To have had this strong bond of love is incredibly special. Love comes in many forms and true, true love is not always captured. Bless you.

Thank you for reading and commenting. I continue to lack inspiration, after losing my husband I remain empty inside.

The poem evokes sad feelings, the title included. The last stanza in the parenthesis is a lingering beauty. 'I am afraid I have no inspiration or motivation to write any more' - these words of yours in reply to Unwritten Soul's comment left me more saddened.

Thank you US. I am not active on site at the moment. I am afraid I have no inspiration or motivation to write any more. But I do appreciate your lovely comments, and as always, it is great to hear from you. I do hope you are keeping well. My very best wishes to you. Val

You know, like always your poem never less than beautiful work of art... truly you are a talented writer...honest, creative, experienced, artistic and gifted

I am most struck by the unerring beauty of your poem's rhythm. You have a fine ear for melody and there is a great depth to your words too. I didn't realise we had such a fine poet in the Preston area. Tom billsborough

Valerie-It would be a shame for you to harness your remarkable talent.Perhaps poetry could lead you to a better place.I feel your hurt in this ever so poignant poem.I bet you can still beat about all of us would be poets.I'll be watching-Joseph

True love transcends beyond the moment and becomes part of being and is forever etched in memory. Sensuousness of the moment is relived in recollection and is a tribute to the loved one. Excellently expressed, Val.

Simmering passion, deep loving physicality, great use of words. Thank you Valerie

A wonderful poem, Val. The feelings that are expressed are so strong that the reader is very deeply moved. Love never dies. Sometimes the best we can do for these very special loved ones is to let their tenderness and care and kindness live on in our own being, doing, thinking, This poem is a truly a beautiful expression. I pray for your strength and wellness.
