This is heartbreaking Michael.
I pray that you regain the strength to pour your heart onto what you love most again soon.
I know where you\'re coming from on a personal level as my mom passed away nearly 4 years ago.
I\'m telling you, you have to stay strong.
Never forget the memories that you had with her.
They will forever bear the person you loved so dearly.
And she will forever be the love of your life.
May her soul rest in peace.

Rules are pointless in your position, Michael.
My wishes are as Neville\'s above. (Later - as Rocky\'s below also)
It will be good to see you back.
Regards, Dave.

I couldn\'t help but react viscerally

then eventually, peer ever-closer
wondering...

thank you!
hope you\'re staying cool
lol

Good fun, Michael.
My quick contribution (I failed with the humour bit - I\'m sorry!):
Young Peter needled himself in the arse
His first try at smack but we’ll let that pass
Now he was just beginning
To find his road to ruin:
Veins were better until they became sparse….

neither Michael
dear friend, don\'t you know
this was never a question
that involved, you
since, she
will always, be right
about you, being wrong..
(\'marriage\' the only sanctum
within Justice\'s, prism
where double jeopardy
is a law, empowered
to establish, causality
aside
theoretical impossibilities..)
we simply lose
when choosing to contest
at that specific
time n place
best
to wait, till its all settled
and we\'re more likely
to get
that: \'oh\' .. \'right you are, dear\'
gifted Condescension, as our
aspired-for, best result..
(and you know, we know it too
rule is
they were right, in being wrong..)

Good write and pic M. Miss Berles sunning herself in the garden with deckchair, pencil and paper? Does she overdo the gin? Does it cause her to ram-berle if she gets on the gin?! lol.

\'mother\'s, learn to knit
by watching mothers, knit
painstakingly, passing
one thread though another
to fix those holes, in human
connections
skilfully balancing aesthetic worth
with the tangible practicality\'s
needed, to maintain togetherness
in everyday life..
Nature, too
let spiders, weave
their own cobweb paths to survival
but, Time\'s
change
and windswept, cultures begin
to get warped..
now, knitting
is a mass produced
machine, action
and family\'s
have lost the trick, to knit
nuclear, together
like, they once did
yet
that lowly spider
still
curate their, cobwebbed
paths
like their mother\'s did
...\'
(simply Brilliant, Michael
forgive me I couldn\'t help trying
to poetically express
what your artistry communicated to me)

WHAT IS IT?
dusk arising said:
ROFL now that is a fun write.
Unlike other birds, this one has class
not chomping crusts on unmown grass
such scraps for him provide no thrill
finer things be destined for his bill
he finds rich pickings outside Kentucky Fried
our connoisseur\'s gained weight since last he flyed
now he flaps his wings but to no avail
for flight we know, has economies of scale

HER LAST RESTING PLACE
dusk arising said:
Upon a churchyard green
My surname was seen
upon a weathered old stone
with its R.I.P. tome
A forebear unmet
from a 19th century set
a farmer dad said
finally sown in deathsbed
where\'ere i roam
whatever i bring to lifes fest
I\'ll arrive here in peace
at last finding rest
Your writing always inspires me M.E. You have a unique quality with word as well as those brushes.
