The Preciseness of Your Approximations
I thought you should know
I have always been
amazed at the preciseness
of your approximations ..
I even once thought you were
a tiny bit special maybe ..
But since you seem to wear
your heart on your sleeve,
I shall leave these words
here for you to stumble upon
sometime later perhaps ..
And where for now, they may
at least rest easy and neat
and for always set firm, upon this
magnificently understated
and otherwise seriously empty page ..

Love this poem Neville life is based on approximations, educated guesses, hunches you may say. A basketball shot, a cricket swing of the bat, the stock market, a word in a poem, a ventured kiss and sometimes it is a while before we see the results. A wistful and wonderful write that takes a time to soak in. a fave my friend
Way too kind, kind sir .. thanks loads .. Neville

Nicely written, you had me thinking about this poem! Your poem explores the complexity of human emotions and relationships, particularly the tension between admiration and distance. It reflects the nuances of affection for someone perceived as both special and emotionally reserved.
Thank you so very much indeed ma'am .. and please don't be offended but I think your current profile image/avatar is strikingly beautiful & almost the spitting image of a previous lover .. Kindest regards, Neville 🌻
Excellent write!
Bless you my fine literary friend .. Neville
Brilliant
Blimey .. Cheers brother T .. Neville
