On Finding Truth

things happen when ya least expect em to....

On Finding Truth

 

It was while out seeking

Moments

He did stumble and find

Truth

 

Although now fading

He did see fit to save it

To a single page

 

Henceforth he shall be

Remembered

Not as a lover or a legend

 

But as a poet who once

Poemed and penned both

Love and universal truths

 

 

Author's Note

dont be gentle he said.. so she stood up and shot him in the head....

Hello Neville, I feel sure you will be remembered and for far more than your brilliant poetry. I too am often enlightened by what I stumble upon and when least expected. Your author's quote - he got more than he bargained for it seems, dark but left me amused.

I read it, then re-and re- read it... it's fate, it's destined for Him to be a poet, found that truth and walked in that belief, a most gorgeous, brilliant and moving words dearest Neville, "Not as a lover or a legend... Love and universal truths" how beautiful is that? though it holds sadness of loneliness, but it's still beautiful of the divine kind, some of Your thoughts touch me to my core~ even when I can't be here as often, I still think of my wonderful friend Neville :)

[Neville]

every word you posted here means an awful lot to me ... the G Girl is often in my thoughts and true x

Love and universal truths....if only every poet could be remembered for penning such things. If only. We can only hope. That author's note is a bit of black comedy for sure. Lydi**

[Neville]

I am sure you will be one of those most deserving of being remembered for fine poetry.. but that's a long way off yet.. you are just gonna have to make do with your expanding fan base while you can.... a much appreciated visit Lydi** as always.... N :)
