Gone! those youthful days of stay in bed and grow.
Nowadays it\'s up at the first hint of birds yawning in readiness for that resounding dawn chorus.
Again you capture the dawn for us with a new angle. Beware of too much \'unsullied azure\' this bank holiday though.

i\'m embarrassed to reveal i am still a virgin (sssshhh I haven\'t told my son yet) so i can\'t really understand this piece.
On the basis that all the \'poor little rich girls\' i met were right ravers! Ah, those hot summer evenings in the grounds of Cheltenham Girls College.

Love in a none demanding, acceptance of mutual appreciation, comfort and \'like\' is lacking only in the danger of a passion which is the savage abusive wrecker of so many pairings.
Though familiarity may not acknowledge the underlying love until the familiar is no longer there and the joyousness which you exuded is extinuished. Like an empty fire grate which once was the heart of home comfort.
I really felt the loss in this piece. Very moving. Encourages me to remain singleton.

A fine write Fay. Yes, friendships and loves may not always be on a \'laying down your life\' level. We know different people at different levels, some just as casual friends.

Angela here (6:30 am Wednesday !) Loved the POEM another CAD of High Estate not willing to face the consequences of His thoughtlessly sown seed *Such men are nunerous*. It happens of course and several times within both our extended Families. Brian U& I have had lovers in the past but have always loved *circumspectly* without conception. Because of the positions we hold in the Community (and Church !) Brian and I make doubly sure that we avoid pregnancy - but we would (in due course) love to have a BABY - watch this space. In the 18th & early 19th C I am told that concepion *out of wedlock* was a disgrace resulting in dangerous *back street abortions* and *shotgun - often unhappy - marriages* You empathetic poem plucked many strings ! Thanks for sharing !
Blessings & Peace & Love

Oh I get letters like these every other week!
Away wench of loose ways and tarry not upon such imaginings. Look ye to those, your favoured, drunkard lifters of the tankard and your skirts in the foul ale house of your father.
Just thought a horrible response here would be such a contrast.
I know your piece is in an authentic classical style and brings to my mind how indirect such personal communication was \'in them days\'.
Cor - to call a spade a spade or what. Oi cock - you\'ve got me up the duff! Meet me at the vestry at 6 o\'clock.

I hear the strains of Cornishmen\'s voices raised in \'no hopers, jokers and rogues\' as rises the sun and village life begins.
You create such atmosphere for a creative mind to romance.

Tottally love this, Fay. You\'ve bought the aroma of the Cornish coast to our hearts, especially mine because my first ever job was working on his fishing trawlers. We had two boats and worked westwards of Portland bill both for scolloping and fish trawling also. Great read and a reminder how beautiful the South West of Englands coast and sea really is. It\'s a thriving community all over...

I believe we humans have the longest nurturing stance - at least 18 years, which in the last decade has become even longer.
I have always believed that the sooner the children become independent, the sooner the parents are released of their responsibility.
As always your poem, exquisitely written
