The Repatriation of Shards
Doggerel Dave said:

Your words evoke memories of English cathedrals which I love. One of my many inconsistencies would be that I have not a sliver of religiosity in me….
Thanks for the prompted recollection of visits past, Neville.

The Repatriation of Shards
MendedFences27 said:

Once bright and shining as part of a stained-glass window high on the walls of a cathedral, now dark and graying, fallen and broken \"shards.\" Sorry, but it happens and there is no going back. There are only memories of what was, which is all well and good, but it\'s better to keep on making new memories, together.
Lots of imagery here with \"mullioned windows,\" \"ancient book written in tongues,\" and \"magnificent mosques, temples, and cathedrals.\" It all adds up to aging. I find it best to keep looking ahead.
LOL....This poem, to me, harkens to olden times to portray a life on the far side of the hill. Or, as the old saying goes, \"Not to worry, you can still chase women.... Downhill.

Ahh the remnants of past glory now covered in dust, to be what we once were and be remembered, the aim of us all

A mystical connection bridged by what we know and what was known however relegated to reliquaries, somewhere in forgetfulness clues sparkle under our very noses!

Ok , so I imagine there is a visual of orange triangular shrinking fading luminous segment but you’re sneaky so I believe the togethered cuddle with smiling minds drifting toward comfortable and warm is both of you are still engaged with the energy of recent intimacy and wantonly enjoying every joule of its after glow.

Evidently here in Australia (a part of the world you omitted to mention, Neville) there is a fashion colloquially known as ‘going commando’. Don’t ask – I’ve got me own arrangements – don’t ask…..
According to their website yer can order online – save you all the bother of going to Le Grand Buffet in Narbwhatever……..

The Catch in A Love Song .. & Upon Turning the Other Cheek
Cheeky Missy said:

[We will definitely miss you, Sir; please don\'t be absent for long.] Fascinating with so much to contemplate, as well as what aka Soren already excellently noted, the second seeming clearly an echo of that incident in the gospels, methinks I\'m insufficiently awake yet to comment properly. Beautifully rendered with a haunting poignancy only heightened by the allusion and excellent imagery. Thank you for sharing.

The Catch in A Love Song .. & Upon Turning the Other Cheek
sorenbarrett said:

Two for one what a bargain. The first hit me as so typical of relationships all woven in time with crossings and falling back, loopes leaving us back at cross roads and renewals. It is its ending line that shows you to be a poet at heart. The second so full of references to Christ and Mary and the relation of it to a present relationship where pain is not in what one does to the other but in the potential loss of the other. Once again the last line is the clincher. Nice Neville will miss your poems hurry back

Back in the day the pub I went was like that Neville, no music, no games tables, just good beer and good friends, darts and cards.

Wharfedale speakers take me back.

The blues of a rainy day accompanied by blues is my choice. Drinking can be raucous but I still prefer the more personal and not the franchise but the privately owned more homesy places. Nicely written Neville

MendedFences27 said:

Reminds me of pub\'s years ago whose only purpose was for drinking. Now a days, they\'re more restaurant-like. It\'s good you found one like that.
I think you described it beautifully, crowded, noisy, and purposeful. - Phil A.

Good Evening Nev

I feel like a trip to the pub for a drink with some chilled music after this one and it\'s been a while.

Never disappoint, enjoyed very much Nev
