River-Speak.
Heather T said:

I love being lost in your language again. Your images brought to mind the many pieces of pottery and arrow heads churned up in the sandy banks by the river I played by all of my growing up years. I used to imagine the natives hunting deer and fishing.

I agree with Fred, you are good indeed. I\'m looking to buy a book from you if you have published one. I almost feel like I\'m taking advantage of your writing reading it for free. Thank you so very much.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks FAY ~ Rivers are very precious in the purification and preservation of life ! Trees thrive on River Banks ~ Animals enjoy their cool and life giving nectar ~ insects and fish spawn and dwell in and by Rivers. How would your River report on the Humans who have lived on her Banks ~ drank her Water and used her for transport from Village to Village ~ did they treat you well ? Do we treat you better now ? I think not ~ Let us PRAISE and PRESERVE our Rivers ~ they are a precious heritage. Thanks for caring ~ Yours BRIAN

Move on ~ He\'s a chapter in the past
Don\'t close the book
Just turn the page !

I love it Fay ~ it is a new sentiment for you !
Unrequited Love ~ Cage ajar ~ The bird fled !
BUT ~ New desire ~ New appetite Female eyes
Lit again and full of hunger ~ Prized then the nectar
Fired by another ~ with not a sign of regret !

This is so so sensuous FAY and gives hope to
all who have Loved & Lost ~ To Love again !
Thanks for caring ~ Yours as ever BRIAN

Then again, if I had a last word, it would be \'sherry\' or \'pork pie\' please. I wish I would shut up! lol.

orchidee said:

A fine write Fay. I\'m not always so meditative. If I am, I aim not to be complex. In \'deep times\' some words seem to \'get in the way\' for me. None of this applies to your fine poem though. It\'s just me thinking aloud.

If I had a last word I think it would be \"forgiveness\"

Great piece of art

Super sensitive write. Nature can seem to be cruel but it will survive as long as homo sapiens appreciates it.

A beautiful poem with some stunning lines ... \"nature\'s calm requiem for the life and death journey\". Thank you for this poem so inspiring to all poets, I\'m sure!

Hypnotic.
malubotelho said:

I felt the experience through your writing. I have a double feeling about snakes. Some attraction and then respect. I don\'t know if I could have one draped on my little shoulder. Too scary for that, brace Fay.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

WOW FAY ~ never saw you as a SNAKE DANCER ~ Well done ~ Oddly enough Ladies often find a big snake ~ Like a BOA CONSTRICTOR (as in your and my picture) less threatening than a small one ! I have an African Grass Snake I take into Primary Schools the Kids love it but the Female Teachers run a mile ! thanks for sharing the thought of FAY draped with a mega snake really made me smile ! Yours BRIAN
