Two loves entwined....vines rising in the air.
Simple green vines...holding love they share.
Weaving upward in joy felt within veins.
Lasting love, rising high, forever remains.

Simple slim stalks, adorned with green leaves
creating a lover’s spell in hearts as they weave.
Lasting love entwined as one becomes of two
as breezes flow over, leaves whisper I love you.

Following the sun above, flowing into the sky
Falling deeper in love, sounding a soft sigh.
Leaves touching each other’s soul and heart,
entwined as one, never again to pull apart.

Let the vines reflect the greatest love I give
Let the breeze carry my heart, for you I live.
Water the roots of deepest love felt by me.
and let my passion entwine you ever tenderly.

(sigh) Oh my gosh, this is by far one of your best yet, I could envision the whole vision of watching these flowers swaying softly in the spring breeze and slowly their vines attach together and the petals kiss, this is sooooooo romantic! (smiles) Your lovely words always make me sigh, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Barry this may be my favorite yet..simply beautiful.
I liken it to grape vines, with the sweetness gowing, until harvest, where they transform into yet another miracle.

The images and emotions that you convey are strong as usual.

I note you accept positive criticism and so I will say, at the risk of diminishing my previous comments which are sincere, that the meter length and flow detract a bit from the otherwise excellent qualities of your poem.  A more consistent meter would enhance your work and make it even better.

I enjoy the many poems of yours that I have seen and certainly look forward to seeing more.
