Just Another Take On Life
While the run up might
be different ..
The defining moment
will always be
remarkably the same ..
Some things tho
never change do they ..
Somehow,
they just become even
more indelible,
somewhere on the way ..

Good write N.
Write good then O ..
A poem which is open to much thought. Life and death. It doesn’t matter where we come from or what our journey is like, or whether we are rich or poor, we are all going to die. And as we age, inevitable thoughts of death, become more indelible. No escape for any of us. While I read these lines, my mind also travelled to your recent Crumbs poem. You always create much thought with your writing Neville. You stimulate the mind.
I am doubly honoured Cassie .. You sure know how to make an old fella's day .. Many thanks .. Neville
You are right Neville there are several ways of looking at things and as I looked at this poem I saw many but again you are right the outcome is always the same. No matter what we do death is the final word for one and all and this becomes indelibly clear as we grow older. Beautiful and probably not the intended interpretation but so be it.
I have great pleasure in awarding you a gold star my friend .. thanks for stopping by .. Neville
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
Great lines ..
Not mine...
Yes, sir. Excellent work.
Thanks Thomas .. Neville
In the end it is what it is. Great write N. 😉
But then you go and make it more than .. cheers AP .. NP
This applies to so many things all at once. It’s perfect. It’s confounding If I already wasn’t addicted to having you as a brother I’d be looking for petty reasons to not like you. So often I struggle to pinpoint instead of circling, and then you say something poignant about everything all at once in a mere 34 words. !!!
What an extraordinarily heart warming, encouraging and elsewise gratifying gift you have left here for me brother B .. I am absolutely delighted .. Thank you so very much .. Neville
i agree - some things keep changing, and some are the same..
good and thoughtful write
That's life for ya .. cheers N .. N
Intriguing words once more Neville. That journey in life can often repeat.
Andy
You can beat a drum, but you can't beat a bit of intrigue can ya now .. cheers A .. Neville
