This one gives the mind space to wander. Like time itself it is in no hurry yet will not delay. A fun and most puzzling read.

Hmm. Esoteric, eh? A riddle for our indulgence. I could swear that\'s virtually an image of \"the British Josiah,\" but since I can\'t prove it...? Fascinating and excellently rendered with gorgeous imagery and a tantalizing, damning poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.

Ah...the game of kings and queens...where anyone could find out they\'re pawn. Well done on this my friend. It had a real classic ring to it, too. Loved it. 🌹👏

Pride and obstinacy together make for an immovable object as well as an irresistible force when meeting they go nowhere. A well worded and beautifully painted image in this very short piece.

Reminds me of the Tudor period in our history books. A brutal time, and as for Henry VIII, a right royal bar steward. An absolute tyrant and so religious !! Said his prayers all the time. I am assuming 2016 was the year you wrote this poem arqios? Or does it refer to something else.

There were dreadful days of Mary I. She and Henry VIII were murderers. Now that\'s no way to treat our mother-in-laws! lol.

Beautiful poem and not just the words of it. I love how it is structured to taper outward. From the shorter opening lines to the broader/longer lines at the end. Well done, my friend. That chorus of yours...awesome!🌹👏

On another note, read your notice of absence. Yikes, Glad you are all okay. Cyclones are no fun, I know...having endured Superstorm Sandy. Keeping you all in prayers, my friend.

Hmm. Mum having read and reread countless times Winnie the Pooh and etc until the tales are entrenched within me, I even bought the book on my own and retell the various tidbits from memory when occasion serves, and what is this farewell? Fascinating and intriguing in brevity with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy, thank you for sharing.

Lovely done, arqios,Your poem \"always and forever\" conveys the profound bond and commitment shared between two entities, likely representing lovers or close companions. It explores themes of unity, enduring love, and the intertwining of lives over time.

always and forever

Such very touching thoughts and your poem transferred me back to childhood days and promises made to forever friends. And then we grow up and forever takes on a new meaning. For some, it’s until something better comes along. Call me a cynic why don’t chã. I still believe there can be happy ever afters though. I have known many that have worked out. Your poem is a fairy story and I love it.

This poem speaks to me of childhood. A rite of passage kind of thing. Hopefully most of us have wonderful childhood memories. Some of them become bitter-sweet as we grow older, for those innocent days are now gone! We still have the memories though, and we should cherish them!
