Finale:
On occasion, but fairly regularly I review my stuff. On this occasion this piece is now found to be redundant. Alas, a rather telling portrait at

has been replaced (shows considerable technical versatility – wish I were married to someone in possession of those skills) with a beautiful setting or rising sun seascape plus a few new words. A much more pleasant option.
In theory my piece here is therefore redundant, and could likewise be removed. This, I feel, would show disrespect to participants in the thread above. And for that reason it stays.

Hi Dave,
I get that some people can leave the odd typo but to simply not know or regularly use the wrong one can be annoying. The same with \'their\' and \'there\' and many others.

Dave you have just opened a door to a most important area. I love this write it is short, to the point, has rhyme and is instructive. More important it is applicable to poetry where emotion and thought is expressed in words. If one uses the wrong words the meaning is not conveyed and the mechanism breaks down. A fave my friend

This is why birds succeeds out there, their, they\'re.
The English language I\'m sure, is there to bloody irritate people, and it does.
We moan about it, pity the poor foreigners writing it, or righting it. lol

Hello, Dave,
Siblings holding a meeting to discuss their parent(s) future because they neither have the time nor the patience - like a board of directors discussing layoffs. It\'s awfully, awfully sad and cold, the truth be known. Your poem rings true in today\'s society and thank you for taking the time to care.
Fond regards,
Tony.

So, after reading a few of your write ups, I am realising I should read last lines first and then the rest of the poems. ☺️
The endless promises of the Government and then only to be snatched up by some AI company. It\'s a never ending saga. When it was all new, I was excited these might atleast provide more jobs, but at what cost?

Now look at him, an entrepreneur.
Well, that\'s what he calls himself.
Sure he\'ll visit her now and again.

This is a sad reflection of narcissism and greed in modern day society. Was it technology, our parenting, societal changes, or what that resulted in this. It seems only the tip of the ice berg where people care less about others, feel entitled themselves, are socially isolated and comply with social expectations of clinically sterile world with age treated as a disease. Nicely done Dave

Hello, Dave,
The question therein, it\'s plain to see - why he always spells kark with a \'c\'? Baffling and yet madly entertaining. Hats off and very well done.
