Let’s Talk About the Weather For Once

Neville

Let’s Talk About the Weather for Once

 

Yes, the weather is being kind to us ..

But then,

there is talk of snow too my love ..

And yes, of course

I spoke to the moon and to the stars

again last night ..

As indeed, I always do

and for a moment then, the sky was

filled, with my words only

and which seemed to form a prayer ..

Now though,  

I sit here, sipping strong black coffee

and smiling vaguely

in what feels to me, like your direction ..

        A warm moment of weather talk before that vague smile in a lover's direction means she knows there is heat in the air despite any forecast of snow - -- and methinks t'will grow even hotter when weather's forgotten...................x

        • Neville



          we all need something to look forward to .. don't we Fay .. x

            Wonderful words Neville, when I got up before dawn this morning the moon was shining brightly starting my day with wonder.

              Me too, glorious isn't it with just a touch of frost on the hill but with the sun clearly not too far behind πŸ™‚

              'and smiling vaguely'
              that smile, blossoming
              from a heart, in a most
              contemplatively melancholic
              frame
              of remembrance and appreciation
              ..
              for those who know, Hyung
              these words will hit home
              deeper, than any love song...
              (Brilliant!)

              • Neville



                Bless you Mek

              • Rocky Lagou

                I adore this!

                The way in which you breathe something special into each of your poems is amazing.

                I feel like at the heart of small talk is always the weather. It's what comes most natural to us. But sometimes those small conversations can lead to a lifetime of love and admiration for one another. A seemingly trivial interaction can hold the key to a rich and intimate bond.

                  what a delightful thing to say Rocky .. many thank you's my friend .. so very much appreciated πŸ™‚

                • hzugman

                  Very nice, Nev.

                  • Neville



                    thank you kindly hzugman for the visit and subsequent formulation .. both are magnificently appreciated πŸ™‚

                  • James Stinson

                    Neville, thoroughly impressed with your body of work.
                    Delightful and inspiring.

                    • Neville


                      You are far too generous sir James .. but I would indeed be writing huge porky pies if I suggested even for a micro second that I didn't both like and appreciate it .. Many thanks .. Neville πŸ™‚
