    • Brilliantly penned, Neville. Like the layers my friend, excellent write. Appreciate you.

    • Oooh, now this one has a haunting, almost taunting feel to it. Leaves me wonder…are these mourning doves?

    • Bless you Willow .. maybe henceforth, I should call you Hawkeye .. You are certainly most astute ma’am .. Neville 🤍👍

    • This hits like an abandoned chapel breathing on its own. The spacing slows the reader down just enough to feel the echo, the hollow pride, the loneliness clinging to the walls. That last turn—the ghost of me by your side—is quietly devastating. You let atmosphere do the heavy lifting, and it works.

    • Haunting but also a soothing demeanor somehow. The ending caught me off guard obviously. It makes the read have a different angle, reading back. It’s a well done piece, Neville.

      • Thanks a million Styxian .. and please forgive this late acknowledgement I’ve been stuck in Newark NJ on my way back to England .. Neville

    • Strange how awareness changes and we see or feel things differently from one time to another, sometimes the message is cloud and clear, sometimes it’s gentle and blurry, but all of them are messages that we are not alone. I feel sadness and speration, yet I also feel how the speaker got and felt the message, found comfort within it and just wanted to get it through and sing it into words 🤍

    • I feel as if I have been promoted to something very special .. Bless & thank you dear Light💕

    The de facto US national motto "E pluribus unum" (Out of many, one) was changed by Congress in 1956 to the official 'In God We Trust'.Laughable that God's name is printed on all US currency when the Bible tells...

    • Powerfully penned, Peter. Excellent write my friend, also thanks for the history. Nicely done. Appreciate you.

      • Thanks Damian.

        I’m not American or a believer in God but the change in motto reflects the change in America.A country that once accepted the hungry,the tired,the persecuted now turns it’s back on them…..bet if they were billionaires they’d be welcomed with open arms.
        👍

        • Completely agree with you my friend. It almost foreshadows the Christian Nationalist movement going on in this country right now. America has turned heel. To use pro wrestling lingo. Appreciate you.
