Simply beautiful. Ron

I have views on what, how, and why we write.Sometimes we conjour up a long wished for event. At other times we write to celebrate a present state of affairs.On occasion we write as the poets in the past wrote...commercially and manufactured to generate a response from the reader.In whatever context this piece of writing was conceived it is full of imagery and poetry.I also like the repetitive 'If' usage as a device to turn the poem to guide the reader to a fulfilled conclusion. Overall a good poem. Sid.

Without a doubt this is the most beautiful poem of yours that I have ever read. Seriously, it stacks up against some of the 'Greats'. A really wonderful read. Thank you very much for putting it down so others like me can read it. (What infuriates me is that you have summed up my own feelings for the person who totally stole my heart and I don't have the abilities to put it down on paper. I'm very jealous)

Janice, it's a beautiful write, what if you had not met your mister right, but you did and gave us this beautiful write... Andrew 10

I can't decide whether there is a touch of wistfulness in this or whether it is simply purre joy and appreciation. Either way, it is a beautifully composed tribute of gratitude and recognition and wholenes. t x
