At the Very End of It All
Cheeky Missy said:
Spoken by whom was wrested from Death\'s grasp not so long ago, your tale far prettier than the ghastly accounts I\'ve been privy to by halves over the decades, your delightful manner of rendering the experience, then subtly and adroitly twisting the whole around to address a hopeful future leaves me dragging my jaw off the ground. La dee. Is it really and truly just as you\'ve related? I wonder, frankly, especially in light of the Scriptures. How beautifully rendered as if exceptionally, with excellent imagery and a deeply haunting poignancy. Thank you so very much for sharing, Sir.

We have one that hasn\'t exited yet but the seething hate that wishes him ill by rights should - if there is a God (which I doubt) - ought to do the trick - it won\'t but it should.......what to do with all the anger ........ and the pain of knowing how many have been and are being hurt..........

Neville, this sits with death not in fear, but with a beautiful kind of reverence. The tone is like a whisper...half letting go, half reaching for meaning. I appreciate how you hold both surrender and hope in the same breath, unflinchingly. Well done, my friend. 🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛ Also, 🍻!

Neville, in my carefully curated and quite short list of possibilities, your carefully crafted proposition is right up there.
Faved so I can find it again.

....it’s not a void but a gentle release from hunger, pain, and desire; but as a radiant arrival shaped by hope and gratitude.
When we share deep faith, its uncertainty softens into a familiar passage we navigate together.

But, but, but... Neville, you know I demand a signed copy, else it\'s not worth it\'s salt. I detest PayPal, but if that\'s how we must go for my demands, I\'ll yield. Thank you very much for this pretty teaser. I\'ve missed you.

the experience seems sorrowful and devastating; but the message learnt will remain for a lifetime, and slowly one learns to accept the inevitable, and cease grieving, and get ready to move forward or retaliate. wishing success in whichever course chosen

One More Open Verdict For the Road
MendedFences27 said:
Wow, this makes me think deeply. There are so many ways people fall, in popularity, in love, in status, or off the wagon. These are mere phrases. People can also fall physically. I\'m reaching, but I think you intend to mean, in or out, of love. Maybe it\'s just me but why write about someone just falling physically. Maybe then, she was not sure, and fell in and out, and in again. As to being \"pushed,\" well, some outside influence perhaps. There that\'s what I read into it. Must say though, I enjoyed the read. - Phil A.

Hey, welcome back. Missed your poetry. Hope this poem wasn\'t why you were absent for so long. My mind thought you were probably working on another book.
Your poem paints a dreadfully scary episode for someone\'s life. It reads as a straightforward depiction of what happened and of his response. As always it is clear and concise.
Once again, welcome back and AGTs. - Phil A.

Neville…my dear poetic friend—it’s so good to see your voice again. I cannot remember if I sent you a PM or not, but I’ve thought of you more than once in your absence, sent quiet prayers your way, and hoped you were well. And then this…raw, redemptive, and pulsing with mercy. That closing vow? Brought tears to my eyes. Welcome back, my friend! You were missed. 🌹👏

Been worried about you, checked other sites and asked around but nothing to be found. So glad that your are back seeing your poem nearly gave me a heart attack. I hope that this poem is not a personal story but whether or not it shines in all its glory. Worried that you might have been in your grave I give this poem a fave

Wow, he\'s damned determined, albeit, I canna guess why on earth the dark continent owns such a sway on him. Adroitly rendered with your capable expertise, tastefully overburdened with excellent imagery, and haunted by a ghastly, intriguing poignancy, thank you very much for sharing! I\'m happy to have you back with us!
