Gooder than Good Even

Neville

Gooder than Good Even

 

When I am done here

I don’t want

you to regret that our

paths ever crossed

for but a moment in time ..

When I am done here

I want you to

sit back, to smile and

maybe relax

and to think to yourself ..

My word that was so much

better than fine

it was gooder than good

by a mile and a smile even ..

  • Fay Slimm.

    Naught can be gooder than memories of closeness between two like minds even for a few moments - regretting that would be an insanity - - or so methinks. - - Am loving your offering of pure neologism..........x

      fantabulous dear Fay ..................................... x

    • Paul Bell

      You can't get better than, gooder, maybe super gooder.
      I'll be spending my day now looking for neologisms and just being annoying to people.

      • Neville



        my goodliness my friend ......... thank you kind sir ... N πŸ™‚

        I'm still flinching at curiouser and curiouser but if betterest ever comes along i'm out of here.

        When something for us is 'gooder than good' then it tickles our ego to hope that it will be remembered as such by that person too. But it took your finesse to state it so well.

          you sir are tooly kind .. and let that be a lesson to ya .................................. N πŸ™‚

            Good write N. I've not met many neologisms myself. Does the Co-op sell them?! lol.

              or even gooder than that, dear Poet
              much, much
              gooder, than any level of good
              you realise..
              all we can do, is thank you
              for sharing your genius
              and gifting us, so much poetic
              enjoyment

                  "by a mile and a smile," and a half! Does that mean this is Neopoetic. Thoroughly enjoyed this one. Just to entertain for "a moment in time" is all we can expect. Great write. - Phil A.

                  • Neville


                    it really is so good to see you have been here my friend .. I seriously hope you are safe and well & thank you again Phil .. N

                    easy rhyme moment in time
                    creates a natural pause
                    even made me smile

                    • Neville



                      I am most grateful to you for visiting my friend .. thank you

                    • Rozina

                      Learnt another new word here, neologism. The most goodest of all? Thinking of all sorts of words now......

                      • Neville



                        that's fuuken great my friend, but just you be careful πŸ™‚

                      • Rocky Lagou

                        So so lovely! I'm definitely all for neologisms in poetry as I feel there are times when we just can't express what we want via regular speech. I've used them in the past and even seminal poets like Gwendolyn Brooks have also used them. Thanks for this amazing sentiment,

                        • Neville



                          You n me both Rocky ... maybe we should form a cult ................. many humungous thank you's πŸ™‚

                          That’s a bunch of intelligent lines
                          So witty dear Neville
                          Awaiting more neologisms to encounter
                          It got more gooder and gooder as I read more from you

                          • Neville



                            I am delighted that spiller alighted and left something delightful behind when she left .................. x

                            by a mile and a smile even ..β€˜ love that line ! ))

                            Some connections are so nice .. and so too are some memories .

                            Nicely expressed poem

                            • Neville
