Certainty

Bella the paradox in this statement still echoes in my mind. And that I\'m certain of, I think.

Ode to My Brain
Paul Bell said:

I like tongue in cheek, it\'s all a bit like hide and seek, you start searching for god knows what, then you can\'t remember what you sought.

Certainty
Paul Bell said:

Just like that girl last night, elusive, out of reach, and probably out of my league.

Swan Lake
Neville said:


What an outstanding poem you have crafted here Bella .. You have without doubt, done her, yourself and poetry proud .. I saw a clip of the amazing lady in question some time ago and distinctly recall the impact it had on me then .. as does your dedication today ......... Neville

So very true in many ways Bella but occasionally we do know.

Certainty
Doggerel Dave said:

You certainly expressed this more succinctly than I ever could, Bella.
But additionally, the point you make re \'diddly-squat\' above is well made. My speech is riddled with such colloquialisms occasionally. Google does (sometimes) provide the answer.

Certainty
Neville said:


You seem absolutely sure of yourself .. & who am I to argue .. furthermore, I am convinced that there is a fundamental universal truth squeezed comfortably within those twelve strategically placed words, up there .... Neville

Ohhh, we know it all. We\'re know-alls. Some think they are! lol.

When Trees Go To Sleep
Neville said:



Had my visit been more timely, I would probably not be here right now ..
On reflection though, this is one of those rare occasions, when I am more than happy to be here at all ..

Better late than never eh\' and boy, do I like fall .................... Neville

Clarity
sorenbarrett said:

Bella so well said. The economy of words to express the infinity. Well done friend

The Lone Cyclist
Neville said:



It may have taken me a while to get here, but the journey has been well worth it my friend .. my only excuse is that I spend so much time these days back-peddling ......... elliveN :)

Ode to My Brain
Neville said:



I think .. no, I am absolutely convinced that you have just nailed our mental muscle here Bella .. and that\'s no mean feat, I can tell ya ..

Ode to My Brain
sorenbarrett said:

Bella I certainly can identify with this poem. It evokes feelings too and what more is a great poem than one that one identifies with and evokes one\'s feelings?

Ode to My Brain
orchidee said:

Urgh! I don\'t feel well - gelatinous goo.
What brain? I say to myself - all 3 brain cells of mine are there though! heehee.

Ode to My Brain
Goldfinch60 said:

Very good words Bella, the brain is the functioning of each of our bodies.

Ode to My Brain
Doggerel Dave said:

Not so silly, Bella. As a human, existing in this time and place, I often feel my body (including brain) to be very happily functioning without my close input.
I, as driver provide direction have motivations and desires, but the way these are satisfied, the mechanisms involved are not something I am conscious of or have much control over.
Your poem expresses that nicely.

Neville said:



I am mightily impressed and so glad you felt able to come back Bella .. x

The Memory Forest
Doggerel Dave said:

I must be suffering from a delusion that I have my finger on the pulse at MPS and don\'t miss much.
Seems I\'m wrong; I\'ve missed out on you, Bella up to now - apologies for that.
And not a good poem to start with - your poem here. There is the obvious finality about it.
Also, to romanticise the disposal of one\'s remains runs for me into difficulty as the whole issue is really of garbage disposal alone. If one wants to utilise this material in any way, then give it to a medical school. Beyond that......
I enjoy your poetry and will keep an eye on you in future - so write on....

The Memory Forest
sorenbarrett said:

Bella this one hit close to the heart. I found the words and the theme as well as the very thoughts of transforming into a tree most beautiful and moving. Loved it.
