Some humans have and will carry on the work ascribed as keepers of the land. That is my hope, and this poem is one such work of keeping. 🙏🏻🕊

That’s fine, Tobani. No one could refute the truth behind those four lines.
But since you have gone to the trouble of informing me, should you wish to be better understood, then it would be your responsibility to use language to make clear your position, your reality (however hard or impossible that might be). A good provocation - thanks👍

Wondering the same countless times, how winsomely you\'ve rendered this age-old question which is the reason Mum and I used to pour over the old photos, seeming to relive what only lasted for mere minutes. Superbly rendered with excellent imagery and an exquisite poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

La, how this culls to mind the mutitudinous references in the Scriptures to this very pitfall. How every last one of us falls prey before we realize what\'s afoot. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy, thank you very much for sharing!

Show me a man who denies ever being led up the garden path by the flutter of eyelashes, or the sway of a hip & by Jove, I\'ll point out a liar .. we are but fools at the end of the day .. Neville

Tristan Robert Lange said:
The question for me is, why hide it? Of course, there are reasons for doing so, but i have only ever found that hiding my anger makes me even more angry. All the same, brilliant expression my friend. Thought-provoking and worth a fave! 🌹👏
