Upon a Time Once

Neville

Upon a Time Once

 

Upon a time once

my word how we loved

Aye, didn’t we just ..

 

And with never a thought for

those moments we lost

Nor for gratuitous lust ..

 

Upon a time once

my word how we loved

Aye, didn’t we just ..

 

Though with never

a thought for the

consequences of such

 

Whether borrowed, or lent

to us, in that moment

it was all time well spent ..

 

Upon a time once

my word how we loved

Aye, didn’t we just ..

        'Regardless
        of whether, borrowed or lent
        To us in that moment
        it was time, well spent'
        'Upon a time
        once, we had everything
        didn’t we: just ..'
        (my melancholy, has a new muse
        its in the white
        of your poetry's capacity, to soothe)
        I'm a bona fide, fan
        for just, such a reason
        my oh, so talented friend!

          Simple but full of reverie. You've caught the true magic of writing few words but saying so much more here Neville.

          • Neville

            A fine write Neville.
            Is this any relation a poem 'Pon a time'?!
            Note to self: this is very 'sad' of me, I know. Ain't I got better things to do, than looking for missing 'u's?

            • Neville



              No Mr. O no relation .. the only relationship between the two is at that juncture where your synapse is bridged with a sprinkling of positively charged pixie dust that makes you assume there might be .. ta tho' for enquiring 🙂

              Love is a multifaceted experience. It can be very complex; but not so much at a young age. No worries to be had until…

              As I read your words, my musings have been interrupted with a sudden thought…so much is being said with just a few words; hence the tsunami.

              Thank you for sharing.

              Laura🌻

              • Neville



                you can beat an egg & a drum, but you just can't be a tsunami can ya ..... Thank you so much my friend for considering 'Upon a Time Once' .................... 🙂

                Neville 🌻

                    Tongue Twisted, once upon a time, imprinted in my mind and heart, but this is no fairy tale, just genuine feelings and words! Smilez
