Interesting style, very \" to the point.\" A lot said in few words. We are often turned in on ourselves, become reclusive, despaired by life, only to, suddenly, be reawakened. It is usually a very small thing that triggers the resurgence. So, now a new life begins ? Hope so. - Phil A.

Losing a friend is most difficult. A poet-friend leaves behind words that can be read and reread and thus renew the acquaintance. Nothing distills the loss as well as remembrance. A great write, Fay. - Phil A.

Thnks FAY for a wonderful tribute to a dear departed poet. I have lost friends who were artists ~ poets ~ musicians etc. Although their art ~ poetry ~ music lives on their unique creativity is stilled forever. It is that \"death of creativity\" that I too find hard to bear. Thanks for caring and sharing such an elegant requiem ode coupled with an equally poignant art form. Yours B

Thanks FAY for sharing your \"pain of lost love\" in the context of such an elegant poem. Every sensual relationship we have makes ud better for it but worse ~ when it comes to an end. So at all stages in our lives we can empathise. In the case and DS & Yourself ~ where it the end of a long loving and happy marriage that must in essence be impossible to bear. When you share the agony of lost love in a Poem we do absorb with you some of the pain but the majority must always lie with you. There is no answer ~ The LORD gives and (for one partner) the LORD takes away. However if we do have Faith of a reunion in Glory with our loved ones who have gone before ~ it can (so I am told) make the inevitable period of bereavement more bearable. Thinking of you and praying for you (and DS as well !) Yours B.

Better the owl than the rats. I felt the crumbling walls reading this. It\'s a shame so many of the old castles are
deteriorating, fit only for the Hoot Owls. I guess time does conquer a. Lovely poem. Enjoyed it. - Phil A.

Great Fantasy poem FAY thanks for sharing ! I could see and scent the decay in the ruined Castle but also (through your words) envisage it in its former glory ~ and the silk-shod dancers in candelabra lit halls ! The OWL (as all Owls do !) takes advantage ~ in a soundless swoop ~ of and unwary rat. Many of the ruined Castles in the UK will never be restored but still remain as \"listed ruins\" to ever be the haunt of OWLS ! Thanks for caring ~ Yours B

My God, how long ago was this ended, child labor laws and all. What horrible conditions and treatment of children. Ignorance can not excuse it. That is always the guilty cowards way out. A great poem on a very tough subject. You are brave to write about it. Great poem. - Phil A.

Truth\'s Trust........
MendedFences27 said:
Trust is a necessary part of any relationship. You speak of it\'s absolute need in a marriage, which it certainly is. Without trust, based on truth, a marriage will fail. Well spoken.- Phil A.
