Good write, Tom. My uncle worked for the railroad as a Fireman. Took me down late one night and the Engineer let me drive the engine to pick up the water. 75 years later I remember it as though it were yesterday.

The thing about writing is that a thought can come out of nowhere and begin to proliferate of its own accord, you just have to go with the flow and let it lead you. I love the analogy of each stanza, so well versed. The last one tops it off beautifully.

Powerful metaphor. Writing is a bit like cooking.

Just don\'t bewail your state here when inspiration (muse?) deserts you - I\'ve done it, many here have too. Just got to relax, and keep that notebook plus writing implement by the bed....
You do just fine to me, Tom

Good advice. The more you write the more practice you will get and the more people that will read and the greater the chance that many of those will be great. Nicely stated

I enjoyed the sea side nostalgia here Tom and the wonderful imagery your words offered. Sea gulls can be both a menace and beautiful. I love to watch them in flight. Happy Thursday.

Nostalgic in its feeling and yet upbeat. Wonderful memories of the past create the present joy. Nicely written with great images.

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your poem! It really captures that cozy feeling of being alone in a pub, which I can totally relate to. The imagery of a pint of ale and a good book creates such a warm and inviting atmosphere.Thanks for sharing your perspectiveāthere\'s something special about finding joy in those simple moments. Keep up the great work!

A fine write Tom.
My ditty is more sinister - and daft:
This guy comes up to me in the pub
An aggressive guy - I didn\'t know he was
I said \'Hello\'.
He said \'What do you mean \'Hello?\', and punched me on the nose! (lol).
There\'s no talking to some people. Doh!
