This brought back all the good old memories to my mind, I liked the way it ended, reminded me of the urge that we schoolmates had to have a little more fun before the bell rang out, somehow very applicable to life as well - have a little more fun and live a little more before the bell rings out!
Another gem, Graham!

A poem composed through serious observation. I enjoyed the first stanza which described the vesture of the bird. Very imaginative.
Thank you for this,
Keith

Original item by Larisa Rzhepishevska
I wanted to convey a kind of sickness requiring immediate action similar to that which a human experiencing a medical emergency might need.
Like most of my thoughts there is no answer just questioning. I don't necessarily intend to suggest our planet is in its death throes, I have limited comprehension of the crisis we may be in...only that there seems to be something out of sync with patterns of climate and geological behaviour. I inform myself by listening to scientists with opposing views and pay attention to their evidenced conclusions.
I disregard social media and those corporates with vested interests. Also those who glibly pass everything off as exclusively cyclical, everything dies some day, one day.
Irrespective, thank you for your reading if you passed by.
David.

The dogs barking
maybe seeing
a cat
telling all
his pals
waking up
those that
want to
silently dream
soon to
sleep again.😎

If any doubt existed about the self-obsession over public interest
that infests modern political life, then this example should
serve to focus the mind. These lines are a timely jolt.

Your poem reflects the bizarre and shabby nature of this strange transaction, Steve. Who's next? Liz Truss?

A stellar poem, Nadia. Haunting, sweet, and (for me ) a comforting conclusion about a dog's grounding presence. Really enjoyed reading this and like Graham I read it several times.

Hi, Keith! I enjoyed reading your poem. I want to say that you are not alone in your thoughts. When I was young I thought that life was endless and I had a lot of time ahead. Adulthood was remote, Regards, Larisa
