Cassie58 said:

A beautiful acrostic for the lovely Louise. So taken you are with her, you named her twice. It must be love.

A moving piece, Kevin. A fine write indeed. Love the repetition of gone to fight in the war. Powerful stuff.

WWI is on another level, where lore and legend still thrive. Thanks for capturing that so brilliantly. πŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š

A sensitive and touching write, in the days when whole communities were lost to war and about the bravery people showed in choosing to go to war and defend. Enjoyable read, Poetically

A fun story about Tyler Brown and the demon drink. Loved the Keith Moon mention. Now he was something else. I knew his mother. Such a quiet soul. Enjoyed the write Kevin.

Loved the poetic inventiveness and playfulness with the language in this poem. A fun story with a point that is told well in rhyme. For its poetic use of language it deserves a fave

Quite the stark contrast between his choices and a more serene alternative. But recovery isn’t ever easy. Superbly moving poem πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ•ŠπŸ™πŸ»

A lovely tale of the daily jaunt of a alcoholic with a nice ending, but to have Keith Moon playing drums in your head just goes to show you are in a bad way ( it is a great line), really enjoyed the read.

In Praise of Mary Bennet
arqios said:

What’s that famous line about having to receive all the Bennetts in the country? Someone should really put to pen a spin off on Mary Bennet! πŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š

Along This Path
Poetic Licence said:

This lovely piece takes me back to a time of real communities, everyone worked in the same factory`s, lived in the same houses, looked after each other. When the pits and the factory`s closed the people lost so much, but also the nations fabric was broken. Great piece of writing

Along This Path
Cassie58 said:

Walking to work, the factory gates, the camaraderie. You took me back sometime. Factory closures, redundancy and hardship. That certainly paints a sad picture. How difficult that must have been to navigate. Matchstick men. I am familiar with Lowry. A devastating time for many.

I enjoyed this read, we often forget once people are buried, that they had a life and so much wisdom, knowledge, experience etc has been buried with them, lovely read

Oh I hope it is not the last, I see that there is some room and some use for free verse as well... but the Graveyard, yes. It is a place of honour and privilege, even intimacy; in stark contrast to its cold and often bare ambience. Much enjoyed this Kevin πŸ™πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ•ŠοΈ
