The brief and yet wonderful two-week world, and repeated year on. No expectation of things others know. The main world is the inside of a box. Never known is never missed. The brighter side of things not taken. A great joy, ta muchly.

Always good to hear about new poetry nights. Best of luck with it.
I am sure there are lots of poets on here who are in your neck of the woods.
Now do woods have necks?
Have to debate the pros and cons of that.

Ward the gobshite will go into re-hab then have a series of radio and press interviews planned, his next (hurried) work will be a best seller and no doubt a Hollywood deal is being 'considered'. Hahaha
''Talent borrows, genius steals'' Wilde- that makes Ward a 'genius'?

How delightful. The gentleness of the description had me under its spell too and the way you change the tense of that phrase in the last line brings us right back to the present full circle. So romantic I wanted to say Ahhh! I hope there was a happy ending. xx
Comment is about Ode To A Long Lost Lover (blog)
Original item by Steve Higgins
Steve is obviously into higher mathematics.
The question that bothers me is whether we can accept as 2 words 'I'm resigning' which actually contains 3 words ( or remnants thereof)See I know my numbers up to 10 too but I never got to 20 - feet too smelly!
Anyway back to the ode. Well done Hugh I'd a feeling there was a gag in there somewhere but I didn't spot it beforehand. much giggling.xx

Brooke Bond indeed, Greg; they had a little landscape shaped album for you to stick them in. I googled it an attached a link on the blog. If you follow it up be prepared for a wonderful fulfilling feeling of nostalgia!

Many thanks for your comments on "Honduras", MC.
I googled those Brooke Bond cards and the bubblegum flags also. The link to the BB ones is above.
It was like seeing your best mate from the infant school again but without any embarrassment about what to say.
Somewhere in our brains I suppose we park these familiarities and the emotions associated with them.

Hi Dave, Thanks for stopping by and reading 'Ode to a long lost lover' I wrote it mostly in one go a few weeks ago and since then I've tinkered with it too much so its good to let it go.

The thing is, thats ten words for the elders and at a rate of two every seven years it must have took them a while to say that, unless they pooled their words together, say there were five of them saying two each . .
Made me laugh anyway, thanks Hugh!

I really like this Steve. There's an honesty and freshness about it. You seem to be still owning the young man you were and his optimism and sense of the newness of it all. Room for romance but not for cynicism despite seeing a lot of the world in the intervening years.
