Separations Poem by Bob Blackwell

this amazing poem, zen like in presentation appeals to all the five senses - it speaks, touches, paints great visuals, one can hear sounds and get a taste of life. Bob, I am so glad i found it. goes toy fav list.10 Mamta

Such an evocative piece. Love the compressed nature of the writing - like George Shearing's closed harmony. And the use of onomatopoeia with words like drip drip and trickle down gives great color to the poem. Goodbyes aren't easy are they? love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Your writing has much clarity andit difficult to write apt comments! The poems speak for themselves. The mist, the fog, the tears add the emotional element.

a moving good bye poem... well written...thanks for sharing, Bob

Railway stations and trains evoke such unhappy memories as well as happy ones at times too. You have taken us to a sad time of parting Bob and in your description of the dank wet place you stir a sigh as we see folk not wanting to say goodbye. Good write Bob. written with your usual honesty in words.

beautiful imagery that speaks in this lovely poem
