Groundhog Day
Do you remember
My love
When we both once
Thought
Thirty-seven was old
….
When the end of the
World
Was more than just
The end
Of another long road ..
…
Well let me share with
You this
My very first liver spots
Arrived here today ..
…
And from the visible
Signs of such
A blemish or bruise
To corruption
And my eventual decay
…
Just be sure to note
All the facts in a book
For there was once a
Point of beauty and truth
…
Hidden discretely
Somewhere on the way
Do you remember
Arching and aching
Forgiving forsaking
…
Those were moments
Too good to be true
All that
Pulsing and probing
Exploring and loving
…
Plus giving and taking
It feels like
I’ve been here before
How does it feel to you

If she has as much about her, character wise, as you do sir then... daft question.... and from me a ridiculous comment for she, would have to have as much depth as your good self otherwise there would be no 'she'.
... I don't care!! I know what i meant. LOL
... I like to think I do too ... bless ya DA this felt like a long time in the making ... hope you n those you hold dear are both safe and well sir ........................ N
I expect she does remember. And should I meet her? lol.
Thanks Orchidee ........................... if we ever meet again, I shall ask her for ya ...................... drop us your mobile number though just in case ......................................

If she's still there, then she dost remember for she has similar experiences to share with you.
..................... a shared perspective and true .... bless you my friend ... stay safe n well
If she doesn't remember then she's not worthy - but I bet she does.
Oh' ye of too much faith .................... aint memory a funny old thing eh' Michael .. I could have sworn she was blonde .... but I'm gonna thank ya just for the hell of it sir ... stay well, safe n good .. Oh' n seasons best to you n yours ...

And to you and yourn.
The passing of things and of those held so dear makes love and togetherness even more needed as this tribute to seeing the truth of comings and goings artfully discloses my friend. Feelings of Déja Vu become clearer when moments of "pulsing and probing" are virtually over - - maybe. Another depth here of your avid perception and so impressively well expressed.........x
Thanking you comes easy and often dear Fay ... and long may it remain so my fine literary friend and poet ... x
I'd rather not comment on how closely I identify with that work of yours - including, but definitely not only, the early lines relating to ageing...
Thanks for for being so succinct there . Any more and this post might have been very different....
Regards Dave
thanks brother, its good to know that you aint on your own, innit ................. a most welcome and much appreciated stop over Dave,, cheers...
Neville
Those memories are with you Neville and they will be with her as well, she may well feel the same.
Andy
................................. Bless ya my friend .. I do so love your optimism .. am smiling BIG again ...
