wearin the breath...... what a wonderful poetic thinking and expression...... thank u dear Bharati... tony
a dedication for you with my breath......what a powerful message......displayed in your touchy lines...
I got goose bumps! It is elegantly simple or simply elegant. You do not clutter it with unnecessary words- -this lets its impact be straight-to-the-heart piercing. I love it! I love every word you chose and every loving thing you said. This could not be better said by any poet who ever walked the earth and loved. A million ten's and a huge place on my Fav list.
I love the quiet sensuousness of surrender encapsulated in your lines. What is love if it is not expressed? And what deeper expression of life is our very breath? To breathe my love out to you, to be captured and held for eternity. And then you take us deeper, toward more significant surrender. What more preciousness in life is there than the moments of our living, the only currency that can be spent but once? And here, too, your subject's love in such treasured currency is freely given, freely surrendered. Beautifully inspired and delightfully executed, dear Bharati
Short and sweet with deep and hearty words of expression on love...Take the days, months and years Take the seconds, minutes and hours And decorate your house Oh dear, I will love to eternity. very catchy....congratulations Bharati...thanks for your comment on my poem too
i like it. Oh dear, I will love to eternity. .........love who/what? hmm? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - AND as sent in a message to you today: Re: On Your Brows My mate sometimes gives me a piece of her mind.......'on my head', and sometimes a frying pan as well. Ouch! at first i thought: brows? because i don't think of a person as having more than one brow, but i do think of a person as having two eyebrows. i can accept brows here. :) again, i would use more punctuation, as i mentioned in my comment on A Day For Myself 's poem page. if you are referring to a partner, or other loved one with dear..............i would capitalize it to Dear. but dear will stand even though, for me, it is not clear what you mean. you MIGHT 'want' a comma after oh if dear refers to a person. *****oh dear has a meaning all its own: dear me (redirected from Oh Dear) Also found in: Acronyms. dear me Also, ***** oh dear. A polite exclamation expressing surprise, distress, sympathy, etc. For example, Dear me, I forgot to mail it, or Oh dear, what a bad time you've been having. These usages may originally have invoked God, as in dear God or oh God, which also continue to be so used. [Late 1600s] See also: dear [thanks, Google] this shall go into Section B of Feb.2017's showcase. thanks. bri ;) p.s. favorite lines: Take the days, months and years Take the seconds, minutes and hours And decorate your house ......................... the days will go in my garage, months in the attic, years in the cellar, but the seconds will go in my living room, the minutes in my kitchen, and the hours in my bedroom. thanks. bri :)
Thank you Bri Edwards for the exhaustive analysis of the poem.It is always a delight to read your comments.I am thankful to you for pointing the errors that escaped my eyes.Yes, the poem should be read as'On Your Brow' rather than 'On your Brows'. Regarding the line 'I will love to eternity'I am to share the interesting fact that in my original poem it was penned 'I will live to eternity'.While typing here to post - the word 'live' was changed to 'love'.When I read it after posting I did not want to change as I perceived the poem wanted to appear in this form. I agree to your suggestion- a comma after Oh and capital D instead of small d for 'dear'
Einstein says, time is relative and dependent. so in such pieces of emotions, each piece of time is itself eternal... nice poem

Beautifully penned. A perfect 10+++ Take the days, months and years Take the seconds, minutes and hours And decorate your house Oh dear, I will love to eternity.
Thank you Sri Unnikrishnan E.S. for your wonderful comment.It is great feeling when poet and critic like you come to read my poem.
WOW! What a complete confession of love in just a few chosen words and promises that will not only convince your beloved but also give you a model of behavior to follow in the future so YOU do not fail in keeping this passion alive. This is the sincerity which makes love believable and real to those who have the truest intentions. And the same depth of affection.
It is so nice to hear 'WOW' for the poem.Every poet desires to know the views of readers on his /herwork.Your comments always lift the spirit of writers.Thank you so much for your valuable feedback.
I returned to this poem- -read it again- -and fell in love with it all over again! That is the hallmark of a great poem- -it never gets old- -it stays vibrant and essential. This is a poem that deserves honors and awards and a place in history. 10 million points and a place on my fav list and it deserves a place in a published book that would sit on my bookcase except when I was reading it again and yet again
