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....

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 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.

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.

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..

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 ..

another soothing insight
you\'ve shared with us, dear poet
(dear friend, if you haven\'t - yet
may I recommend you read
Paulo Coelho\'s \'The Alchemist\'
then contemplate your poem
in the context of the levante wind
and its capacity to deliver
the messages of lonely
and loving, heart\'s..)

Doggerel Dave said:
Just the kind of greeting I need when I step outside on these very hot humid days Bella. I felt it inside just now (closed up in a vain attempt to avoid the heat).
You almost portray it as a lover, and I think that\'s right. The next suburb to mine had a very dysfunctional relationship with the wind - trees blown down , roofs ripped off and deposited next door....... I\'m staying with yours....

Bella this is beautiful and strikes deep in the soul for the inner voice or conscious like the wind can be gentle and it can not be seen but is felt just the same.

What a unique and wonderful way of putting this. Life is on borrowed time and a gift that we will eventually have to return. How we have treated it during our possession of it makes all the difference in the world.

how I relate, dear Poet
whenever I feel lacking
I look-up the latest estimate
of stars in our universe
chuckling, at how it changes
daily, it\'s comforting
to know that even
all that self-Important science
gets it wrong, All the Time...
(I remember
in the last London Mayoral election
some guy had a campaign slogan
worded, something like
\'i\'m a man of science\'
I found that so funny
imagine, replacing
one zealotry for a fantasy story
with another, for theorising \'scientia\'
in just a generation...
what self-deceiving feats
humanity can reach, truly!)
lol
but like you say, each to their own

Thanks, Bella. THE question in the proverbial nutshell.
My only belief is that I\'m here because I\'m here... Now if you want to debate this, by all means, but I don\'t want to bore them other proverbials off yer..... 🙂
P.S: My further belief is that it will never be known why, so don\'t blame science.

\'That when I eventually return it
Hopefully in good condition
Someone else may enjoy it\'
thank you! how true wise Poet
this be that wisdom of humility
in accepting
that we\'re merely getting to experience, existence
we need not try, and own it
for an infinity we can\'t be a part of!
(if we look beneath
most of humanity\'s repeated mistakes
we\'ll find, an aged stubborn
individual, refusing
to accept their time has come
that they\'ve had enough
that it\'s time to let go, relax
enjoy the fruits of their labour
instead
what we find
is wrinkled, bony tremoring fingers
white knuckled gripping
to every last ounce of power
and pseudo control,)
