Anniversary (For Jim) Comments

Mary, I read your poems on poemhunter and must make a comment on the last entry, 'Anniversary (for Jim) ': Because I knew you 'Before any sweet voice ever sounded', and because I knew you, 'When Love was but a killing thirst', and because we were such close friends 'When time was but a taunting curse', and, 'When night hid every wishing star', I can personally attest to the last verse of your poem that reads: 'It matters not, for what had been Dissolved forever on that day My heart records life first began When you brought love my way' I want to take the time at this moment to thank you for the wonderful comments you placed in my poetry folder to the members of this site. You said some very nice things that I find, quite honestly, very flattering. I appreciate your sincere compliments. I can only say I wish I were as accomplished writer as you are, yourself. Cathe

May I just say Wow! This is such an impressive, imagery full and emotion filled piece that seems to be effortless in its flow ~ It even glides off the tongue as I read it aloud.10/10! Thank you so much for sharing...I Love it. Shelley

This is a lovingly crafted poem that paints an image of the most perfect beginning to, as T McH said, an enduring love...deeply moving with effortless rhymes and stunning imagery. j x

I was going to say congratulations on your anniversary (of course) . But I think also congratulations to Jim on having found such a lovely and talented lady. M, that last stanza is one of the most divine things I have ever read. And yes, of course, I wish I had written it. What a gorgeous tribute to an obviously enduring love. t xx
