It's cold inside… And the fire we built Has died over time To a few embers. Perhaps… If kindled with care then blown on With gentleness They can be coaxed Into flame again… I remember the heat How it built consumed was shared… When did we forget To feed the fire? Were we asleep… To the need and desire To stay warm? It's cold inside… And the fire we built Has left ashes That drift with each Passing breeze, Scattering the memories Come closer… And hold my hand. Perhaps we can spark The tender Again. |

wonderfully tender wanting how about the swing on the veranda on a warm summer night neath the pale moon's light a hand hold strokes of silver haired tresses tantalizing lip caresses thigh by thigh thoughts want to's or knots that bind the love you share |

Very nice. I wonder if it is ever truly possible to rekindle a fire that is out. I know I've tried to no avail. Good write. (and I'm sure you handle the corsets LOL) Sandra |

You've done the classic fire/love analogy justice in this piece. Good work  |

Where there is hope, there is a chance... Where there is desire, there is circumstance... Where there is effort, there is accomplishment... Nice write, Ron. -MVS "When you tell the Truth, you never have to remember what you just said." |

This is a wonderful poem. It probably strikes home for many middle aged couples. Where there's an ember there is always the hope of a raging bond fire. Do not fear going forward slowly, |

With a little tender loving care And gas and a match or two Your fire could again be there Or boom! It could be the end of you. I like your use of the fire analogy here. Very nice write! ~Krista |

...When did we forget To feed the fire? Perhaps we can spark The tender Again... I really like this. The fire must be feed. If there’s an ember, give it a try. Good write. |
