Always Singularly Noticed

Neville

Always Singularly Noticed

 

You are that single

big leaf on a

small bonsai tree ..

The one

that is always

first noticed ..

A forget-me-not

in a field

full of sunflowers ..

A phoenix

reborn in a

meteor shower ..

Under no

obligation

to follow rules or

religion ..

A wild card,

an enigma in the

wake

of a star burst ..

As free as a virus

shaped like

a porcelain vase

and filled full

of longing ..

A warm glow

in the aftermath

of our very own summit ..

        Should I 'get my coat' and 'get out more?' lol.

        Orchi, you are so deluded - It's me he's on about.... "Under no obligation to follow rules or religion .."

          Firstly .. if you are moulting Mr. O .. then the answer is yes .. and secondly, you are not the only one Dave 🐧

          • Doggerel Dave

            Who would have thought it? Thought I was, Doc. Can you help me?

            Beautiful metaphors and just plain a darn good read! "A forget-me-not in a field of sunflowers". Thats what I am. Something different in a sea of sameness. Great write!

              if a metaphor can't be beautiful once in a while, then what's a metaphor for .. but anyway, if I were you Christina, then I would try and jot down any ideas I had around the phrase 'something different in a sea of sameness' before someone else does .. 🐧

              • Christina8

                will do! Thanks for the advice!

              • Bella Shepard

                This is such a beautiful write dear friend. Wandering through this canvas of imagery, I can't help but get lost in it's "warm glow". This is such a fav!

                • Neville



                  I really can't thank you enough my friend and confess to being mighty relieved to see you here .. I seriously hope you are well ..

                  • Bella Shepard

                    Thank you dear friend for your concern. I'm here and well, just slowing down a bit. I've been battling a few knee problems and started allergy shots, but on the mend. Your friendship is so greatly appreciated, I can't imagine not being here. Take care and God bless!

                    Such true words Neville, we are all individuals that go our own way and have unique ideas.

                      what a serenading waterfall of eloquence, dear Poet supreme
                      'A wild card,
                      an enigma in the
                      wake
                      of a star burst ..'
                      I'm gonna borrow this one Hyung, maybe I'll get lucky
                      lol
