Brings it back for me too, Nat. (I was probably at uni with your granddad).
One small issue over the 10am time, though. I don't think I ever got up at that time of night. In fact I was quite resentful that I couldn't set my alarm for after 12 noon. A 2pm alarm, for instance, went off at 2am.

I'm glad these are posted here, particularly the 3rd, 8th, 12th, 23rd, 41st, and 64th. I wouldn't have seen them otherwise. One point, if i may; would you consider changing 'poetry' to 'poem' in the last line of the 44th entry? It would then echo 'poem' in the first line, and scan better.

I have scored some notable successes with the Almighty, Graham, but he's been a bit too busy lately for my petitioning. And I would agree I don't seem to fit the mould of verger as others do.
Natalie, this is a really interesting theosophical question. I hold the principle of personal responsibility quite dear so your thoughts on Divine Determinism are a bit of a challenge. I suppose I can legitimately take the position that God has imbued me with the capacity to decide (or forget) ie he given me the choice of being conscientious or a Dozey get. (Assuming, that is, I believe in God).

Thank you for your comment Michelle. Writing seams to be the best outlet for me. Unfortunately my muse always comes from heartbreak or disappointment. I really enjoyed your poem 'Holding Hands' ...I can relate to that also.

Thank you for your comments. They are much appreciated. Graham, I understand completely. I did get quite lazy towards the end. Poetry is something i just enjoy and use as an outlet, so i appreciate any constructive criticism which may benefit my writings in the future.

Nat, thank you for your comment and for sharing that poem. I really enjoyed reading it.

I will be sure to check out both of your works too.

I think I'm in a similar place to where you were when you wrote this. For me the "grip" is not his fault, and has been there no matter the distance or the time apart, the last line hits home to me - though I would type "must" in capitals, bold and underline it several times.

The comparisons between that bloody candle and our season are not lost on me JC. I hope you've been saying a few for our boys for next season. I hadn't realized that you were such a devout soul. I will read your wonderful profanities with a different eye in future.

regards,

Graham (the hopeful)

Clever the way you have woven the fencing terms into this love-spat themed piece Michelle, and you still have sabre and foil to play with too.
