I have a little garden visited by magpies and finches and squirrels and foxes. That\'s as exotic as it gets on the outskirts of Glasgow. I have a porch with a platform outside where I have my coffee and cigarette in the morning and an uninterrupted view of the woods to the north and the \"sleeping giant\" (that\'s a formation of hills in the Campsite Fells that ..looks like a sleeping giant!, you can Google it) I say good morning to him but he\'s lost in his own thoughts.
I liked your poem. Not had time to write much recently. I read your bio and it inspires me to write a similar one, but not got round to that yet. Not so exciting but similar in many ways. And I though I\'d had a rich life! Anyway. Take care.

Thanks Soren for tomorrow\'s (so to speak) referral. Missed completely first time round. World times do sometimes leave me out on a limb. Rich detail; glad I caught it.

All the surburbinites are googling where this place is, and packing their bags as we speak.
Mind you, the ferals would soon turn it into the dump they just left.
I would keep this place to yourself.

How some folks are forced to suffer in this world, Soren; I\'m so sorry. I\'m sure that if you approached the right authority, they would find you a cozy little flat halfway up a tower block which would give you access to all the city\'s wonderful attractions below.

Wow, Soren. I found myself thinking about my own childhood while reading this. People, places, little things I\'d almost forgotten. And then I started thinking about how much has changed since. Getting older is a hell of an experience, isn\'t it, my friend? Thank you for this one. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Good write SB. Ahh, seasons. I thought \'That\'s a lot to be doing in one day\'. Though I could just about fit all that into the extra one second we had one year. lol.

Wow, this is a powerful poem about life\'s journey. Your poem explores the passage of time and the interplay of memory and nostalgia, reflecting on life\'s beauty and bittersweetness. You painted the highlights of cherished moments from childhood to adulthood, the joy of family and love, and the inevitable decline that comes with aging and loss.

There’s a damn sweeping tenderness here, because the poem gathers an entire life through its smells, sounds, seasons, family rituals, first loves, losses, and the slow realization that the world you once knew has quietly disappeared. The final image of your father’s face emerging in the mirror is the keeper for me, because it brings all that childhood wonder and accumulated grief into one unavoidable moment where time stops being a memory and becomes the face looking back at you.

Hello, Soren,
What an interesting and most unusual passage of poetry. To build and destroy and destroy to build. Who wields the ax to sever or to build, in who\'s hands be it for the ax is just a tool like money, to prosper or wreak havoc. Another very intresting poem from you, my good fellow.
Wishing you much happiness,
Tony.

The seasons are a rich tapestry! And the mason jars remind me of when I learned pickling and making jams and preserves.

Such a stunning piece of poetry, life\'s season\'s memories and all. Here in Italy our older generations still keep some marvellous traditions and still pass them down. 🌹

Epic write. A Mason jar sounds like a posh jam jar in Britain.
I like the trip through life; it brings back the same memories.
The last bit, though, is that dreaded realisation that those years are well behind you and time seems to go quicker.
Feeling nostalgic now.

The ax being borrowed alone speaks volumes; the imagery of your description just spills out of this work. \"Hand grip of wood, cuts their brothers where they stood\" is, well, brilliant.

You so accurately describe the helplessness I sometimes feel. \"On memory’s wall delusions I scrawl, now that you are gone\" in particular but the two-line ending offers some small relief. Nice work, as usual.

Damn, Soren! We humans really are a peculiar species. We\'ll destroy something magnificent, congratulate ourselves on our ingenuity, and then wonder why the world is falling apart around us. And somehow we\'ll probably invent another machine to fix it! LOL! Powerful writing, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏
