When greed of self preservation is the only object, lest not forget that without the others we too shall cease to exist.
As always, superbly poemed

ANGELA HERE - Good Evening Fay - Just half-watching the ENGLAND vs MONTENEGRO MATCH with BRIAN ! Thnaks for posting an elegant DIABLO-POEM ! Brian & I generally post a mirror Poem to make it symetrical ! You have chosen a much more difficult route (geometrically) by composing a different lower half - AWESOME ! Your POEM mirrors our MANTRA today *POETRY IS ART - MADE WITH WORDS* Your concluding TRIPLET is a challenge to all of US !
Coping with life - Poets sljp outside reality
spin cotton wool stories then - mind-flying
between lines steal moments to adorn words
Blessings & Peae & Joy & Love
Angela & Brian 🧡💙🧡💙🧡

Unquestionably, a mesmerizing feat that your words have poetically rolled out for us to see.
But life harsh reality is that for each successful hunt, there are nine tries.

DULCE ET DECORUM EST
PRO PATRI MORI (Horace ~ Ode 3.2 VALOUR)
IT IS SWEET & FITTING
TO DIE FOR ONES COUNTRY
This quote from Horace ~ about ROMAN SOLDIERS ~
Was considered a lie by WILFRED OWEN in his famous
anti-war POEM published in pothumously in 1920.
Your poem paints a different picture from Owens Poem
of Young Soldiers in the First World War (1914 ~ 18) defiantly
singing their Way to DO or DIE ! This is probably nearer the
TRUTH ~ BUT ~ apart from SILENT NIGHT there probably
was not a lot of singing in the TRENCHES ! I was born in 1983
so Ive never had to do NATIONAL SERVICE and joining the Armed
Forces is optional. Fiends of mine who served in IRAQ etc found
many aspects traumatic. I guess WWI & WW2 (1939 - 45) were very different ?
Thanks for sharing ~ ANGELA & I support 11th November ~ wear
Red Poppiesand attend Remembrance Services & Local ~
War Memorial Services ~ WHY ?Because we are grateful for all
those who fought ~ and especially those who had died for Our
Freedom and for Me (BRIAN) especially people in my extended
Family ! Spain was neutral LET US REMEMBER ~ AND NEVER FORGET
Blessings & Peace & Joy
Love BRIAN & ANGELA

A fine tribute Fay.
From my (non-existent) book \'Meanwhile\' (meaning an assortment of daftness) - I remember it well. I sang there. We always won the wars. My singing scared off the enemy! heehee.

Wonderful write Fay.
The raptors only kill for food and for every bird taken by a raptor to feed themselves and their chicks four hundred are killed by cats for pleasure.

GOOD EVENING FAY ~ We love the Picture and the Poem ! Nature RED in Tooth & Claw indeed ! The Human Race have largely ceased to be Hunter Gathers so we have put ourselves outside the natural Food Chains & Food Webs ! We farm our meat and kill our Animals humanely and it is seldom that we end up as Animal Food for the Big Cats etc. Because of this most of us avoid Abatoires and we no longer raise and kill & pluck our own Turkey for Christmas ! Because of this we are often horrified if we see a *Kill in the Wild* forgetting that is how they survive 24/7 !
Hawks survive in the wild by killing small mammels and small Birds such as Sparrows ! In this elegant Poem you have captured the moment & its after-effect ! Thanks for caring & sharing !
Blessings & Peace & Joy
Love ANGELA & BRIAN

ANGELA HERE - Thanks FAY your posting is even more BEAUTIFUL than usual an elegant pictorial and poetical kaleidescope of COLOR ! You highlight Natures awesome display of colour all around us 24/7 and especially on BONFIRE NIGHT ! GOD is an awesome ARTIST and when he created Planet Earth specially to be the unique habitation of MAN & WOMAN he not only gave us FORTY SHADES of GREEN - BUT Forty & more shades of every other colour as well ! I say to myself - *What a Wonderful World* ! GOD also created Man & Woman with awesome vision - which enables us to distinguish a thousand shades (especially Ladies) - in 3D and in motion ! GOD also gave us a BRAIN that could record these scenes in colour & 3D. It is only when we really open our EYES and look around us and through a MICROSCOPE and a TELESCOPE that we fully realise just how AWESOME our Creator God really is ! Thanks for once again lifting us up onto higher ground - AMEN
Blessings Peace - Joy & Love
Yours ANGELA & BRIAN
