Tin and copper mines can go down pretty deep. We definitely need some recompense for laborers after they are spent.

I agree with Louis - great poem and last two lines still applies although with a little more subtleness these days.

Beautiful poem, Fay, summed up nicely in the last two lines. I submit that nothing much has changed, just that the servitude has become much more subtle. Kudos on another fine one!

Loved the poem with its timeless hour glass format Fay! I had paid my tribute to the Muse of Epic Poetry when I had composed my \'Story of English Literature in Verse\' covering up to John Milton. Thanks, - Raj, 06 June, New Delhi

Ah, the beauty of silence! It so typically gets lost in the dance of relationships, doesn\'t it? Enjoyed it, Fay.

If only people could unglue their eyes - I get so cross when I hear folk say they don\'t like abstracts without even thinking about them - they belong to what I call the if-it-doesn\'t-look-like-a photo-I-don\'t-like-it-brigade.

I hope you can forgive the analogy : Willy Wonca in the intro is explaining to charley and others the mysteries behind the doors, a dream land of mystic wonder. Enjoyed.

I agree that we often are sharing the wisdom of another reality in our poetry, Fay. Sometimes I am astounded at what comes through my pen. Kudos on this one!

Awayness.

If I am away from my lover I am sad. You make awayness into something beautiful. At least this is what your poem says to me.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks Fay for another lovely symbiotic picture & poem. Nostalgic poetry always makes me sad ~and each year sees the passing of aged loved ones and my Granny used to show me faded wedding photos and explain that I would only meet them in Heaven for they had long departed this scene. But to each of us the past is just a important as the present because it is our memories. And more important than the future because that is yet to be ! E-mails are much less personal than LETTERS and when an elderly person on my e-mailing list passes over I always delete Just in case I may send them a copy of a group missive and embarrass the remaining partner. The moral of this is one would never write a letter to someone who was deceased. But of course their memory and influence remains. The Bible says \"We are compassed about with a great cloud of witnesses\". The greatest tragedy of \"Manchester\" was that one little GIRL was only EIGHT ~ how prematurely tragic for her dear parents ~ nothing can ever compensate for the death of a child. Sorry to be so melancholy but your poem was so so nostalgic ~ Thanks for caring ~ YOUR BRIAN
