When we find those places of calm, peace and love in our lives we keep returning to them and then comes that day when we stay at that place.
Wonderful words once more Fay.

Good write Fay. As I say, not being near the sea, often I only get as far as the duck pond in the park!

So many memories of blackberries and apples for free as my walks around the countryside took me passed those places.
Wonderful memories Fay.
As I was walking round a lake earlier this week taking photos I actually took one of blackberries shrivelled on the twig.

Memories for me as well. In addition we had abandoned allotments near us (abandoned at the end of the war and nowadays a small nature reserve) where raspberries had taken over. Many an upset tum from over indulging on the way home from school.

Well if this dont prick my finger with many memories i dont know what would. Such memories stretch from well concealed wasp near misses to wonderful blackberry and apple crumbles with hot custard.
This year was no different though far fewer wasps around. Yes Im always ready to harvest natures bounty from the bramble hedges and reaquaint myself with those fortunate enough to have an apple tree (scrounging fallers).
A joyous reminder of the change of season from you our queen of mother nature poetry.

I guess the safest approach for ones self is to be self assured and follow your instincts - so long as you are prepared to be wrong. If one is not self assured then you won\'t understand that door slam.
Of course if the fella is as thick as a brick then he\'ll probably be deaf as a post from all those slamming doors.

Tall Tales
Neville said:
I would have given nigh on a months pension to have written \'Tall Tales\'
... and what can I say about
\'as poets sit silent thinking of books
a coastline\'s tall tales could fill\'.
... nothing, because words would not do them justice ...

Once more your words have taken me to the seashore watching the world that is out there.
I have been so fortunate to have seen gannets and seals. I have also seen dolphins and porpoises.

Beautiful, this summer I got to see a few seals bobbing in out of the ocean, and a few diving pelicans, and seagulls fly in synchronized flight like planes! Your poem is charming

Superb picture your words painted for me today. I saw the ruined prow poking out of the sand whilst sea salt air steals away softer timber grain leaving sculpture to dream upon just as you say.
I\'ve never seen a colony of seal nor dive bombing gannets other than on my TV screen. But felt that cold blast of wind-bourne sand across my flesh - I was going to say tussling my hair but heck...it\'s blown my hair clean away, Im completely bald!
This poet is itching to be aside the dunes absorbing oceans blast and bird cry again.

Lennon and McCartney words come to mind - there are places i\'ll remember, all my life though some have changed, some forever,not for better. some are gone and some remain... all these places had their moments -
And so it is. Places have memories. Some places are haunted with memories. Some places best avoided.
Many places are revisited in my poetry as i sense they are in yours.

Well now I realise you see me for the ingenuine beast i really am. Totally a womaniser with all the smooth lines and tricks to win favour and sate my lustful desires... oh hang on... no,.... those have faded into memories now....
I guess i\'m just that has-been rogue.
But sssshhh, don\'t let on.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Angela here - Good Evening FAY - Thank you for a very Thought Provoking Poem on the very important topic of COMMITMENT. In my experience Ladies are generally more sincere about Commitment in Love than Men ! I guess its a BIOLOGICALLY based drive to ensure the next generation ! I had some suitors who were much more interested in my *BODY* than my *HEART*. Fortunately BRIAN was very different ! He was sensual but never Sexual and was very interested in Me as a fellow Human Being not just *Another Dolly* ! From our *First Date* He showed a higher level of commitment & interest than I had ever met before in a Man ! We were *Soul Mates* from the start & still are ~ AMEN
Blessings - Love ~ Joy & Peace

Indeed! Although, our dilemma - at least initially, rests with the fact that words come before actions - usually, and we\'re forced to take their heart\'s supposed fealty to our hope\'s: at face value, or risk being landlocked with the abundance of insecurity that threatens to drown us completely...

L. B. Mek said:
wonderful picture and words Fay, when viewing sunsets or sunrises near archaic building like castles, my mind always tips to that realisation: these walls have witnessed such scenes for hundreds of years and have watched-over so many generations, as we witness the undeniable sanctity of Nature\'s majesty
