well this is a little crazy
I\'ve been hearing bridsongs in the middle of the night
strange for central london
we usually get sirens as our lullaby\'s
.. timing eh? more we connect with people
the more we\'re in-sync when sharing
our experience of this living, thing
lol
such a lovely nature Haiku, my friend

Dear Mrs. Christie
L. B. Mek said:

Poirot!
easily one of the best characters in literary history
not just in a single genre
and David Suchet was born for that role
just a great dedication, dear poet
makes me want to watch an episode
\'Murder in the Mews\' a fav
(if Poirot switched sides...,
a scary thought lol)

Dear Bella this fits for me as well although I substituted the tales of Sherlock Holmes. They bring back memories and emotions of the past.

I have to say SNAP after viewing this verse dear Bella - - so clearly written has described my needs of late to re-read earlier favourites and why not indeed -- it has really roused me to seek again the famous A. Christy and her baffling mysteries .

Nostalgia rules, Bella. . And I do understand. It is more than just the tale, it also takes you back to the time of your first reading I get that directly from your poem.

(Coincidence? On Sunday my partner \'confessed\' to be reading an Agatha C. On Monday a radio discussion re updating, making her books more PC. On Tuesday you write a very coherent poem on the same subject....)

A Necessary Evil
sorenbarrett said:

How relatable is that. And at the same time how metaphorical. How much dependency leads to pain and loss. Yes a perfect title too. Necessary evil indeed.

I so relate, dear Poet
here\'s my feeble effort, mirroring your theme:

Doggerel Dave said:

About halfway through Bella, I was sure you were heading for a divorce and I woz in with a chance....!

I am meticulous in the creation of a comprehensive file system in my PC email - too comprehensive....a search takes an extreme effort - especially when I go to my deleted items (which I haven\'t cleaned out for a long time)....but noone told me the archive folders had their own delete file....

Fay Slimm. said:

What a clever and very meaningful metaphor Bella which on first read fooled me until the last few lines -- then I nodded in sympathy after knowing the same pain of hitting delete................ ooooh this one I keep for when I next press similar Saves dear friend.

Circle Of Life
L. B. Mek said:

indeed, so true dear Poet
I just read Andy\'s poem today
vaunting hope\'s role in our lives
I think that\'s all we can do
take a plunge and hope for the best
I for one, wish you and yours
all the luck in the world

We all want convience which is human nature, but would it really fulfilling if we always knew the outcome?

Circle Of Life
Goldfinch60 said:

We all ask that question \"What if....?\" But we are where we are and of the many steps we have trod and circles we have travelled we are still here and know that the future will be bright.
Life is good.

Circle Of Life
Doggerel Dave said:

Your circle of life is really a link in a chain I feel, Bella. As you step out of one link you stand in the centre of another….
I really like the image, and the above only came to mind after you prompted it. So many thanks for that.

Circle Of Life
sorenbarrett said:

Bella this is a fav The idea is so similar to what I feel. Infinite possibilities and each a step away. What will they result in only time will tell. A lovely write.

Circle Of Life
Fay Slimm. said:

We are all thought to be part of the field of pure Potential so choices we make at one time could not be those we would make later - yet making the best of what is the Now or the Moment will I am sure guide us to pathways greener - - your fine metaphor re. the circle of life and after reading your relatable lines on the subject I do hope my ramblings are not too obscure Bella dear friend..

Neville said:


if you remember way back when I suggested we form a cult .. well I am beginning to think its not such a bad idea since I often think precisely the same way you do .. but then again .. I guess most people do from time to time ..
