he left it there sitting on a shelf
in the sun
didn't need it he said, his fun
days were done
just left, just like that
to burn with the sun, didn't
need light
he said
the dark days had come
he retreated and shrivelled
refused to come back, we
waited, we prayed for a miracle
attack
but he never retrieved that lost
part of himself
his ashes sit there, in the sun,
on a shelf

Hi Pratibha...why aren't you on more??? I nearly missed your latest!!! Thankyou for your kind comment π
I really havent put much on. Not proper poetry like you and Jill. I dont know how you manage to upload so many most days!!
I get on cos some days and then not others. Time is the reason. So I'll read what I can! Or catch up on my favourite poets, like you π
Flattery will get you everywhere, you've got the job!! ππ I live on my own now so in the absence of people to rant at..I rant on here lol...and Pratibha, I disagree, your words are always soulful and beautiful and we miss them. There is no such thing as 'proper' poetry...get back in here when you can ok...hugs π
Oh Marion you are too kind. Thank you. Enjoying doing the quotes. Will get back to poems too. Sometimes my writes can be philosophical which is inspired by spiritualism and in turn alot on mindfulness too.Β
You rant away. Get it all out. Best way forward. Plus I like reading them!! Think we all do on cos. Pxπ
Haha well then we must feed off each other luv π€£ππ₯°
Jill...I don't think you realise how you keep Cosmo.going my friend...it would be a very lonely place without your writes constantly feeding this site. Makes it feel.like home...you are under valued on here!! πΒ
Awwww well so nice of u to say but u n greg are indeed my biggest fans its very quiet lol xxxxxΒ
I know...no worries...we can write even more to fill up all the blanks ...ππππ
Teehee π€£π€£π€£
Cool analogy Marion. Very unqiue. Kind regards. Max
Hey Max, sorry if I missed some of yours will catch up soon, just finished a very loooong....spell in grotty work...thanks love π
XD, awww no fuss Marion! We all have our busyness, and it seems even more so for a popular poet like yourself. Never seen a grotty poem from you Marion! :) best wishes to you.
Lol...you clearly haven't looked hard enough ππ€
XD, but... new poets look up to you Marion. It's really noticeable... VIP.....? ;)
No...lol...I'm not a VIP...you know, it's a shame you missed a few no longer on here. Very excellent poets...Icarus flock, Blank Portrait ....now, they were something else!! I really miss Mr flocks work...it was truly unique...I think you might have been in awe of his work Max...
night love π
But if you could vote for that I would for you Marion XD! Be cool to see if their work is elsewhere. Your compliment to them must mean its awesome! Night Marion.Β
"death" certainly is your fav topic. Good layout and I only know what's it till the end, clever!
Hi Yiyan...thankyou. π
