It\'s said grey/white hairs are a sign of wisdom. KP has none of course. lol.
In our old ages, I will go \'silver\' and she will melt from botox.

MendedFences27 said:

I\'m feeling philosophical this morning and can\'t help but say (there will be opinions expressed on this) that love always comes with a price. Sometimes it\'s painful, sometimes bittersweet, and sometimes happiness, but always a price. The pain of separation, the bittersweetness of a temporary state of bliss followed by a breakup, or the happiness where he gives his love and she does likewise, a trade if you will, but nevertheless, a price.
OK, so I guess your poem struck a chord with me. Maybe we all seek the same thing. Well, needless to say I enjoyed your poem. - Phil A.

\"For the love I gave away freely\" YES!! I want to be remembered by the love we shared, and the way we made each other feel (hopefully incredible)!! 💜

‘ faulty umbrella ‘ makes me think maybe she hasn’t enough protection around her .. and that perhaps it ‘ rains on her too much.. she sounds a bit like a sad pained person maybe .. who isn’t in the sun enough lol

Great poem interesting words .. 🙂

Words flow while you seem all focused on your daughter with empathy all the way-no way to know exactly how she’ll feel from each moment of this miraculous challenge, but it seems like you are mastering the art of fatherhood…

What empathy you behold truly, being a new mum is the most crazy experience a women can ever have, I\'ve done it so I can safely say this, emotions and hormones. I know she is your beloved daughter but you got inside her mind and a few million other women too. You always amaze me But this is out of extraordinary dear Nev. Kudos on so many levels. Sending big hugs and loads of love to you all from Italy 💖

Brilliant!
you\'ve perfected your flow and timing
in your trademark poetic, conversational style
it all reads so effortless
even on a first read, it feels like something I\'ve practised before

\'feel, taste,
smell and see
you smiling ..
Full on, that is\'
(reading your pearls of poetic wisdom
my cherished friend
is like having a conversation
with someone who has known us a long time
you imbue so much relatable accessibility
and versions of a past, we somehow recognise,
allowing us to delve deep in your ink and excavate
our very own private answers
to questions, we would otherwise
would still be happy to keep repressed
pretending, we didn\'t know they were there...)
thank you!

Tongue Spillage
L. B. Mek said:

so true dear Poet supreme!
\'toxicity\' is a most subtle
yet debilitating, ingredient of love...
(certain relationships seem to be vacuum sealed
in their own cyclical despair
too invested for either party to walk away
yet, within a week of that now
well practised make-up routine
both are playing that cagey assassin game
waiting to see, which lie
will stab deeper
and which betrayal, will eventually
deal that final blow
till then, they\'re left restlessly squirming
fidgeting, trying to gage the threat
of every kiss and embrace...)

The girl may have forgotten you but the elephant sure as hell hasn\'t.
A most intriguing poem. A memory from the past relived and now memorialized forever. Life\'s crossroads cause the most colorful meetings. This is a classic, - Phil A.

My wife had an uncle who ran away in his mid-teens and joined the circus back in the 1930\'s. He was apparently a clown and a roadie. If I recall, you\'ve had an eye issue that affects colors? Well, maybe that clown career is off the table, but you are now MPS\'s court jester so there\'s that!

Love is such a tangled web, that if we had the power to lay straight, every strand, would we? It\'s the unpredictibility that keeps us on our toes, as does the weather. Beautifully crafted and a joy to read dear Nev. Wishing you fair skies!

Loved the circus...and the fantasies I had about the lady on the flying trapeze... until the sawdust got the better of my asthma.
Never mind - the evocation was all...

Good write Gold.
KP was an elephant-rider in a circus. One day she fell off. The elephant stepped on her, but its foot bounced off her, as she is full of botox! lol.
Don\'t ya just love it when she\'s taken down a peg or two.
