This one rings a bell. I used to bring cows in at night from the pasture and it brings back memories just like echoes.

It\'s tricky to comment on..\"one generation passes away and another generation comes; but the earth abides forever.\" I used to think smart phones were evil.

Having been raised for the first two years of my life in a mining town (Now a ghost town) so the lines: \"ghosts of centuries of mining towns and specters of legend\" have a special meaning for me. Although they say that one does not remember befor they aquire language I have vivid visual memories of this mountain mining town that the details were confirked by my parents. In this town in a house next to ours there was a card game where a man was shot to death and the word spectre has meaning. dydh da to you as well.

I was raised in gullworthy cottages a mere spit from the banks of the good old Tamar who has featured variously amongst my own little scribbles over a good many years .. Girt lush squire .. I will have to give lady Fay a nudge since I believe she resides thereabouts ... Neville

Dear Bard, did some googling on this one and found the answers to my questions. In doing so I learned something about the Cornish tongue, and it is lovely. I\'m a huge fan of \"Doc Martin\", and scenes of the beautiful Cornish coast. What a delightful piece, thank you!

Sounds nifty. We have ducted with a long hose, awkward but the decibels give the neighbours blower some competition.

Great title lost somewhere in translation ...... maybe :)

seasonal diabetes
sorenbarrett said:

This one left me thinking and that is dangerous. I often see things that others don\'t and that is called hallucinations, delusions or just plain crazy. Here the reversal of the letters reveal poetically stated the mental part of illness. \"emditation\" meditation, \"dictated maladies\" too many m\'s and another reversal of letters for intimidation- quite intimidating indeed. Another reversal on climbing. Not aware of seasonal diabetes, unless you over eat candies and sugars on the holidays. If there were I\'m sure it would have a temporary effect on the eyesight and maybe the spelling. Or was it just deliberate to boggle my mind?

Dear friend I am of two thoughts here, the light at the intersection of the road, or the intersection of life. Either one will require patience and consideration as we proceed. Just loved this one!

Been there, done that. That is to say in literal traffic and also metaphorically. The traffic now days is really bad.

\'out of arms reach\'
but not far from reverie\'s, reveal
oft, what we forget, regrets n all
we so enthusiastically, recall
(love the metaphorical, poetic layering
a lovely read, thank you dear Poet)

battle and dream
Bella Shepard said:

The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune will always get us, no matter how big or small, or even minute they be. In our simplest flaws of character, we realize our own vulnerabalities and how little we control. Wisely worded dear poet.
