These Words Have Nothing to Do With the Weather
Although you
may yet
turn, or indeed,
still run
away and try
to hide
behind the
unfurled folds,
of your
faulty umbrella ..
I hereby
assign a mere
lifetimes
guarantee that
I shall for
always hear,
feel, taste,
smell and see
you smiling ..
Full on, that is
and through
the very many
tangled beards
and veils ..
Those, which
now line
the path on both
sides of this,
your most recent
of sainted
departures ..
And although
I should
not blame you,
for the weather
darling ..
I know that in
all honesty ..
I most surely do
and for
so many other
things, besides ..

The weather seems hazy and a bit shady-yet you still make it the most interesting read, poet friend…

Well, it's the full moon 🌚....it highlights emotions that need healing, and things we need to release!! Happy Wednesday!!!
indeed, have a brill Wednesday and I aint talkin fish neither ...................... 🐟🐟🐠🐟💙

Good write N.
I say this to KP:' Not now, KP, I've got a headache; or 'Not now, KP, it's raining - though we are indoors!' Any excuse to not...... TMI (Too Much Info) to tell you more! lol.
absolutely .. save it for the men in white coats .. 👍
I see an image of a love that once was, peeping in and out again,. I often wonder why people are cruel when it comes to love, I have come somewhat to the conclusion it's pure selfishness with an ugly ego mixed in. lol 💖🤣 sorry to go on dear boy!
neva a problem .. my absolute pleasure entirely .. ❤️
Some folks change with the weather, some are sunny all the time, others live under a cloud. Then, there are the realists, who get snowed, get sunburnt, or carried away on winds of promise.
This poem, it seems to me, is about a relationship that is on and off, again and again. Perhaps a stormy one, where she brings the rain. Enjoyed it. - phil A.
it seems you have us weighed up .. gonna start calling you Hawkeye Phil .. thanks a million my friend .. Neville
And now some words that do have something to do with the weather - sun, rain, wind, whatever ya fancy! lol.
It's educational on 'ere, as I've said!
Well, I'm smiling! A beautifully penned write! x
make my day why don'tcha 💜
Love is such a tangled web, that if we had the power to lay straight, every strand, would we? It's the unpredictibility that keeps us on our toes, as does the weather. Beautifully crafted and a joy to read dear Nev. Wishing you fair skies!
fair skies always do it for me .. thanks for visiting & for those words of sapience & insight .. Neville
'feel, taste,
smell and see
you smiling ..
Full on, that is'
(reading your pearls of poetic wisdom
my cherished friend
is like having a conversation
with someone who has known us a long time
you imbue so much relatable accessibility
and versions of a past, we somehow recognise,
allowing us to delve deep in your ink and excavate
our very own private answers
to questions, we would otherwise
would still be happy to keep repressed
pretending, we didn't know they were there...)
thank you!
I dont think they can possibly get much better than that brother Mek .. thank you most kindly ..
Neville
‘ faulty umbrella ‘ makes me think maybe she hasn’t enough protection around her .. and that perhaps it ‘ rains on her too much.. she sounds a bit like a sad pained person maybe .. who isn’t in the sun enough lol
