goodbye robin

arqios


Notice of absence from arqios
πŸ•Š πŸ™πŸ» see you all in June! πŸ™πŸ»πŸ•ŠοΈ

'always and forever'
said one such bear to
threadbare pounding,
rediscovering vow of
innumerable days 


spent together, two


gather together two
distinct awarenesses
both being made one,

in immeasurable ways,
. . . always and forever

      An anniversary? Or do we speak of childhood here that we carry always with us? A lovely cryptic metaphor that I have to admit could go many ways for my scattered brain

      • arqios

        Indeed, multi-occasionally set, in general of human connections and loyalties. Thanks kindlyπŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š

                This poem speaks to me of childhood. A rite of passage kind of thing. Hopefully most of us have wonderful childhood memories. Some of them become bitter-sweet as we grow older, for those innocent days are now gone! We still have the memories though, and we should cherish them!

                • arqios

                  Yes! That’s quite at the core of this poem; at least it’s major inspiration. My heartfelt gratitude πŸ™πŸ» πŸ•Š

                  Sometimes it’s hard to tell.

                  always and forever

                  Such very touching thoughts and your poem transferred me back to childhood days and promises made to forever friends. And then we grow up and forever takes on a new meaning. For some, it’s until something better comes along. Call me a cynic why don’t chΓ£. I still believe there can be happy ever afters though. I have known many that have worked out. Your poem is a fairy story and I love it.

                  • arqios

                    Not calling you anything of the sort, Cassie! Just listening to you speak πŸ—£ my thoughts, remember I’m a cynical optimist. Love the possibility of happy ever afters though. I guess the fairy tale is a staple form of literature that has never left. Thank you kindlyπŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š

                    Lovely done, arqios,Your poem "always and forever" conveys the profound bond and commitment shared between two entities, likely representing lovers or close companions. It explores themes of unity, enduring love, and the intertwining of lives over time.

                      Hmm. Mum having read and reread countless times Winnie the Pooh and etc until the tales are entrenched within me, I even bought the book on my own and retell the various tidbits from memory when occasion serves, and what is this farewell? Fascinating and intriguing in brevity with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy, thank you for sharing.

                        This is my life with Mary arqios, '..always and forever'.
