Joe Maverick Poet Verse

Unforsaken

Again I see you, again you return to me again you remain, I am unable to move
Without reiteration of your presence; you make me aware always, and again
Never is never to be.' as all is possible still more than imagination is.' 
That is reality in its ever change, of opportunity there will be no end.
You begin again in renewal, as snowdrops bloom in biting wind cold
Old ever the opposite to youth, & that is part of forever without finish
Outside is waiting unbelief. & echoing throughout existence willingness
New day is sprung of itself, indifferent to broken dreams or the longest nights
Lessons are given; forgotten.' again & again; life's spirals weave dream & destiny's

Maurice Yvonne February 1, 2017 at 10:42 AM Joe, your writing is a blessing for me. It gives me a chance to read one of the best. For me it has a teaching element. It is what great modern poetry should be. Of course I will add it to my fav list. The only thing that saddens me is the lack of ability for a bunch of us to get together for a coffee or whatever just to talk. Love, love, love this. Thank you! Joe Maverick February 4, 2017 at 12:48 PM You are too Kind my friend, its good to read and hear from such a quality writer.' As yourself.'

Andrea Dietrich January 2, 2016 at 7:33 PM I read just now what you replied to me a while back. Sorry to hear that you were (are?) depressed. I wish you a happy new year that will make you feel uplifted. Joe Maverick January 4, 2016 at 1:50 AM Hello Andrea, thank you for your kindness, I was however referring to the economic depression.' which has slowed everything down.'

Maurice Rigoler December 14, 2015 at 12:32 PM Flackmoth has considered running for president but convinced himself he was not corrupt enough to do the job. As for Mr. Trump, if he gets elected, it will only prove how little insight Americans have in judging character. Merci for the stop. Best to you. / M

Andrea Dietrich December 12, 2015 at 7:52 PM so , Joe, have you seen either Mick or Levine in concert over there in England? Joe Maverick December 14, 2015 at 12:25 PM hmm I met Ronnie Wood I think it was once upon a time Andrea, I must say I am not getting about much these days. Something to do with the depression I would say..'

Andrea Dietrich December 8, 2015 at 6:00 PM wow, deep and beautiful. If you shorten this to tanka form, it could fit in that one contest: time is of the essence. Joe Maverick December 12, 2015 at 12:09 PM Thanks Andrea, I more or less gave up on contests a while ago, I am happy entering the odd one now and then.' good of you to mention it though.'
