Chatterton\'s redress
Neville said:



I could read this all day ..

near perfect in my humble opinion .. far more cerebral than might appear at first glance ..

I tried hitting the like button a dozen times or so but gave up when the blister burst...................Neville

Applied with poetic imagery to sigh for is this description of how distant love can lengthen the feel of missing. One to remember as into my list of favourites it goes.

Love, love, love this! Being old school I need the feel of a book in my hands, turning pages, using my favorite bookmark, even the smell of older books. Reading has been a passion since childhood, and I thank you for this wonderful poem.

A wonderful metaphor Thoth inventor of the written word, who later in, Greek mythology, became Hermes the winged messenger enlightens this metaphor. Great wright

\"Free your mind upon these winged lines\" such a true and beautiful phrase! Books indeed fly you to another world and free yourself from mind\'s worries. Great job!

What\'s a decade here and there?
L. B. Mek said:

(I love speaking to the real elderly
85 plus
and still seeing that twinkle of mischief
and fun in their eyes, it reassures me
there\'s more to life than
what our eyes can see and our senses, can feel..)
this is a wonderfully encouraging message
especially, since modernity
has embarrassingly
decided, to pretend that the elderly
are no longer a societal issue...
...
indeed, after a certain age
we\'re either side of a decade
nearer, to that wisdom we seek!
thank you! dear Poet

the budding senescent
sorenbarrett said:

They say you are only as young as you think you are. Although the body ages the mind still feels young. This poem is good advice for a person of any age. Although my son is 45 I take this as good advice for me as well as him

Doh! I saw a soap serial with mainly young people in it. One line was \'Ohhh, he (or she) is so OLD. He will be 30 soon!\'

tidy groomy trim
Bella Shepard said:

I suppose, because they are always on display, we need to keep them neat and tidy. But they do have a very evolutionary basis. We can do so many things with them; grow them, cut them, buff them, paint them, chew them, scratch with them, peel labels with them. What would we do without them?

tidy groomy trim
L. B. Mek said:

Brilliant!
this is deep, dear Poet:
\'cleanliness is next to godliness\'
while soldiers, must
be in uniform to be and act, \'as one\'..
while society\'s first impressions
are dependant on clean shoes and
trimmed nails..
meanwhile our cupboards, just can\'t
get clean!
(deep!
could unpack this all day long..
well done!)

I\'m glad someone\'s integuments are trim. It\'s all right for some, having trim integuments! I might faint if I didn\'t know what they were. lol.
