If only I had met you...

If only I had met you...
ere a flickering candle threatening!
my life would have been worth the salt all are tasting
just imagine this olllllllleleee soul facing flattering
one day
some day
if not yet today ........

folks like you shall come to read
again and again
and
say

''Pay no heed to anyone ole man
you have performed
and
still at eighty -3 you are'''

thanks for the pat you give
may I bow to Neo

Hello, Lovedly!
I feel as if we have met, through poetry, which might be the best and most authentic self in all of us. You are one of a kind! Thank you for this piece!

I guess this is what I feel. I wish that I had better health, so that I could get out and meet everyone in the flesh and face to face! However, that's not going to happen, so I will have to content myself with the meetings through our works. Not such a bad thing, at least we have a meeting of the minds, which can be more satisfying than physical meetings. [Besides, I am not as good to look at as when I was younger]. Hello, right back! ~ Geez.

This site is very important to me and I enjoy reading and interacting with everyone. Your poems challenge me as a reader. I’m always looking for underlying things. Sometimes I think there’s a lot under the surface and other times I feel like you are pulling my leg. Either way it’s your language

but all love to dig me

so I rarely surface
float just at or below the flowing river
My life is a long river
now in rain snow no more do I shiver
wow never quiver lol
