This truly hits the painful spot of reality. War is the great destroyer, but also the great enhancer in the worst possible way. Very powerfully said dear friend!

the gods of war would do battle with you for this. For doing battle is all they are good for... and hush, for they lurk in the dark curtains ever seeking new game.

Too true Rik and so succinctly put. This addiction to war will inflict more and more weariness to all life on this beautiful planet.

And - I\'ve got as far as trying to work out, if a famous hyphen is needed between anti and polarity or not.
It\'s sad, I know, what I belabour myself with sometimes. lol.

It\'s an unattainable height for me sometimes to understand some poetry. Don\'t they know I only got three brain cells?
They get tired of trying to understand, and then they go off on holiday. I dunno when they\'ll be back! lol.

baggage claim delay

For me Ohio is not the main point of interest, here. The pajamas in the cold and the lost baggage claim...... or is it me who has lost something, Rik?

I love the way music can help enhance the tone of a poem, and you sure picked a honey, the sweet strains of Chuck Mangione. I\'m swaying, toes tapping as I\'m reading, and loving every minute of this lovely memory shared. Thank you!

Not ever having been to Ohio I have to let my mind carry me there, which is much safer since dressed in pajamas I don\'t feel dressed for the occasion. It does evoke a playful and wistful feeling as well as type of nostalgia for a time long gone. Loved it.

That special piano could if it talked tell some awful tales Rik - your Gran must have gone through some terrible times watching it and the manor so grossly abused - - - - this telling lament is now in my favourites.

Personally I prefer going south, whether to warmer weather or the other side of the equator. Fishing in the winter is not for me. I feel frozen in time and body. Great poem

(distinction, helps us prevail
when conviction, retreats
from Winter\'s, tall tales
soon, a Spring
we can hope to glimpse, and
maybe even a Summer, highlight
or two, to add to our memento
collection
before, our final Autumn beckons
us
to that unknown, ever-after
next)
enjoy the ride, as our months pass-by
far, far - too quick, dear Poet
(really enjoyed the instrumental
chill easy-going flow, anchored
upon a defiant beat of vitality)

new car
Neville said:
I just got me a brand-new Mercedes Benz auto ..
What prompted me to do so, was the fact, since my cruciate ligament in my left knee went,
I couldn\'t use the clutch on my beloved Alfa Romeo .. not even in front of a bloomin tall mirror ...

Bella Shepard said:
Need to set this one to music, would make a great song. Stuck at home, maybe an old flick? A little \"Jane Eyre\"? Love your choice of movie clip and music. Surely hope you get that new car! Stay dry my friend.

Crypticbard this one hit home. I have had several poems like that. A couple of times they have even been blocked from the cite and once I had an irate reader hound me for days with remarks that are unrepeatable.

Can be a bit of a lottery when it comes to where you live and public transport...
Got home in the end, Rik?

I can\'t write too cryptically, though we each have our own style.
