I am far from being a poet, but a competitor, yes.  LOL...I hope I have done your line justice  


If and when

If and when
have come and gone
and gone is here to taunt.

Love I send
memories forced
from thou love which did flaunt.

I shall see
with roses red
if I have drew you near.

I shall sing
with string quartets
my searing soul, so clear.

If and then
you still resist
maligned, my heart shall cry.

Since I tried
I shan't deny
love I lost, for all time.



"my love is my motivation
my love is my inspiration
perception of this poem
is your interpretation"

A poet you are
that is so clear
your words are so sweet
and ones to hold dear.

You are truely a poet and this proves it.  You shine and you make my words shine as well. You have earned your gold.  Beautifully written.  Now please accept your reward as the gold I mention so much is in the verses of the other poets.  Please read and reply to at least three more than you normally would.....let the competitor in you accept this last challenge..Thank you.

You really are a poet
verse, deep within your heart
I talent I would covet
for that's where poets start.

Be well

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
