I was ready to fly with KP, but she meant she was gonna wear a Red Indian head-dress. Doh!
She gets up to some odd things.

Brought me to that old phrase about having feathers for brains but love love covers so many things... for my part I spit out feathers first thing every morning...

Making Out On a Loop
L. B. Mek said:

\'If you, but promise me\'
so tender, so subtle sweet
thank you! dear Poet supreme
(betting on life
with our heart\'s on the line
as our way of life
since that very first time
our pulse, raged
to let us know, this is our stop
all that\'s left now
is return trips, of memento\'s
being relived)

L. B. Mek said:

(My head says we should lock eyes
work it out, find a path
But this labouring heart, and stifled
breath
Recognise, we won\'t survive
A heart to heart, devoid of restraint
So I look, everywhere
But at those eyes, knowing
my kindness will be reciprocated
for old time\'s sake, for what remains
of what once, was
so sincere and pure...)
Brilliant!!!

Making Out On a Loop
Fay Slimm. said:

Oh what an incorrigible romantic you are mon ami - who would not want to make out again on the premise of more heavenly repeats with that whispered ode in their ear ? ..........x

You\'ve written brilliantly of the desire to capture the moment, the experience, irrevocably in time. Beautiful, alluring, well done dear poet!

Or, as they once said in the very old days (and I was there though much more recent than Andy and orchi\'s claimed experience - but long enough): \' No washing your dirty linen in public\' šŸ™‚

If you\'ve made it this far with just 2 flaws, my dented hat off to you sir. I missed Flawed #1... using my imagination though...

Bella Shepard said:

How often do we feel a sense of disappointment when we come to find that all that glitters isn\'t gold, a sentiment you have captured all too well. Good write my friend!

I love this poem, Neville! That last stanza gives much to think about....as we are imperfect even though we wish perfection to be true...wonderful!

Neville,
The grass isnā€™t always ā€˜greener on the other sideā€™...is it!?
Much to ponder upon during this fine day.

The ConfessionĀ 
L. B. Mek said:

attempting to scribe
those raw, heinous aspects
of our so-called \'human\' nature
rarely lends itself to poetic eloquence
be Proud, Hyung
you find it hard to write, despite
your unquestioned skill and talent
because, I feel
like me, you have an innate hatred
for the very fact
that such words, need to exist
but this is why, I refer to those I respect
\'we truth scribblers, few\'
this is why, we challenge ourselves
to word, a transparency
to our reality, even its most
detestable aspects..
(I read and learn, wise Poet
thank you!)

Just Another Way Out
L. B. Mek said:

harrowingly Brilliant!
so insightful Hyung
sadly I recognise many a friend
who\'ve fallen for this
far, too common trapping
of ambition, to fit in
amongst circles, made more
of venomous tongues
than a forest of snakes..
(to me, this is less a poetic depiction
more, a sobering meditation
on the ill-fate, awaiting so many
who in their ambition, to fit in
do instead, push themselves
till their very foundation, of self
begins to creak and shudder
underneath, all that self-deceiving
and those, vultures
waiting to find the cracks, to exploit
any weakness
begin to throw, their insidious stones
wrapped in barded words, targeted
to do the most irreversible damage
...
here be the price, of acceptance
within our so called society
...
and yet, the alternative, is to be left
a bystander, to life itself
...
fck!)

Doggerel Dave said:

If it\'s not too much trouble, Nev, would you mind if I put any appreciation on hold, until you arrive at a final version?
My overly literal mind has tied itself into a couple of knots over this, and I must take a lengthy lie down.

Violet bluebell( used to be yellow rose) said:

Interesting writing like how it starts more lighthearted with the mention of nature ( the sand ) and the turquoise umbrella ) but then it turns out he has a confession to make ( which I wasnā€™t expecting )

Especially like the first two verses

Sensational write Nev. - The turquoise umbrella did it for me - - reminiscent of a wonderful painting by Andre Kohn and his girl had a torn skirt too - -however I know not a thing of the male who faced need of confession - - as always the clever intrigue calls for knowing a bit more re. this haunt of a read..........x
