. If people have not lived 24/7 with somebody who has dementia they haven\'t a clue about how awful it is.

Sensitive and compelling. Perhaps many of us have experienced the confusion and frustration at seeing someone we knew throughout our lives disappearing slowly but inevitably.

Strategically Lost
Cheeky Missy said:
Keep me hogtied thus with sheer intrigue as your note in conclusion begs off further and I\'ve tried to be good, to fail miserably. Whatever the import, tis expertly rendered with such delicious imagery and that exquisitely haunting poignancy which only winks mischievously at me.
