Flames of nostalgia in my stomach
I fight my anxiety
yearning to be home
I cannot remember
the last time I saw you
your sea of lights but a memory
as I sit here in the dark, alone
London, I love you
your stars half shadowed
by grey river, cloud in sky
shining through brief moments
I would gladly walk
two thousand barefoot miles
just to see you no bags, just pride
holding you in my heart with a smile
my feet pounding the rhythm
of light reflecting rain-splashed streets
I know I am with you
you are always with me
someday soon
I will be back
In the heart of you.

Teddy I feel your longing for your home. There is a feeling of loss in this poem. The pool of the dirt from which we were born, his magnetically strong. Find memories of the past drawers, as if they were the currents in the sea . “Your sea of lights But a memory “ A beautiful line. I feel your longing. Hopefully you will see home soon. Nicely written friend.
Awe thank you dearest sorrenbarret, I'll go next year of my shillings grow. lol 🤣 🌹 thank you my dear friend. 💜
Might have changed by the time you get there....I may have mentioned...... before....60's and 70's London......
But I do understand, Teddy.
Yeh, I'm in no rush right now, maybe I'll even wait for oasis to split up again too 🌈 thanks Dave. 🌹
🤣Some of your finishes are purlers (not just this one) and don't always get appreciated , so I'll appreciate this one.... ( PS: I've just looked up 'purler' to be sure 'cos I half thought it meant shiny precious thing, but it doesn't...but the shiny etc is wot I meant....if that makes sense)
A compliment ? From Dave, .......................I'm sorry I fainted for a minute. 🤣
A faint...hang on... let's set the alarm... one minute... OK...I can faint now.... l...O...L...!!!...where have all my emojis gone???
For you and you alone They are invisible ones only for the over 18's 🤣
Wot? I'm over 18? Nobody told me!!!
No, you are younger than 18 lol see you still can't see my emojis. ...
Wonderful nostalgic words Teddy.
Andy
