A Moment of Regret

 

 

She said

“She would have me within the hour”

 

“Then afterwards”

She said

“We might share a cup of coffee and a shower”

 

Since it never happened

 

One might just be forgiven

For this moment of regret

A moment of regret... imagined as a bet..
Spring is in the air... anything can happen..
if you write it in a poem... truly, Pat

[Neville]

These words of yours
left here for me to find
made me smile no end.... N :)

[Patricia Wedel]

If you can imagine something... you can dream...
pleased as can be to make you smile. P:)

[Neville]

You most certainly did Pat.... Neville :)

I wager there are more moments of regret in most people's lives than they care to admit.

Forgive maybe, but perhaps not forget. :))

Beccy.

[Neville]

I have no doubt you are absolutely spot on, in all respects.... Respect and All Good Things, Neville :)

[Chris Shaw]

Never a surface read do you bring to your readers Neville. Always deep, always ambiguous. All I know is regret gets you nowhere on your death bed. Much thinking to do here:)

I am very lucky.. I regret very little.. but hope I shall eventually die contented, otherwise I'm gonna be really peed off N

[Chris Shaw]

I think you will die with a grin your face :)

[Neville]

thank you our Chris, I sincerely hope so :)

[Robert Trakofler]

well i certainly would forgive you for your regret. It is very important have that coffee in the morning and forget about skipping the shower that sort of thing can ruin a guys whole day

[Neville]

cheers BB.. I hardly ever miss either.. except when I am rambling maybe... N :)

[J.P. Bristow]

Full of self condemnation ....and polysemy. Well done

[Neville]

Bless ya J.P.B you can't beat a bit of polysemy in my book ... All Good Things, N

[Lyn Anderson]

Hmmm, this could be entirely innocent, or shades of something else. I love it, as always, you are ambiguously sparse in your explanation, which makes it difficult to tell.

[Neville]

Ambiguity most definitely has a place in this multi hued rainbow kinda world dont'cha fink? Grateful yet again, N

[Tate Morgan]

Hmm well now If i had been you I cant say I wouldnt have regret

[Neville]

Thank you Tate
