Mid Summer Meadow

Neville

Mid Summer Meadow

 

You ma’am

Were one of those near misses

Now history

Long since consigned to memory

But a perfect picture

Captured

Dancing slow

Mid-summer meadow slow and

Perfect

The sound of children laughing

Seed heads bursting all around you

Tall grasses

If only you had not been quite so ..

Well you know

We could be there now, just saying.

      Picture-perfect this rendering of such a near miss Nev which many of us can surely relate to - another scene of romantic memory that serves as a taste of "what might have been." A poignant write..........x

        reading you is a delight... thanking you is like a reflex Fay... virtually impossible to stop or delay when triggered...

        • Fay Slimm.

          Snap - same too at this end -- but thanking you gladly for all your valued thank yous my friend................x

          The moment you called her ma'am
          I feared the worst
          Nicely done as always

          • Neville


            Bless you peto... much appreciated ..

            Absolutely delightful. I write with a broad grin upon my face and a chuckle in my throat.
            Such joy of memories and the games we play upon them.
            A great tribute to love and attraction.

            • Neville


              Cheers DA.. I shall drink to love and attraction this very eve and one for you too sir...

                  We all had near misses - some of them we may still miss.
