Curdled milk
Hanging stench
Dry dust of poverty
Don't you dare
Agree with me

Move away
Humour me
Your superior antics
They smell of coins
And plastic cards

Oh my stains
They are memory
Eggs stolen
Pee missing the urinal
Then loss of control

Get out of my failing sight
I see more than you
I am the base
You stand on me
Try standing with me

Go to hell
You won't change
Greed has made you
I am made of poverty
You constructed both

Why Me

Why did he look at me so
just his eyes and head
laying in the wet snow
a reality of this war?

How did I come to be
here so that I could see
such horror of my friends
their death untimely ends?

Clouds rolled raggedly in
the gas took many away
how could man learn to pray
God was not with us today.

Poet

Writing piece's young poets
That helps someone is a great honour.
That you wander with your thoughts as a butterfly
Flitting from flower to flower
Attracted by the light of creation then sipping of nectar.
Go well young traveller
Your sojourn is a complete thing in its own rights.
Let dreams festoon your ways with love and compassion
Letting loose all thoughts of self
Wander within the realms of beauty
Then beauty will be yours..

Do you all remember my two poems from 2011 well there is a book/film out now and a report that goes like this:-

"Grounded" is an independent feature film about what is considered by many authorities to be "The Greatest Health RE-Discovery of All Time": Walking barefoot on the Earth.

This simple activity was found to cure a surprising array of ailments in residents of Alaska - a place not exactly renowned for its barefoot lifestyle!

Footprints

We are passing into another phase on Neopoet
Where the workshops are holding many.
There are a few of the older members returning ,
It is another time of change, and I hope for the better

I read many comments from now to back when
Still there are some that use to comment on the person
Now this change seems to be a way of talking together
The subjects are poetry not personality or history

GI’s that were billeted in our village when I was about a year old 1943/44
They all went to Europe on the “D” Day landings, all survived the war the first to pass away was, "Bill Zanone" who died in 1957.
If anyone knows of them, or it will be their children now, this is just to say thank you and that we know how much you gave for us in England.
My sister who has gone now had photos of some of these guys, but I am not sure what happened to them, there is the odd photo, that my son has now with of one of them holding me when I was a baby.

"Anapaest"

An anapaest:-
Also spelled anapæst or anapest, also called antidactylus.
Is a metrical foot used in formal poetry.
In classical quantitative meters it consists of:-

Two short syllables followed by a long one;

In accentual stress meters it consists of two unstressed syllables followed by one stressed syllable

It may be seen as a reversed dactyl.

Because of its length and the fact that it ends with a stressed syllable and so allows for strong rhymes, anapaest can produce a very rolling, galloping feeling verse.
