Leave the View Behind

Neville


Notice of absence from Neville

Good Mane to one and all .. I just thought between clearing the drive of snow and trying to set off for the airport I better let those that might be interested know of my proposed leave of absence .. Off to the Algarve for a couple of weeks .. Say safe n well and catch ya upon my eventual return .. AGT's Neville :)

Leave the View Behind

 

Despite being

Whispered  

Her words

Were  

Each heard

And

Though each

Was heard

Clearly  

They each

Sounded absurd

 

Since

We have but

A moment

Yet time to

Lament

There is no

Need to

Linger upon

A love

Now long spent

 

So from a

Room filled

With mirrors

And the

Sweetest of

Scents

A sea view

To die for and

The very

Cheapest of

Rents  

 

It is time now

To reflect

She said

Pointing a

Finger at me

Oh’ and on

Your way out

Be sure to

Close the door

And leave

The view behind

      Ice cold some women can be!
      best forgotten in the process of finding brighter days and warmer weather.

          I think you know the answer to that... today is actually the anniversary of my one and only period of homelessness... a very, very long time ago now.. Cheers
