Your words made me think of the phrase, the lunatics are running the asylum. The brakes have well and truly gone in our messed up country at the mo. I like both versions of your title, but it’s the JH one I recall most. Written by Dylan. Was it about Vietnam. Lucky you in November. Have a good Wednesday Neville.

Letting Go of The Light
Cassie58 said:
Not a subject we want to dwell on, but one we do think about and talk about on occasions. After 45 years of togetherness, the separation would be excruciating for me, but I know I would cope somehow, because my nans, my mum and my sister all coped. I would be walking in their footsteps. My husband John feels much the same way you do. There is a lot of love and togetherness in your words Neville. A beautiful poem to sum up a long relationship with many memories.

I\'ve often thought of such loss, and you have put into words the very feeling. This poem runs deep in emotion that touches the soul. Beautiful!

Memories of the past, so I won\'t mention him but what of Jimi Hendrix it was a nice cover. As for the prison guards I worked as an intern for a year in a prison in California and the guards had a morticians sense of humor. A fun read Neville loved it.

To guard the ungodly , does it require us to sell our soul. I might give different answers depending on the day but I love the way you succinctly apprised the question and suggested the hidden price. When I grow up I’m gonna tell people I know you.

I\'m assuming this is chronic among poets, I for one have this problem, and I\'ve taken to carrying a pen and a small paper-pad. How many times have I raced home to record a thought before losing it to my 80-year-old brain? You have brilliantly called out this unfortunate calamity. Maybe we can find a universal solution. Looks to me like the younger generation has the answer with technology. Although I hate it when they start talking into their watch and I think they are talking to me. What to do? I vote for pad and pen. At least it is silent. - Phil A

For the want of a pen my friend, too many great thoughts disappearing into the ether. This poem flows so beautifully that, inhaling deeply, I read it aloud all in one breath and it was amazing. I\'m so glad this wonderful poem did not escape you. !!!!!!

Neville loved the format of this poem it seemed a zipper that was closed. Never the less it\'s rhythm rolled out as if the zipper was unfastening. I too wished I had had a pen many times when thoughts drown in that reservoir of the mind. Now that everyone carries a smart phone just hit the mic and record each thought for latter.

Yes, how is it that words come to us and we don\'t have a notepad nearby?
This is so also, for about 500 poems I had in mind for KP, in the genre \'put-downs!\' lol.

I’m not trying to claw pant and puff my way onto high moral or aesthetic ground here, but I do find such terminology as ‘beautiful’ and ‘ugly’ when utilized in a judgmental sense as rather……. irrelevant and somewhat degrading for those on the uncomfortable end of the spectrum.
Stap me vitals, Sir – keep yer uncharitable thoughts in yer head not out, as I do mine…….!

The never ending search for the woman who will satisfy all those dreams. Maybe luck plays a part in it. I certainly don’t think it’s a science:) I found humour here but there again I’m not at all pc. Your final three lines made me laugh. You have probably excluded most of the female availability 😀 Perfection is hard to come across. Have a wonderful Saturday Neville .
