Skip Rat Pam
Bella Shepard said:
I would say that Skip Rat Pam, is quite a mam, a lady with a plan. The first verse \"Who’s that scurrying? Who’s that hurrying?
Who’s the one shaking around,
and somewhat worrying? Could have your next super hero there! Such a fun read my friend!

The Offside Rule

Football is a farce and all about money nowadays. I do not watch football, but rugby is so much more enjoyable - the Rugby Union World Cup starts on 8th September, I have watched EVERY match in last two world cups.

My dear friend, I remember when the games of sport were just that, games to be enjoyed by the masses. When Sports became an industry, and the bottom line was profit versus entertainment, it lost its gloss. I hear you and cheer you!

Impossible to truly get one\'s head around.
Last two lines - neat argument against capital punishment, worth your effort for that alone.
You stay safe too.

Bella Shepard said:
How such an abberation of a human being can exist is beyond comprehension. What can corrupt a mind so, that it carries out such diabolical acts? It is heart wrenching to think of all that those parents have suffered, and will live with forever. A very powerful write for a difficult subject, and so well done dear friend.

They did very well Ben and should be proud of their efforts and especially the way they have brought the game to the children.

The Morning After
Bella Shepard said:
Sometimes I think we need to rework what we call the \"work ethic\". In many ways it\'s come to mean how much time you have to put in on the job, rather than the quality of work. I wish quality could trump quantity, perhaps more would get done in a shorter, smarter way, giving quality of life a more prominent role. You\'ve hit the proverbial nail on the head my friend with this poem, great write!

Sharing this little mishap is so delightful, although I\'m sure not for Pa. How nice that such a project is a family affair. Great pic! What a lovely space to enjoy, as I have enjoyed this poem dear friend.

Cue to Make a Return
Parisab said:
‘For a life full lived, is both sweet and rotten’ untying the grasp of the ego through acceptance of nothing is being all good or bad-sounds so personal and universal: thanks for the good write! Immaculate!

I say to hell with the past and say hello to the new. My sympathies for the band but it wouldn\'t be a true band without a bit of drama people grow people go! This is fab and I particularly absolutely love the last stanza. 💖

Salud sir! This is an authentically masculine poem! It brought back the memory of certain object of my father he brought over and used from many oceans! It is universal and personal, thought of the Viking artifacts and throughly American in spirit! Thanks for sharing!

Australia had a similar: the three of them came out of the same mould with just marginally different paintwork.
A well targeted piece, Ben; the choice of sketch a perfect accompaniment - I only hope it comes to pass.

Smelly Socks
Teddy.15 said:
LOL this is another magnificent poem from you, yes in some places dark but only because my own father was a coal miner in Yorkshire when he was about 8/9 years old how times have changed my worst fear is the cell phone and the tablet and so on, children of today if left to their own devices can truly lose the will to even walk let alone run, or ride a bike I\'ve seen it. Yes your last lines bring a fabulous chuckle 🤭❤️

Smelly Socks
Bella Shepard said:
My friend, I grew up in an age when children were in fact children. We do seem to condition them these days to be productive workers and consumers. Children, whose parents plan their days and weekends from infancy, teachers who plan their evenings filled with homework, coaches who stress that winning is everything. Where is the freedom to just enjoy being a child? In doing they are deprived of one of the most important stages of growing up. And as they are trained, so they grow up to be, and teach their children. The industrious gears of life roll on. Would that those smelly socks came from a long day of playing, exploring and learning about life. I applaud your intuitive verse dear poet, so very well done!

You capture the conondrum of human existence in this eloquent poem, especially the second stanza. We are the maker\'s of our own destiny, for better or worse, not really knowing who we are. \"Brilliant\"!
