Old Love Affair Poem by ONElia AVElar

Love the symbolism you have created in this richly observed and deeply reflective poem. There is much to draw upon in these few brief lines - another memorable and original write here Onelia. j xx

I can't beat Janice's wonderful critique of this soulful poem..... Other then to say it gives measure to the heady heights a new love always brings. rx

I so love this! I adore the porcelain being struck and the porcelain being striken witm memories and loss and regret. This is a perfect tuning fork of a poem which resonates now with happiness now with sadness but hits the note that can shatter a heart and tell the tale of what is past that swirls into view with all its bitter sweetness. Beautifully crafted and perfectly Proustian. love Dónall Dónall

the things that trigger memories Emotions that we can't control can spring to mind with greatest ease although I think that on the whole We can look back nostalgically recalling how things used to be. As we sit and drink our tea with few regrets quite probably

I love the emotional timbre of this one - neither happy nor sad, but quietly reflective - almost transcendental in fact. Yes, porcelain does that - cracked or not and tea does too. Images that carry the reader with you on your nostalgic journey. A fine poem. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

A soft green touchy expression on love. Love with 10 Onelia.

A very fine poem. Remembering an old love affair, once a venture now seems childish, in such a sophisticated and symbolic way is a real delight of your poetry. I think everyone has this venture in his/her life............10/10. Best Wishes Naseer

I love this poem Onelia... its imagery is second to none. Bravo. HG: -) xx

measuring... in tea spoons and chipped cups!

So much truth in this. Spoons do, of course, exist to stir...... and yes. So much in so few words. t x
