Not half! I\'ll have some of that again please!
This getting older business is getting exhausting with all this reminiscing stuff. I\'ll be worn out. Wouldnt be without me memories though.
Love the way you use words.

I love nature, in this poem, I can see the beauty of the sun cut its exit, lowered its lashes, and spread heaven over new feelings.\" Our feelings, though, are not new but stretch back many years. Awesome poem with many feelings oozing from each word.

Jerry Reynolds said:
Good write, Fay.
I was homeless in California.
Rowling was homeless in London.
I became an advertising artist.
She became the world\'s best-known writer. The line between good and bad luck is razor-thin.

So sad for a life to end up homeless and no skills to work. But those who do work and have income have no idea what goes through the mind of the homeless, May God bless them. Great emotional write Fay.

Not, as you point out Neville, typical, your Brian.
Where I live, when covid ramps up (as it is beginning to right now...) the homeless get rounded up and popped into hotels for the duration and then sent back out again -aah!
Like your word picture though, Fay.

It can happen to anyone and for just as many different reasons as there are individuals who find themselves in the unenviable situation you have so magnificently portrayed ...
Having worked in the field of mental health, I know very few who would choose to remain homeless if they were given the choice ...
in all my years, I can only think of one ... his name was Brian, now long gone ..
I have often thought about trying to immortalise him but think maybe, your \'Solitary\' has broke the back of the work I had been struggling with ...
and for that and so many other things, I thank thee ... x

\'Alone that nameless spectre,
he of the back
bent and misshapen accepted
no charity
but lasted to out-live landed
rich gentry\'..
what a hauntingly vivid portrait
your words paint, dear Fay
how sobering,
yet also how remarkable that dignity
you imbue your portrayal with...
a glimpse of your empathetic brilliance
in all its Poetic glory

Everything was so new and exciting for us as young lovers. The world became alive all those thousands of days ago.
And you captured all this with words which painted my vivid picture of special times. The clothes we wore, the music we heard, the language we spoke.
A really special poem today Fay for a has-been romantic like me. Into my favourites of course.

It\'s always struck me as obscene to capture and \'train\' a wild animal. The more the breeds natural existence is removed from association with humanity the greater the obscenity.
Your words today are very gentle with a subject i feel strongly about.

Human cruelty has no bounds, for we have used our might and our intelligence to tame even the fiercest of adversaries, robbing them of their magnificence and their freedom that we are incapable of experiencing. Your words are truly humbling.
