I second that emotion, so long as they are equally receptive.

\"OPPOSITES ATTRACT\" this attraction is exploration, getting out of our comfort zone (initially entrapped by love).
But as you asked, we need to get along for eternity (or at least for much longer)
Thnx

Thanks ANDREW ~ BRIAN HERE ! I have been a Prison Visitor (Liverpool) and worked with the YMCA and teaching Applied Science to Special Needs students. Also I teach Applied Sciece in a Vocational College. So every day I meet POEPLE who are not in my normal sphere of *Friends* I also travel a lot ! To me this is what makes life worthwhile to share time & space with a very wide range of People of different ~ Class ~ Culture ~ Creed ~ Colour etc. Having been raised in Liverpool one was raised in a very Multiethnic & Multicultural Society so it makes one very tolerant in the UK\'s increasingly Multicultural Society . The Church I attend has wide range of Nationalities & Class so it is a good environment to be *All things to All Men* SYNONYMS & ANTONYMS . Thanks for sharing & caring !
Blessings & Peace & Joy
Your as always BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡

Hello Andrew,
A wonderful poem. Thank you and so true.
Meeting people different to ourselves is a wonderful voyage of self discovery and self realisation. A voyage which at times we are too scared to undertake.
Keep writing FineB.

The illusion of angels (In memory of Paul) Elegy #1
Neville said:
There are those of us who will be able to relate to these fine words, even as we work through them... others , sadly but inevitably will come to understand in their own time.... a very powerful and emotionally charged poem Andrew sir....... Neville

Elegy I for the death of Leonard Cohen
Neville said:
A fine and fitting tribute Andrew to the late, great Mr. Leonard Norman Cohen... No man other than my own Father has had such an influence on me personally my friend... I had the privilege of seeing him live on 9 occasions and he honoured me shortly after my Father passed in 2012 by writing to me and sanctioning the use of his words \"some men should have mountains\" , etc etc within my eulogy ...... a great man indeed..... Neville

Bo said:
I used to spend eternity in those moments, almost never leaving, eventually I learned to embrace and love them. Though now as I find they happen less frequently and it’s become harder to pull myself out of, I find I’d rather be happy. We all have our muse, it’s trying find it that makes the journey so tiresome. I love how relatable this is and it actually helped a little to pull me out of the one I’m currently in so thank you.

Suresh said:
As Neville said, seamlessly writ. We are scared sh.. of politically incorrect that it\'s stifling our expressive self, both harmless but even more the truly disturbed.
My trees all turned out to be vines, they grew too fast, and left the yard, but the roots are still my responsibility. Good subject to compose.
Thnx

Tis said in some circles that Nature has planed
That Names with their Poems agree
And ANDREW FORREST in manner so bland
Has offered an ODE to a TREE !
Thanks for sharing ANDREW ~ it makes sense ! I planted some Trees in my Youth (20 years ago) and now they are much taller than me. From little ACORNS ~ Mighty Oaks do grow ! In these austere days I now only plant FRUIT TREES & BUSHES ~ AMEN
Blessings & Fruitfulness
Love in the SPIRIT ~ BRIAN & ANGELA 🧡🧡
