Thank you Trevor and Po for the comments, I feel humbled by the feedback. Believe the storm is building - our love and compassion for others will win through....and as the Dalai Lama says this is what we need to make it through life, love and compassion. keep writing and keep believing....another world is possible.

Mark - I lived in Hayes Middx for half my life and often travelled from home to Hounslow via the Heathrow perimeter road. On one occasion around 1975 as I turned onto the road Concorde took off and the sight of it almost overhead took my breath away.

Thanks MC. The women of the North have other attributes. They are strong enough to pull a plough and can floor a horse with one punch. So if that’s what you want.....

Such a succint and beautifully woven rhythm. Well done, Eve. Like I said, each of your pieces is imbued with that extra 'oomph' most lack nowadays.

I applaud the effort.?

Make your enemy worthy of your argument. There's no credit or
gain in picking a fight with an "easy" target, least of all someone
whose vulnerability is there to see and recognise.

How intriguing when you're older
That behaviour becomes bolder
Disregarding the odd cold shoulder
Or the primly outraged scolder!
But I've heard it said of the north
That its womenfolk love to hold forth!

Dear All,

Thank you for your many comments on this poem. I wrote it this morning not long after climbing out of bed to greet another dreary day.

Comment is about Winter´s Doldrums (blog)

Original item by keith jeffries

This brings back a memory of my own.
TRUE -
I found a fiver at my feet
While walking slowly down our street
No one had seen it lying there
Except for me with downward stare
Slowly navigating between two sticks
And carefully acquired mobility tricks!
With considered care I leaned down -
And must have resembled a circus clown,
But my fingers stretched beyond my eyes
And finally seized the abandoned prize.
And whilst I sipped from victory's cup,
The best reward by far was standing up!!

"Surviving is not good enough sweetheart." - that's a powerful and quotable line. Keep it with you,
Too many of us do just that, don't try to make a difference, anywhere.

Gentle and persuasive; one is left with a question. Is the clue in the first line, is the missing 'g' a freudian slip? And I've forgotten what Mother Goose stands for.

There is a great music video by Moby that more or less says the same thing about technology. I like to believe, be it all optimistically that all that is with technology will turn full circle

Comment is about Christmas Eve Miracle (blog)

Original item by Cynthia Buell Thomas

Reminds me of the (true story) of the proprietor of an arcade, in Newcastle-on-Tyne, who cemented a line of new 1£ coins to the pavement of the street outside - making a trail to the arcade.
1) They disappeared the next day - but it was all in the local paper.
2) The Corporation sent him a bill for repairs to the pavement.
3) Don't ask me for any details, it was probably 30 years ago. But I saw it myself and so did the person who dug out the cash. No it wasn't me, I was working in an adjacent office.

My pomes are as True as the sky is blue, but my storys however are imaginary' yet amazing..

Understood loud and clear but id still avoid out of pure fear.
Your work has amazed me from our first meet.
The eyes they are open and absorb more than ones feet..
I wait with excitement because one can feel the enlightenment.
With out the drug's , I shall not be frightened.
Go and finish that lovely work po
And take most of us out of our low ?

The old soul knows too much....seems reliving the stories in your poems. Could it be this close, or could it be so true....factual and real it be...but definitely a great mastery n art in writing...?

One would say I am an old soul, came to earth so many times to absorb lifes information in order to help others.
especially the lost...
I lived a life full of story's only the old could tell..
A young heart and a body that does not match but the knowledge to be a humans plaster patch ?
