You are back, Nev! That’s a relief! Thought you might have succumbed to long covid or summat.
Instead you were off to exotic places….. Never been there, but the richness of your lines took me; your last three lines……… there I have been, so thanks…maybe! 🙂

Awe dearest, I find writing helps my memory! Congrats on 800 poems posted! The light will always shine in your soul, forgetfulness is part of aging. Don\'t let the fog stop you from doing the things you love. WiFi is beautiful, but it can be a pain. Enjoy the real world .. Hugs

L. B. Mek said:

I read and these words came to me
(Inevitability, as both curse and mercy
ending\'s, as opportunity
to reclaim a little dignity
mindset\'s, pathing our curated fates
old as a positive, to those gleaned wisdom nuggets
we envisage our finite lives and smile
inking our fears free and hiking to our serenity \'hot spot\'s\' of Nature
to download, that legacy bequeathed
by all who came, before
and upload, a few droplets of ourselves
for future generations to find escape within)
thank you! dear Poet
stay safe, cherished friend

Goldie and I are millions of years old. Are you too?!
Well done to get to 800! We both plough on past our 800, churning out summat every day hopefully, even if \'having prepared one earlier\' as they say - Blue Peter, in days of Shep, one of Fido\'s relatives. lol.

Emotive words Neville, I know all about dementia, my wife suffered from it and died due to it.

Hope this respite gives you the peace and space to rejuvenate, and come back reinvigorated and strong. The words have never failed you, that is evident in this poem. Your light shines brightly every time I read your verse, and I am truly grateful for your friendship.

A part of me yells as it says that now dementia doesn’t happen with the old they say…age seems growing while memories keep fading….your words will surely be missed, awaiting your penned thoughts….

Laccaria Amethystina
arqios said:

A deceiver she is, pretty and lethal as she absorbs toxic arsenic from the soil. Perhaps a pot or plot without such to absorb shall make her edible self quite so the high maintenance beauty that she isl

Laccaria Amethystina
Bella Shepard said:

Looks can be deceptive, as you so aptly put. And yet the element of danger or risk can be enticing. Beware the allure of the Laccaria Amethystina, for it/she cannot help what it is. A wonderfully sensual write my dear Neville!

L. B. Mek said:

Brilliant!
how I envy your poetry\'s subtle touch, Hyung
voicing everyday life\'s \'relationship ikiness\'
in three lines
while I can barely scratch surfaces
after hundreds of poems..
thank you! for inspiring me, yet again
(\'amethyst deceiver\'
and the deception?
a scenic wordles promise, that love will continue to mushroom
and grow in each other\'s hearts,
and for some, it will
so i guess not a false promise
but for us
all that was left was the purple stain
on that chest pocket
of once untainted shirt\'s and shawl\'s
no finger pointing or loud voices
just that overindulgent assumption
all is ok
because smiles are on display
only
that purple poison, has set-in
and all we can do
is ink it in poetry lines, release it
to wash our hopes clean
awaiting another chance
where lasting trees can be planted
instead, in those
delicate pulsing gardens
where love dwells
and then our promises, can be rooted
to much more resilient, serendipity\'s..)

Ooooh Laccaria Amethystina -- take care if you meet her - she\'s an arson absorber but with a name like that how could she do anything but beautifully deceive - - love the way you play with her colourful nature...............x

Primroses and Kites

Kites are wonderful birds to see, they appear over our croquet lawn very often.

Primroses and Kites
Bella Shepard said:

When I was a child March winds brought kite season, and the sky was full of them. I rarely see one these days, mores the pity. But I can enjoy the primroses, so all is not lost. So nice that we may all share these lovely, simple joys. Thank you dear friend.

Play-days are ever remembered when kites dance the blue in my daily wanderings Nev - - your write set me off looking back on those gone springtimes of picked bunches of yellowness too. Great that more folk now play and grow in those same places though eh ? ...................x

Looking Forward to Change
Bella Shepard said:

In our youth, time is here and now. It becomes a commodity to consume, and then move on. But time will also allow growth and reflection. And the selfishness of youth can be replaced by a greater depth of understanding. There is always hope that it may be so. Excellent analogy of flakes in a snow globe. A very thoughtful write dear friend.

Looking Forward to Change
orchidee said:

Could I meet her?! lol.
I was \'looking forward\' or was it \'backward\' in that the shopping precinct clock went back an hour LAST week. Hope they don\'t change it again. Some dunce changed it a week early. Doh!
