Well Ben, I do hope you got your rest eventually. Congrats' on such a well-deserved vote as 'Poem of the day'. Poem was excellent! I gave a 10' for this one!
It's a nice poem...both of you seem to be restlessly in love...Hope the strength of your love brings peace and tranquility in your life...congrats for being Poem of the day.
This is so beautifully written! I am in love with this poem!
Pretty good dis is, love has its own way of doing things.
Not to burst bubbles, but I think it's kind of odd. And maybe a little derivative.
This is the kind of poem I like to read, and read again and let it speak with its own words to me.
What a shame it is that this poem, which has been on the site since 2006, just now receives attention. Man, this is a real poem. I'd likely give my pretentions to write a piece this emotive and sense-rendering. I hope this poem doesn't wallow in obscurity. It has too much soul for that.
Lindo, the way you express your love. Pure and simple! ! !
Great write, you show so much experience in this piece. You are a talented writer. Keep writing. Love this piece!
Ciao, Ben! Simple yet speaks volumes. I think often a great poem is precisely that-compact & clear. Love your stuff... aaa
Your poem is painfully beautiful That is all that I can say the rest stays in my heart -Pia
Well expressed thoughts and feelings. An insightful creation, very heartfelt. Thanks for sharing, Ben.
