Love is ever sweet and love resides with beauty of memory. The teardrops glistened on his cheeks still bloom in eyes. An emotional poem is very beautifully and brilliantly penned.10

At long last, my kindred spirit found..... for such words as these, poetry dance! With mine heart whisked away, as my tongue quakes to say: such saddened feel, this lost romance! Intensely beautiful. So glad to have found you Valerie. For so long I have felt alone in the world of classical poetry. I must agree with Achill below - this is certainly a masterpiece.....

A very touching and tender poem. Death can take its toll on loved ones left behind. Yet there are still memories to cherish. Loved this.
