Very good and thoughtful poem. Yes, we have that issue in the old US of A but now they are letting children decide what they want to be and not letting parents know....a topic that is hot right now. I also am not bigoted, have a lot of gay and bi friends and family but children is a whole nother issue...x

The poem\'s themes of hidden beauty and the complexity of human nature are conveyed through a conversational tone that creates an intimate connection between the poet and the reader.

Good write Neville.

Ah, be careful what you wish for. I can only assume that his heart\'s desire fulfilled, he died a happy man. Sad, but beautifully told dear friend.

Fay Slimm. said:

A hunger for romantic antics to catch beauty unclothed can lead to a finalé so tragic I almost wept and at the same time started to laugh at your ever fertile imagination so expertly scribed mon ami and as ever I loved every line ...........x

orchidee said:

Yes, it happened to me - I did this, and fell in the river! Doh!
Not that I was spying on KP. That would be too ghastly.
I read of a couple who wanted a foursome with Ken Barlow and Lulu. I would never recover if I saw any videos of it!

aah yes, how the fires within a man roar to life. Keep the fire extinguisher handy when writing scribblings such as this my friend. 😉

Woodland Rendezvous
Fay Slimm. said:

That moment of surrender to bewitchment where a ghostly woman appears to show naked temptation is methinks penned here with the need of a sequel dear Nev - - when lips are sipping from elf cups was he of the rendezvous only dreaming - - tell please did that magical scene end with him lusting for a grown woodland fairy or no - --- great stuff ........... x

\'bathed, in a hollow
of sunly warmed dew ..\'
(this
that intoxication of worded eloquence
poetic elegance, imbued
in eroticism\'s, evergreen decadence)
mesmeric sensuality
in such a relatively short read
really well executed
I read and learn, Hyung

Upon Wanting to Die
L. B. Mek said:

(the amount of times
the writes we choose to share, feels in-sync
amazes me, Hyung
must be something in those grey clouds
we ponder beneath)
what is it about ending\'s, that intrigues
our imagination\'s muse, time n again
we ponder and boldly fantasize
yet
to glimpse our panicked faces, when merely
slipping, upon fate\'s banana skins
it makes one realise
that distance of theory, in aftermath
of our inevitable finite
is what really, entices us
running to escape
unwilling to comprehend, the weight
of our looming goodbyes:
\'I would surely
miss you, oh’ so very dearly ..
No doubt for the
eternity you think it offers ..\'
(your empathetic artistry
at its irresistible, subtle best)

Upon Wanting to Die
Bella Shepard said:

Such a difficult write dear friend, it is hard to understand a state of mind where life is so intolerable that death seems the answer to a prayer. The healthy brain cannot conceive of such a thing, and yet it does strike the vulnerable. You write so beautifully of the other, who will hold onto that person with compassion and understanding, until the dark cloud passes. Very powerful dear Nev!

Its message of hope and love is a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there is always someone who cares and is willing to help.

Upon Wanting to Die
Fay Slimm. said:

Oh Nev - a title to ponder and then read on. - -If ever seeing a similar need. exploring the \"wilderness\" of life would surely catch the curiosity of one wanting death - an example of true care put into tender poetic language that touches the heart - the phrase \" Death would not become you\" brought this reader near tears........x

Upon Wanting to Die
Lorna said:

I\'ve given pragmatic thought to suicide many times but haven\'t done (obviously) .... saving for a true emergency like fatal cancer or an asteroid coming our way but your words would surely stop the most convinced among us. It would take the thought of someone else\'s pain ........... this was masterful.......

A fine write N.
Now KP does not want to die, but she looks like an old \'death warmed up\' trout! lol.

Good write Neville.
KP has a certain whiff - of a sewage farm! lol.
When will you stop being horrible to her? says Fido.

When They Would Lose Their Shadows
L. B. Mek said:

Brilliant!
(Unearthed
we delve free of restraint
a touch, a glimpse
a shared intimacy devoid of reason
seeking, that which fantasy fails to imagine
I remember, warmth
in cold eyes, daring me to dream
my fingers
trembling, and ice dancing cacophonous
as I approached
a glass in each hand, a stutter in every step
wordless, knowing
she was already sipping on wine
I offered her a glass
statuesque, we stared
life pressed play, around us
she and i, lost
to existence\'s influence
only that winking moon, teased us
it all felt like it lasted a lifetime
.. then she took my glass
emptied her wine, right there on the grass
by my shoes, some dropped on the leather
I looked down, tagged by her scent
and I smiled, wide as a gaping cloud
and offered my glass, to toast
a new chapter in our life
she, merely blinked
in-time, with our shared pulsating beat
...
that night, we hardly moved
all night
merely spoke till silence, rudely interrupted
by alerting us
to the absence of everyone else
that night
our shadows, danced naked
as that knowing moon, serenaded us
...)
