The poem was written with compassion and I felt it .

I love this! What a great read on Veteran’s Day!
Thank you for posting this.
My grandpa was a WWII Army veteran so this hits home.

Tim, this really took me into Elsie’s heart and what she meant to our wounded men. I could feel the emotions here and the depth of your remembrance for her and the men she gave solace in their darkest hours. Truly a great poem.

This is great writing Nev.
I loved how descriptive it is and how it connects with the soul.
How we all try to live for something greater while time wastes away.

Enjoy Miami!

Neville, this poem was an artistic and soulful masterpiece. I felt the aging poet contemplating his life and its direction. Truly a grandly composed art poem that took me to places my heart often finds itself as I grown older. This resonates with me like a jazz song.

This personally touches me deep, words I need to listen and hear today…

“I don’t just look and see,
but I watch
and I savour and I learn
and then I try
to hoard what I find”

How beautifully wise this is, I want to try and be like this always but I seem to fail sometimes, you wrote it with genuine and true feelings. another sailing another journey another experience 🌞 🌊 and don’t worry about me I won’t fly anywhere, I will be still here 😁

I just got the thumbs up to travel which was touch and go for a while because of my bad chest but now that I’ve got the go ahead, its all systems go .. I travel to London tomorrow & then get a flight to Miami .. from there I jump ship and head for South America eventually ending up in Chile .. Isn’t it amazing what lengths some folk will go for a bit of inspiration 😎.. I’m so glad You found this one .. You reading this particular little scribble is an honour in itself .. Oh’ and just for the record, we all fail sometimes and some of us more than others .. and also for the record, I do worry about You & wish You were were elsewhere, somewhere safe & maybe with me .. My goodness, would we ever stop writing .. Take care while I am away my very dearest G Girl & don’t let them get you down .. Your mate, Me .. Neville 😎🌻💛⭐🌟👍
