Such a shame you did not know your father better Teddy, my dad and I were like best friends, we got on so very well together, he was one of Nature\'s gentlemen.

Teddy, this broke my heart. Growing into ourselves takes time, and sometimes understanding arrives only after the person we most want to share it with is gone. Beautifully vulnerable work, my friend! πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Hi Shirley, a lovely poem for your Dad. I\'m sure he knew how much you loved him, even if you admit you didn\'t know him too well.

I love the lines about not knowing yourself as you were busy growing too. It took me until around age 28 to finally embrace the inner me and feel comfortable in my own skin. Strange that isn\'t it? I can relate to this piece, me and my Dad have a had a tough relationship at times but I now get on better than ever with him.

This poem is surprisingly relatable for me. Beautiful in its brevity.

The Trump cup.
I will remember it fondly, and tell my children how it was won.
Okay, that was the most boring final ever, mainly because Argentina refused to go up the park.
What was that half time crap all about, nearly topped myself watching it.
Roll on the new season.

Teddy, I understand this deeply. Sometimes one writer reaches a place within us that nobody else even knows exists. Lovely tribute, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

I\'m over the moon Spain won Shirley. The Argentinians use dirty tactics on the pitch. It should have been more than one nil to Spain in my opinion.

Nice write

Although what those that don\'t understand the game would find boring, a defensive stand, it was quite a game. Through regular time, overtime and down to the last minute. A lovely write my friend have read Dante and his Divine Comedy and I often wonder which realm he occupies. Nicely written my friend

Raven talks like a worn-down priest, no heaven to sellβ€”just truth you can carry.
Grief ain’t softened here, just faced head-on, like weather you learn to walk through. Beautiful work, sweet Teddy.

Beautiful write Shirley. I agree with it too. Those we\'ve lost wouldn\'t want to see us sad.

Ravens Greatest Wisdom
sorenbarrett said:

A most lovely poem my friend. It speaks of death\'s separation from those we love and care about but it is only that a separation and if they did love us they would not want us to be sad but to think of all the good times had. I love your rhyming craftmanship in this work Teddy. It rolls off the tongue. It sends its message well. I never could understand people\'s fear of death, in that it is a natural process like birth, happening to all. It takes pain away from the one that dies and in that way is merciful. As you have mentioned the separation may be sad but why not focus on the moments we shared. Lovely and a fave

What Does True Love Mean To You?

What Does True Love Mean To You?
sorenbarrett said:

A most important question Teddy the things you mentioned first may be important for romance or even passion but not for love in mind. The thing you mentioned last are more of a proof. To me love is caring about the well being of another more than yourself. Bad things may still happen and bad choices may be made but the intention is there and one is willing to put action behind it. Well written Teddy

Dreams Are Funny Like That
Tristan Robert Lange said:

What a tender and bittersweet piece, Teddy. The dream offers love so vividly that waking becomes its own kind of loss...yet its beauty continues to echo afterward. Wonderful write, my dearest friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Indeed such are dreams and is not life but a dream as well so short and full of the wonderful and the horrible from which one day we may awake. A lovely write my friend.

Teddy, this is a fun little tribute. It captures both the disappointment of the tournament ending and the pride that remains regardless of the outcome. Nicely done, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Time To Part
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Teddy, this really hit me. There’s a quiet heartbreak here that reaches far beyond a sunset. It reminds us how quickly an ordinary moment can become something we never get back. Beautiful write, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
