You and I
.:.
And the distance
between us
.:.
to hell and back
on a lonely road
less travelled
.:.
launched
into the storm
.:.
it's now
or never
return to me
once more

Herbert James Gunn .:. Pauline in the Yellow Dress, 1944
Barrier broken
as words dropped
into the night's cold embrace
.:.
My thoughts no longer
in another place
while my head
rests against your chest

Divine bliss from parted
shadows and the touch
of a Fallen Angel's kiss

#OTD 1813 Coleridge writes "I have made a famous lecture to a crowded Room - and all the better because I had not prepared one single word….till ten minutes before" #weveallbeenthere#perhapsnotthefamousbit
It is #SundayMorning once again so here's "Sunday Morning, Farringdon Road" by Cecil Osborne from 1929 which is in the collection @BrightonMuseums This was amongst Cecil's first submissions for exhibition &, by all accounts, he doubted his ability!! #CecilOsborne#ELG
Good morning @JohnTizard & thank you. Yet again #SaturdayMorning has arrived &, if I'm honest, I wasn't really ready for it: I still thought that it was Friday or maybe even Thursday! Here's one that I haven't shown for a while: this is "Felpham" by Walter Steggles from 1936 #ELG

If I knew it was the last time I would talk to you,
I would have poured my feelings out

@RDodsworth1 @lightlyliz Ah, excellent! @RDodsworth1 Here's "The Mill at Upminster" by Lilian Hawthorn (nee Leahy) from her post-war work. Her husband Elwin also painted & exhibited a piece with the same title in 1934 but, sadly, it is currently "unknown". #ELG

@rusdaboss@Spill_Words I don’t know who you are or why @ me. You sent me nothing. I will not be gaslighted again. I quit writing because I was bullied and told I was someone else’s account by a lying filth Troll Nara Hodge and her multiple accts when that could have been easily verified and was not.
