Love, should come with a health warning.
The signs are always there, but we ignore them.
Someone has to make the move though, and the loser is always the one who didn\'t.

Your life in a nutshell depicted so well. Wisdom has definitely been granted judging by the verse written and shared. Old age will creep in unawares with it’s challenges showing us how frail we are but living well despite it all is where you prove your worth 🙏🏼

What hit me the hardest in this poem was the admission of a love that has faded and gone and then the comparison with belladonna (well could be a woman\'s name) but an addiction, intoxicating but poisonous. A lovely write Thomas

Rich in very human experience as usual, there are many touch points in your poetry which remind me of the way it was. I identify. Here:
‘There were apologies
and promises.
There were nights
when neither one of us
knew how to stop.’
A long time ago, but painful enough for a very strong memory to be provoked. Your poetry at times a therapy, Thomas.

Yes, kids are like sponges, everything goes in.
Some continue what they learned into their own relationships, and the cycle continues.
It\'s a tough one, hindsight is great. Sadly you don\'t get it when you\'re young.

Oh, Thomas, as someone who\'s sober myself, I can relate to this on several levels. Giving up the alcohol is one thing. Dealing with everything you were trying to escape is quite another. I\'m still learning, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

I rather think this is one of those universal winners which many countless could attach themselves to, as their own cry. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

And sometimes that walk becomes a journey of seasons, an exile even. Most moving read, Thomas 👍🏻🙏🏻

Hello, Thomas,
The clenched fists of youth defending the avoidable with age such situations treated like water off the proverbial duck\'s back. I enjoyed this poem very much, of aging and the wisdom of taking as little shit as possible. Excellent!
All the best,
Tony.

Thomas, there’s something wonderfully matter-of-fact about this. Life keeps collecting its payments, but you’re still writing books, loving your kid, and moving forward. Happy early birthday, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Keeps going faster and faster. I swear each decade you seem to hit a milestone where the way you think finally catches up with your age. I just turned 30 two months ago and it amazes me how different I feel.

Brutal December
Cheeky Missy said:
Charming. Mine passed the day after her birthday in January. I keep piling up memories from horrifying events every single winter until these haunt me. What is it about the rain I love that it dredges these hellish moments I\'m dreading? Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

A fine Poem as usual. We shouldn\'t grumble about getting Old , as not many people enjoy the Privilege as Mark Twain once said.

I think the day you get wise is the day they lower you into the ground in that recycled casket that saves the planet.
Everyday is a day to play when you feed the cat pay the bills walk the kids to school.
With you on the old people.
When I was young, jesus they were old.
