UNTOUCHABLE

UNTOUCHABLE

A Poem by emmajoygreen

How often when you stub a toe or
slip on a soon be brown banana skin
or the last of the milk has curdled or -
kith an' kin turn up at the door
unexpected tired wet or more
when you wanted to rest, calmly?!

untouchable 

Of course point each all eight
to the fire side,  nothing denied
welcomes two a dozen muttered
regrets under the breath uttered 
truth know, due to staying alone
OR up away .. going to the moon

untouchable

Wow this write is deep.in many ways, one day two monk's we're arguing the secrets of life and where to hide it because man wasn't ready. In the ocean no said one because man will swim the mountain no man will climb then the moon no man one day will land. After so much debate they decided to place it in his heart because man will never look within.
Thank you for sharing.

I thought i was the only one distressed when solitude is interrupted... Unless I'm the one! MAKE WAY! COMING THROUGH! WHAT'S TO DRINK?.., BLAH, BLAH, BLAH... My I LOVE visiting! you are always such a lovely hostess/host!
Instead of sailing to the moon on untouchable wisps of light...

EmmaJoy... That door never closes for you...

Those moon boots do look comfy and might act like mini trampolines, so best tether yourself to something or someone or you might just bounce on to Mars or become a twinkling star all of your own...not that I'm saying you're not already a star. Well, I think you know what I meant but also know how confuddled by bigly worderations!
The trouble with kith and kin is thinking everyone is delighted by surprise visits and sometimes fail to see the value of a heads up or even a warning text.
They'll realise one day when they turn up needing fed and watered and bursting fir the loo and be met with a sign saying "gone to the moon!" Just don't be surprised if they follow you there!
