Once Upon a Freckled Cheek
I think it only
fair to say
my most recent
rainbow moment
began
the very second
I started to trace
the gentle
upward sweep
of her
barely parted lips
with a
fallen feather …
Yet, so
very lightly set
against
a freshly freckled
cheek
In what was
to become
the first smile of
our very newest
day together ………. x

Delightful. I'm jealous.
How do you pack so much into short lines?
thank you so very bloomin much my friend .. what a super sentiment you have shared with me this sunny mane ...
Thrilling as ever your best "rainbow moment" with I suspect a new family member.......... such a tender-packed bouquet of poetic wealth to keep and remember forever - - - or maybe the verse recalls another time of first smiles when a different amour struck afresh -- - - I love how the last line ends ........x
......... how kind you are and truly ... the latter indeed strikes a chord ... but between you n me ... I had me cords well n truly tied a long time ago 🙂
this was scarily reminiscent
of a crisp clear, cherished memory
I keep close
in those corridors of our heart's
where Time, can't blemish the sanctity
of a moment that exists
to reaffirm our tethers: to existence, itself...
utilising sumptuous imagery, my friend
a wonderful read
... made my day too then so ya did ........ cheers my friend
I might have met some of these fine gals, with notes in my Little Red (?) Book.
But were they too much for me?! lol.
.... indeed you may have .... but I suspect unlikely, given the fact you can still write almost coherently

To tell more would be to spoil it, I think, Neville. Best leave it right there, as you so carefully did.
......................................... thank you Dave
May that smile be forever there Neville.
Andy
... Let's hope so ... cheers Andy
