It went like a tale of private detective
My mind kept playing from The invisible man
Then searching for sherlocks and Watson too
Good one dear poet
Quite engaging

Liked this read quite a bit. Refreshing, new, playful and creative. I\'d also like to receive training in the arts of subterfuge.

Do your keep a flow chart on these relationship pieces you put out? I get about halfwaythrough them and get lost as to who is doing what to whom, when and why and to what effect.
But don\'t worry - I do have a firm belief that confusion can lead to fresh insights.....who knows...I hope someone does....

The Final Goodbye

Chilling read Paul, but possibly very true in the minds of some.

The Final Goodbye
Nicholas Browning said:

Well that turned dark pretty dang fast. I get the image of \"If I can\'t have her, then no one can.\"

A sinister read to turn the brain cogs. Two thumbs up.

The Final Goodbye
Fay Slimm. said:

A haunt of a read Paul when lines get crossed and what a surprise your final line was - - very relatable to some who have come to abhor living together. Great stuff and suddenly reminded me of couples I know who would half-fit fit the bill

The Final Goodbye
spilleronsheet said:

A love turned hatred
Yet they wonder
Maybe a spur of moment may make them loose themselves forever
Stories like this plague the newspaper
But what goes behind the broken pieces of a rose that bloomed one night
Well penned dear Paul
Broken relationships witnessing a fall

The Last Waltz

Very intriguing words Paul, one wonders who is the most hurt.

The Last Waltz
spilleronsheet said:

Well what a grand play
Wonder who had the last laugh
And who got deceived
But maybe in love there is no failing but only falling

The Last Waltz
L. B. Mek said:

(a great write!
details, you seemingly stole
from my own life\'s, experiences
as that\'s how relatable
your words read..
thanks for sharing, dear Poet
and inspiring, my own
little scribbled reply)
\'Does he
catch your tears and build an ocean\'
(for you, to swim-in?
is that why
you blinked, away
our goodbye
with one smooth, dive
leaping
from our love\'s, once
heady heights
to the all new, in his
awaiting, fervent waters)

Your brush strokes Mr Bell, are quite something. A picture worth a thousand words is what you wrote here, and you only needed a few. Keep wielding your mighty pen sir. Thank you.

WOW! It begs the question.... who has the greatest loss..... the man in the crowd or the bride.... maybe the groom is just the fool in the game. ???

I do not think I want to meet this woman.

Ah, brought to mind the mother-in-law. She could be lethal even with the plastic cutlery.

The Reunion
Garth Rakumakoe said:

It\'s visual art in words. Motion picture even. Brilliant, Paul. Absolutely brilliant sir!

The Reunion
spilleronsheet said:

Well we sure are born privileged
Such stories surround
Surround as nightmare
The society holds such tragedies draped in black
Thanks dear Poet
For showing the mirror
We, in our cosy lives forget the dark sides

The Reunion
Nicholas Browning said:

This resonates quite a bit for me. Isn\'t childhood just the best?
I enjoyed the read Paul, thanks for posting. Best regards.

The Reunion
L. B. Mek said:

while \'We\', fortunate majority
run around, lamenting our fate\'s-
such horrific details, make-up
the everyday reality
for the Truly, ill-fated: abundant minority...
(a Great write, thank you
for giving voice, to the desperate
and awarding us
a little, respite
from our endless existence
of wilful ignorance;
assumed indifference, as a necessity
to surviving, the horrors of our reality)

Well crafted dear poet
It’s difficult to decide which one I prefer more
I have a sweet tooth though

After Eights give me the burps, with all that mint.
There\'s a naughty joke about jelly babies - not to repeat in public.
Woof! My imaginary dog Fido won\'t let me tell it! lol.

The understanding between these two certainly has a life and unique character of its own. The closing lines in the end are superb. Well penned piece.

This is not only quite brilliant and hysterically hilarious Paul but if I was ever to put any bit of humour or satire in my fave box, this would certainly be popped in ... :) :) N :)
