Song on a Leaf

 

Write it on a leaf

Strum it in a while

Then add the words

I love you

For now though

Lets just

Watch the kettle boil

 

Author's Note

when a few words are better than nothing, but nothing comes close...

A very unique love poem...simple and sweet. Watching the kettle boil is always wonderful when it comes to romance! I liked this one a lot. Lydi**

[Neville]

I like the fact that you like watching kettles too.. bit like bird watching but without having to hide... and thanks Lydi** .. N x

A leaf as in a page perhaps. One that you know there is no rush to write, as it is felt so intensely. Like the feeling that you know you love them, and feel it from them too, but are happy to just enjoy the moment? I may be trying too hard to see the positives, because now all I can think about is "i wonder if im right" like a swotty kid trying to impress the teacher. :)

[Neville]

You could have something there, maybe.... now go write out 500 times.. I think too much... cheers, N

like love, we feel it in our veins first...then we write it on the leaves, the pages...
it is then preserved.

A deep and mellow poem that like the veins in a leaf will give credence to the syncopation of love when passion is aroused in melodies of rain drops when clouds weep. truly, Pat

[Neville]

[Patricia Wedel]

If you watch a kettle it never boils. I think you are penning a song here, a love song and you are playing along on guitar. A never ending love song. "Feel free to ask", he says. Since when have you ever given answers? :) I am laughing out loud at the thought of you and Margie doing a naked runner.

[Chris Shaw]

[Neville]

No, tis the absolute truth, honest...

[Chris Shaw]

Successful were they :)))))))

[Neville]

No but we did play all over the midlands for a bit... I sang and tried to play bass, my brother was on drums.. when we left the band, the rest of the band and our replacements went on to play all over Europe & even Japan under the name Polaris... guess who thought up the name....

[Chris Shaw]

That must have been a great experience. Got any pics? Well done you for thinking up the name Polaris. I bet you had a bucket load of fun. x

[Neville]

Hello Chris just for the record, I thought of the name Concrete Parachute, got no idea who thought of Polaris...ps.. there were no records N

[Chris Shaw]

Well Neville, I am laughing. Good morning to ya. Concrete parachute my friend, just tells me what a great sense of humour you've got and had back then to. I wouldn't wanna be on the ground waiting for that to land!

[Neville]

No fear, it never got off the ground....... N

[Chris Shaw]

[barleygirl]

This is exactly the pure abandon you are so good at, that makes me want to run naked with you thru the woods while we're waiting for the kettle to boil! *pant! pant!* Fondly, Margie

[Neville]

This is exactly the pure abandon and blatant honesty I so love about you, that makes me want to let you catch me.. forget the kettle.. Fondly, Neville x

[barleygirl]
