Upon a Dead Rose Dying
Neville said:



I have .. for as long as I can remember, always found the sight and the thought of dead or dying roses a little disconcerting .. I don\'t know why exactly but the image or images imprinted upon my mind leaves me feeling more than just a little bit sad ... I dont get the same feeling about any other botanical species ............. AGT\'s Neville

Long Ago
L. B. Mek said:

lol
I relate so much to your words
thanks for sharing, dear poet
and yes
when we start noticing, the virtues
of the fairer sex
we become a little, too - literal
with our imaginations
and hence, a part of our potential
to achieve the impossible
is lost, together
with our youthful perspective of life..
still
compared to the love, we get to experience
in exchange, i wouldn\'t change a thing
despite the bruises on my heart..
see, those bruises
let me know, the love I once - felt
was real, and that makes it
much more valuable...
heartache, is a burden of the loved
hollowness
is the tragedy of those, who never
dared enough
to love...
(sorry for my tangent
I got carried away, from your
poetic ode
to our years of boyhood, dreams)

Marathon of Poetry
Neville said:



Sheesh ......... it took me a while to fathom how to post my thoughts on your post Phil .. for several moments I had some kind of thought block .. but I am so glad I persisted and got here in the end .. and for no other reasons than
1) I enjoyed the ride
2) these words should resonate with all those who are serious about writing
3) and those who only occasionally do
4) because they accurately reflect reality and are therefore a universal truth in their own write
5) and because they need to be read and indeed commented upon
6) I rest my case ......... Neville

Making Music
L. B. Mek said:

(from
\'or Doowop\'
to
\'a sock hop.\'
your melodically, melancholic tonality
grabbed a thread in my chest
and helped me glide
through a life\'s
remembrance of grace
worded into acceptance
by your poetic eloquence..)
like Teddy.15
I hope this is a work of fiction
and I can simply, marvel
at your creativity\'s empathy..
but if as I fear, there\'s
some unimaginably harsh
life experiences
in the subtle mourning, imbued
in such, gasping lines of sincerity:
then, I simply have no words
all I can do
is laud your bravery
and champion
your exemplary, utilisation
of Poetry
to share, heal and help..
thank you! dear Wise poet

Marathon of Poetry

Never a truer set of words to describe the painful effort of penning a poem my friend. A marathon indeed yet one that proves gainful if we stay the course - love the thoughts in this -engaging read Phil.

My Heart\'s on Fire
Neville said:


this is soooooooooooo damned good sir .. something about it made me think of the late great Leonard Norman Cohen .. I could only like these words more, if I had written each one myself ... Neville

My Heart\'s on Fire
Jonas Robinson said:

Yes, find her. If she is the love of your life, then yes, it is very important. You cannot always rely on pure reason to punish your soul. Neither can we admit to these things in society, for fear of being anguished or persecuted. Thank you for sharing. I have also experienced true love, and it is the hardest thing to get over. I almost got in trouble with the law in the process of looking. Though, I kept looking, and eventually, I found someone new.

My Heart\'s on Fire
Fay Slimm. said:

At a guess it would seem the writer had fallen in love with a movie queen
- - -- very intriguing story Phil - - - what a sad end to her films of adventure in this tragic but poetic tale of losing traceo of Daisy - - great read my friend.

My Heart\'s on Fire
JudyStella said:

I felt like watching a movie! I love how the missed opportunities are portrayed. A sad ending but that’s what strengthens the impact of this poem, tragedy is beauty in itself

Agonizing words. So much despair in the lines. I can imagine the pain and hopeless helpless feeling of the writer.

\'Even though you may not love me.
I can’t stop myself from loving you\'..
(this, be that cruelty of Cupid\'s
arrows
piercing blood, form the outset)..
so much impassioned honesty
in these words, dear poet
so , so relatable
thank you!

Great analogy on life with its ups and downs, darts and frowns. That\'ll teach her for marrying the other guys.

Eye of the Day
L. B. Mek said:

Mata Hari
as an icon of duplicitous, History
is a character I\'m very intrigued by
not merely, for her exotic
noir - fairy tale, life story
but more
for her potential, as an anchor
to a study of such a complex Era
she successfully, manoeuvred within..
If I had the opportunity
I would start with her MacLeod, surname
and weave, a four decade biopic
that would encompass
everything from Nietzsche to Rasputin
From Edith Cavell
to Yoshiko Kawashima
and all the murky undertones
and bright highlights, in-between...
(thanks for sharing, dear Poet
a wonderful change of pace
and an informative, read
thank you!)
please forgive my self-indulgent little tangent

This is what happens when you keep a guy waiting. (Girls, take note.)
This is my sort of bar, it\'s like real education unfurling in front of you.
