Rain Drenched Wall |

We scattered over sand to avoid the gentle drizzle of rain scattering us in our legs as we ran laughing for the pleasure A three foot wall seemed nothing as you waited hair drenched on your back to be seen and approached as winds swept in, in blinding hail On a grey rain drenched wall Of rain washed Torrents Cotton held gentle drops of feet in a blinding storm as the sea took us swaying towards us floating as the wall held moving us from the wild to another wild that was never as honest as the wild we enjoyed We made the old factory Where women stacked kippers for smoking In a life that spoke hard social Now they stack shelves That speak solitary hard social And no sea, no trysts, no thoughts, no escape just a longer life And what is life Without life And maybe a cold wet wall In a cotton wet dress In a feeling Of life |

A continuous surprise Dave. Every poem leads to another creative curve that hangs the reader to the very edge. Great write! Eric |

Maybe it's the 'B' blood, Eric And I think about the plasma. I just want to write about life and I write for others and I try to write honest. Thanks mate Dave |

passing shadows Thanks Passing - I enjoyed writing it. HopeS Was that to last week Hope. *Alli4000* Thanks Alli. MGROVES Thanks. I have a few things taking up my interest at the moment. Most I could probably do without but I do consider Piptalk to be a major chunk of my writing thinking. Thanks everyone Dave |
