At a time of my life when the choice was between do something about the hole in the seat of my trousers or get a haircut, I chose to cut it myself using scissors which had seen better days. In retrospect I should have followed the example you set in your entertaining piece, but it was a time when everyone was doing it and my contrarian kicked in….

Beer Garden (An Acrostic)
L. B. Mek said:
a great read!
\'we oft neglect the \'public house\' roots
of our beloved pubs
so then, once more in timely Spring
they\'ve allowed us to unlock - our castle doors
let us few who can: choose
to simply toast and enjoy, for once
and let it be Fate
forced to wait and contemplate...\'

\"please do not make it a “fear garden”\" such true words Ben, we must still be careful.
I didn\'t see that beer garden when I was in Newark!

A Reunion on the River Bank
L. B. Mek said:
such a mellow flow, even initially when reading without context I was thinking of fishing (that Hemingway \'old man and the sea\' resonance) or reminiscing my college days when we used to sit by that river in Richmond and drink our beers outdoors, in the glorious summer (before the masses invaded that is, lol)..
brilliantly executed tone and feel, an immersive read: a timely write
thanks for sharing dear poet

So great to meet up with friends once more and to start fishing - wonderful.
I used to fish a long time ago, coarse and sea fishing but then got into fly fishing but stopped doing that as well maybe will go back one day.

Arm Chair
L. B. Mek said:
\'fantasise that you’re god there, thus
be perched upon a psalm chair,
or maybe your thoughts aren’t so calm
there, so you make your escape,
thus, you sit in an embalm chair,\'..
from Theology to Egyptology and beyond, you\'ve penned the \'buzz lightyear\' of poetry reads, here..
a delightfully fun read, subtly imbued with insightful meaning for those who choose to dig a little

Arm Chair
Doggerel Dave said:
An ode to a significant arm chair does me!
Starting from nothing, as I did more than once, the two most fundamental pieces of furniture were/are my bed and, wait for it, my armchair.

Fun write, A.S. An idea there is enough material to shape the poem into the shape of the chair.

L. B. Mek said:
wonderful eloquence as the spine anchoring your natural flow..
\'of electricity within skin conversations
your words remind, nudging
us back to our binary DNA
of instinctive language
where eyes and fingers whisper
those truth\'s that resonate, best\'

It\'s a nod or a wink or a wave for now, or a monk-like greeting with hands together and small bow to each other. Summat like that anyway.

So very true Ben. As you say even the simple handshake is missed so much.
Touching people creates a memory within us that can reach the core of our bodies and is so much missed.
It will come back soon though.

Don\'t hesitate Auburn S - the relief (albeit temporary) from irritation and soreness makes even the repetitive nature of the exercise worthwhile.
Take care, of both yourself and those eyes....

Good words Ben, we must take care of \"them there eyes\". At my last eye test the optician told me that my eyes were in a better state than they were the previous year - that surprised me.
