Somewhere long ago in time you often wrote to me in rhyme, I cherished each and every verse, held them in my heart at first, But you did not return this time so now I blend your thoughts with mine and write them down for all to see... A glimpse of immortality. Ida Werrett [This message has been edited by Marchmadness (02-14-2011 07:39 PM).] |

Hello Ida....lovely thought of union in poetry. In a sense, words written down can live and be appreciated longer than flesh. I enjoyed this and the thoughts that came with it. |

In addition to the sentiment, which is lovely, I admire that you have stashed the slant rhymes in the middle and bracketed them with pure rhymes. |

perhaps it would be overuse to use the word, 'beautiful' but it is...and the last line, well...it is a special truism...a pleasant read |

Ah, Ida, I'm catching up on my reading... and you speak well for the immortality of those loves we keep with us, forever. |

Hi Ida - I read this the other day but didn't have time to reply. It is sad and beautiful as well and certainly needs a bump up. Helen |
