Bottling It
Paul Bell said:
Britain in winter, you want to bottle any hot country you\'ve been to.
Actually, Britain at any time now depresses you.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
That image...“like Sangria, or the local cerveza”...is perfect. It grounds the nostalgia in something earthy and familiar...the taste of peace itself. Well done, mate!🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

My friend, I’ve seen moments like that…when a community gathers, applause mixed with tears. You caught that strange mix of pride and pain beautifully. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Never quite understood the game , nor the pseudo mysticism surrounding it.
Nevertheless Tom, you have managed with economy to sketch the feel of the attitudes which keep it going.
PS: Wot about MMA?

Sad way to go for the champ.
Once again, it highlights the mental health out there and the lack of support given.
Sadly, we can\'t see inside people heads.

I can\'t see any sense in it, even if it\'s in the name of \'sport\' - two men, or two women, punching each other! Doh! Sounds nuttier than my adventures with Fido. lol. Yet sad when it comes to this, as in your fine poem.

I felt it was a sly tongue in cheek satirical take on friendship ( or whatever is cliamed within its ambit). Advanced apologies- I have the wonderful habit of flying off on a wrong tangent.

Thank you for the announcement in such poetic form. Set in rhyme this poem falls poignantly in time for those who have not composed something to do so. A fun read although I have no poem on the theme of play.

I guess you remind me of my late mother\'s wise note that true friends are rare and few, the majority not worth the trouble we take and misery we endure. On the other hand those latter are likewise whom despise us when we ask a favour. I\'ve been so disgusted with myself for trusting them. Beautifully rendered and charming with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing. This pretty number should resonate with countless.

Tom, this is quietly powerful...the denied pound turning into a mirror of friendship’s imbalance. Honest, wounded, and clear. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛ Whatever is pulling you away the next couple of weeks, will miss you mate! See you on the other side!

Words and actions not always the same. A facade friend just for appearances or a faux friend for decoration. Lovely

Bad Week Breakdown
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Tom, this is comic timing at its finest. The bad week, the shame, the tension building…and then the twist with wrestling hits perfectly. Relatable, funny, and so well done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

We all have a child in us even when we have grown up. Nothing wrong with a child inside or out. A fun read Tom

Such a true story Tom, it is amazing how many things can go through your mind when trying to get to sleep.
I don\'t need to worry about my passport though, the last one I had was back in 1966. LOL
