The Horse With the Red Umbrella
Two worlds linked perhaps
but only one
precious moment recalled ..
Pray do take
notes tho’ since the horse
with the red
umbrella, is much more than
just closely
juxtaposed to yours truly ..
And my word
how it does sadden me so
when I drive
or I choose to stroll with my
limp along that
famously narrow causeway,
with those spires
firmly in situ, all around us ..
As indeed, I do now
solemnly turn to face yet one
more green county
with my freedom intact and I
no longer fear
looking back over my shoulder ..
She was always,
such a loser any day and anyway ..

Good write N.
Cheers Steven ..
Enjoy your trip Neville.
I'm sure hoping it can go as planned thanks Michael .. & all the very best to you good sir .. Neville
And to you too Neville, enjoyed the read
Thank you .. Have a great one Okay .. 😎👍
You are very welcome
Ah, such a farewell and by and by…
Catch you early in the new year .. Take care and have a swell time throughout 2025 .. Neville
Catcha!
A note of sweet sadness, but that is not the proper word, it also contains a feel of satisfaction and reluctant completion. Complex as all relationships are it paints the picture well. Have a great trip and I will anxiously await your return
Many thanks indeed my friend .. I did not think I would still be here now but my wife's discharge did not take place .. fingers crossed for tomorrow .. Take care while I am hopefully away & here's me wishing you & your clan all the very best for 2025 .. Neville
And a happy new year to you and your wife
Excellent write Nevilie
many thanks Tony .. have a great 2025
You're welcome
I love the title, and for some reason felt compelled to google it. What I found was a delightful little history of the teashop with the same name. It seems to speak of the constancy of a place, contrasted with the inconsistancy of people. I love the way you have framed this, beautifully done.
I was hoping maybe a few more might have delved thus .. tis not too far from my haunting grounds .. thank you Bella & then some .. Neville
Good write, Neville Don't look back something might be gaining.
Cheers Jez .. unfortunately I'm no further going than I was yesterday .. my wife's discharge has been delayed .. any tips on how to prevent a cruise ship from leaving besides making out like a hurricane ..
I am glad your wife has been discharged from hospital, that is good news indeed! Also glad you two are going on what sounds to be a much needed vacay. I will also try to enjoy 2025 but, with that said, I do hope you are not away the ENTIRE year! 🤣 I will miss reading you, but wish you both well on your time away together, my friend! 🙏❤️
Unfortunately, she has not yet been discharged .. yesterday was a fiasco .. a whole day on red alert & now wasted .. if it happens today then we might still make it but thanks for the good wishes which I hope you know are reciprocated .. take care and ta for the thumbs up mate .. Neville
Hope all will be well with your wife and your time off.
Still under starters orders Bella but thank you, I am keeping my 🤞for the all clear later this mane .. 😎
Superb work, my friend.
Thank you kindly Thomas .. Neville
May your freedom always be with you Neville.
Andy
