Nature does her beautiful fine costumery over grounds once swept with deathly menace and scarred with death. Over tended green landscaped graves where young eyes never reached the maturity of seeing her for her timeless comfort and wisdom.
Ours, it falls to us to tell of war\'s aftermath. Of land now healed and humanity forever inflicting scars upon itself.
Appreciate your different take on the passing of time seemingly making ridicule of man\'s efforts to war.

Very true Fay, those women must be so strong to withstand the waiting while their sailors battle the sea.

good read Fay,
though I\'m intrigued by the picture: any story behind the statue and what\'s the beautiful landscape she overlooks? (forgive my ignorance)

how you captured the poetic mood of adolescence\'s musical scales, we have all experienced those feeling\'s you pictured so vividly with your words, fleeting they may have been, they remain enshrined within memory\'s idolised view of our cherished mementos of life,

How many indeed. These brave home makers, wives and mothers placing their faith in the hands of a cruel but bountiful ocean. How many worries are silently contained to keep young faces fed with smiles and confidence.
The lonely night vigil as storm thrashes against her silent prayers.
Superb wordmanship which draws your reader into the atmospheric life of those who endure the reality of everyday in the places where most of us just holiday.

Lovely. Weren\'t those days of simple pleasures so wonderful... and now we say... so safe too. Whatever happened to good old U.K. and its traditional values of decency. Your lovely piece begs the question i feel.
Yet the romance of your words has me daydreaming of simple pleasures of my freedom around the age of ten. The world was a playground, the woods an adventure, my friends were a bunch to play games with.
You have such a way with words.

A heartfelt plea for the real love and loyal dedication the mature heart holds in hope to find. Words which can only come from life\'s experience wherein the sweet taste has been savoured and lingers.

L. B. Mek said:
Indeed, we have so many \'such Times\' piled up aside those ghosts of yesteryear haunts,
a deep breath, closed eyelids and back we traverse through those landmark sounds and images: sweet time\'s that yield todays sad smiles, or dark time\'s that yield our bravery\'s stiff-upper-lips and those once forgotten time\'s whose brief remembrance elicit melancholic sighs...
waves upon memory\'s shore line, visiting with the coming tide and escaping with that dawn of belated realisation,
brilliant write Fay!
thank you for inspiring me to scribble a little reply

challenging at times but highly enjoyable read, as always I took a walk through your words, to be precise:
its late September in perfect weather, surrounded within picturesque nature, fingers brushing - picking, remnants of a bountiful harvest, as I sigh with gratitude for each juicy bite,

The romance of a land which has captured our heart will, upon a long awaited return, comfort our nostrils with a welcoming \"where have you been, did you miss me as much as i have missed you?\"
Nothing compares with a return to the environment which relaxes, comforts and reassures you. Unconditional love.
A place to really be.
