My mother always told me
if you can't say something nice-
say nothing at all.
Thus...No Comment!

Jeans with holes
leave girls disposed
to show more leg
which men extol
at least that is
what I've been told
the more the leg
the merrier our souls.

"with lashings of chillies
and loo roll on ice"...

what does this mean?

Is it a Brit expression
or something you took
from a highway billboard
or a recipe book?
?

Haha Trev - I kept meaning to do one anyway ?

Yeh, I like the first one best too, but thought I'd be a smart-arse and cycle through the seasons, keeping in sight of the prompt ?

Also - I can't decide between this last line, or

'in bleak midwinter'

Whaddaya reckon?

Hello Trevor, liked your Brexit villanelle. As you seem to know a lot more about poetry than I do, could you have a peek at my poem 'Regrets', which I intended as a villanelle, and tell me if I was right about the form, at least?

Thanks, Jennifer

Thank you Trevor..I really appreciated your comment on Innocent Sold..we live in a society which brushes so much under the carpet. The reality shows do not help. Some want to live in a bubble of ignorance.. If we don't say it, it isn't happening. We can all marry a celebrity. Unfortunately most young peoples reality in these difficult times is a far cry from that....sorry Trevor I can't help recalling my own youth where jobs were plentiful, no zero hour contracts, and a future was more than a forlorn hope..?

Ooo did you? I'm in love with the west myself - heading back over in August, cannot WAIT. Dublin to Doolin then down to Kerry.

Peat fires are so damned HOT aren't they?! ? And the smell, mmm. Hey, I'd love to read the one you wrote for 'Scent Memories'. Perhaps PM it to me? Did you ever see the one I wrote about walking the Cliffs of Moher? I was out of my mind with panic that I'd hurl myself over the edge - it's a 'thing' for some people, and I try to avoid high places mostly, but this was so utterly heartbreakingly beautiful that I forced myself to do it. Amazing exhilarating experience, and I wrote one of my best poems ever afterwards.

Thanks Trevor, glad you liked 'Killing the Piano'. You're right about the digital stuff - there's nothing wrong with them (I've got a few keyboards lying around my flat!) but there's so much more to a real piano than that.

Hi Trevor :)

Thanks for your comments on 'The Has-Been Poet'. It was just my attempt of writing my way out of the old writer's block :)

Welcome to WOL. There must have been a lot of talent bubbling away for years just beneath the surface, a talent for acute observations, and a way with words, in whatever job you were in.
