No Rules for All

Neville

No Rules for All

 

Here,

where there are

no rules

anything goes ..

Today though

I wonder,

if I dared to rest

my head

against your gold

ankle chain ..

You, might let me

place it there ..

Time

and time again

my friend ..

Since here where

there are

no rules at all ..

It seems

that anything goes

but oh’ so

very slow indeed ..

Except for

time itself which

marches

on regardless ..

        Dignity, self respect and respect for others seem to be in the past. Mind you I like the idea of the ankle chain bit!

          KP rests her head against my gold ankle chain. She's conned me into thinking that's what it is, but it's a ball and chain really. lol.

          • Neville



            maybe she's trying to drown thee ..

            Rules sometimes are made to be broken, and sometimes depending on the situation we should be able to move or pause time. thought provoking my dear Nev. ❀️

            • Neville

              • orchidee

                A sexy write? Swoon!
                A little repartee (bit of French there. lol) and banter with friends, but never any 'excitement' with Fido around. I will put him in the back garden a while.

                • Neville



                  sounds like a plan

                  • orchidee

                    Sometimes no rules is just a mirror reflection of no one rules. Thanks N for the deep thoughts.

                    • Neville

                      I'd vote for no rules.... in certain strictly defined situations....

                      • Neville

                        Love and time, the two things that can't be bought, but only spent, One "marches on," the other waits for the right time.
                        I think you've said a lot here in a few words. - Phil A.

                        • Neville

                          Brilliant!
                          (be it that red string of fate
                          or golden chains of chance
                          linking our ankles to paths
                          we were destined to share
                          with those, we eventually
                          come to realise
                          mean more to us, than those
                          we've been conditioned
                          to think of as family
                          forcedly..
                          yet
                          once free, of our inherited
                          influences
                          it's so clear to see, we
                          get to choose, who we share
                          our life with
                          making the most of our
                          ephemeral lives, unapologetically)

                            so much more than merely muchly appreciated Mek .. N
