Times of Then, Times of Now (recited in whisper, in a hospital bed in A&E in QMC, inspired by my ward neighbour, who had a fall, and suffers with Alzheimer’s, who talked relentlessly to her daughter, of losing “the cart” two and a half weeks ago)

Oh my, dear poet, I\'m sorry to hear of your recent adventure, may you now stay very well, the silver lining you got great material and kudos on the compassion because when we are in these places it\'s sometimes hard to concentrate on others. Bravo. 🌹

Good words Ben.

Take seven, all is well
A hit it has become
Top of the charts once more
A time to be thankful in life.

I love the metaphor of music, click track the pulse of life, in perfect sync. You take us through ages and stages, a wonderfully inspired and oh so clever write my friend.

Bella Shepard said:

I love the mirror image of your title.
We can simply accept, or dare to dream, for when we do such good, positive things can happen in our brains. Your last stanza begs such a wonderful question, that anyone would be hard pressed to answer, \"what if?\" A poem to feast upon my friend!

The person who walks against the throng of people is often the wisest of them all.
I will quite happily share a glass of wine with you Ben. Cheers!

Escaping Jim
Bella Shepard said:

I had to read this aloud. Your point carried beautifully in rhymed verse, outstanding. It puts me in mind of Plato\'s \"Myth of the cave\", how people can blindly follow, when they know no better. What pains me to see is a generation of parents, vying to keep their children ignorant of the truths of life, it is a breeding ground for ignorance, and ignorance is a dangerous thing in the wrong hands. Fantastic write my friend!!

Choice and Context (Resurrect) (A Poem at Easter 2024)
Bella Shepard said:

You have very cleverly used elements of the crucifiction to describe the sense of despondency that seems to be creeping over our society. It is certainly becoming more difficult each day to find hope that we can resurrect. Kudos my friend, a fine write!

At one time in my garden I had a single daffodil that was blooming on Christmas Day every year - so strange but so beautiful.

Bit of French there, in the title?
Anything \'foreign\' is always French to me, being uncultured in languages! lol.

Fine write Ben, I will always wave though, and I even smile. LOL

The Guy Who Waved
Bella Shepard said:

You\'ve brought attention to something that should be reflexive in us, and sadly too many will ignore these days. A smile and a wave cost nothing, but reap such rewards. Science has proven that a smile is contagious, and a wave is acknowledgement of a fellow human being. I love that you have tackled this dilemma, awareness is the first step. Great write!

A very kind and warm gentleman, funny and his passion of food and life was like most who leave earth early extraordinary. I saw some clips of him dancing and he made me smile. A kind dedication. 🌹
