Of course the poem matters as it brings with it romance into the relationship. A lovely poem indeed. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.

A tragedy summed up in three lines - - I wonder sometimes in dark the still of night If I had read you the poem would it have mattered The regret of having understood the joy of fulfilling the small petty requests of a loved one, which at the moment feels quite absurd, but after they leave our hand, it fills the heart with an inexplicable heaviness....indeed touching! ! ! ! |
