Job Lot of Biro’s
We rarely see each other now
And
On those occasions when we do
I always feel the need to write down
Every single word you say
The way you look smile and laugh
The way you push jab or slap
When I have either pleased or offended you
I am often still writing
Long after you have said good-bye

Ooohh you've not offended me. Are ya still writing to me?! heehee. It need not be goodbye, just au revoir - bit of Spanish there. I'm good at languages, don't ya know!
I will take your word and raise ya....
Take care out there Orchidee & stay both safe and well..
Neville
I hope so too, but I am quite sure there will be many more casualties and that this monster should not be underestimated.... Neville 🙂
Well penned (groan)... Well constable Neville, it's all done on video tape/memory chip in the interview room now.
Why does modern technology rob life of romance.... or is it just me?
No my friend, it is not just you.. Maybe we should form that cult after all .... Bless ya my friend... Now listen... Just you take care out there and stay both safe and well … Okay 🙂
Neville,
Love the title and the message of your poem.
The first time I saw the word ‘Biro’ was in high school in a required reading assignment.
Very interesting.
Stay safe.

Neville 🌻
You’re very welcome!
Love is so hard to shelve when time was it glittered with golden dreams --- another tear-jerking read Nev and so clearly revealed that need to note down every nuance to keep and read over again - - it surely takes lots of biros does the sight of a one-time love ........... x

Yes hearin'ya loud and clear mon ami and am keeping to schedule on what where and when and with whom --- yes this is a serious health hazard my friend and same back at-ya - you betta tek care and stay well too....... x

Great work Neville
Thanking you Michael sir...
I trust you remain safe and well, as do those you love and hold dear...
Neville
Thanks Neville - yes in constant touch and my son has just dropped off meds and 'food parcel' - so nice to see his beaming face even if I couldn't give him a hug. And you?
Could be worse.. a lot worse.. My son is currently staying with us having had to close his restaurant... daughter still working on the front line in A & E.. I had surgery to eye cancelled... We just have to knuckle down and get on as best we can.. I think it is going to get a whole lot worse before it starts to consider letting up...
Am waiting to hear whether my services are required at local mental health trust since all sorts of anxieties are going through the roof... Stay well..
Neville
straight to my favorites
Thank you Amon, I am both honoured and grateful for the visit.. Stay safe
Neville
We all do that and in my case I need bottles of ink for my quill.
Andy
You see ya moved on from papyrus then Andy..... Cheers for the chuckle and of course the visit. Stay safe and well my friend...
