These Are The Days

I really enjoyed this Magic, I love the line, 'That is a secret of a secret' I think the simplicity here makes it so,so beautiful :)

Beeme xx

Thank you, Beeme! That's one of my favourite lines too ;)

You are truely one of those people who are able to
bring your reader right into your work. I was almost
there watching you, I could see the bench, also
Big Ben. A great poem.

Thank you, Jenny! I'm glad this was a very visual poem for you ;)

I don't know what you call a series of poems, but I have enjoyed all of these so far. Love the last stanza

Hello, insert! Hmm - I'm not quite sure either. But 'series' or 'collection' sounds about right, and I'm glad you've enjoyed reading all of them! :)

Well done on getting the cherries, very deserved.
Jenny xxx

Thank you, Jenny! And thanks cherry fairies - you've made my day ;)

Magic xxx

You should always leave the last door ajar.
Sublime as always.
congrats on the cherry.

Thanks, Bruce! And don't worry - I intend to ;)

Ah, its lovely Magic!
not only in the river, but in the moon,
pastelled onto a cloud at his side
made me smile and desribed clinging to the familiar part is great. K xx

Thank you, Kahdai :) Glad this one made you smile!

You really do have a way of drawing your readers into your poems right from the start, Magic and this one, certainly a fine example.

The five-line stanza format works admirably here and I admire the way you start and finish the poem, sitting right there on that bench...along with me, Beeme, Insert, Kahdai, etc.etc.;-)

A cherry of a poem if ever I read one!

Thank you so much, Tina! I'm glad you were along for the ride with this one too ;)

Magic xxx

Yup - I felt as if I was on that bench with you all (a tight but enjoyable squeeze)

Much admiration for your ability to immerse you readers in the moment, Magic. Love what you do and love the way you do it!

As always, a joy to read. Congrats on the cherry :)

"Love what you do and love the way you do it!" - that means so much to me, Rachel - thank you!! Glad you enjoyed your sit on a bench with us ;)

As an exiled Londoner I feel duty bound to point out Big Ben is the bell inside the clock tower, not the clock or the tower itself - but I'm merely being peevish because as ever your work is flawless (and, in my personal experience, peerless)

xx:--)

Your are very talented with all of your writing I have read so far, what beautiful imagery. I look forward to reading more of your stuff! Thought uni would take up to much of my time to but its cleared some of the cobwebs outa the brain box instead :)
