Yo Bill,

In the first line of the second strophe, do you mean "warmth" or do you mean "warm".

It's possible I do not understand that line.

Beautiful words with a definite calming affect.  The picture is great and looks like you took it from a cruiseship.  Nicely done.

You have expressed this captivating thought of "Yesterday in Today" very beautifully, dear Bill.

The longing is deeply perceived. The picture contributes intensely to the feelings you convey.

Love,

This touched me Bill.

There's always a time when I long for yesterday in today.

In these lonely halls no moon will weep, no sun will shine.
In these narrow rooms no tears are seen, no laughter heard!

A man as gentle and loving as you, should never have to experience any sharp edges in your life.
~ Warmth and serenity should be the order of your days ~ and nights.

Giving you a warm hug, dear Poet,

I'm afraid I got lost in the picture for a while... my ocean yearn is getting to the cannot-be-ignored point. *S*

Such a lovely presentation, Bill... and the tender yearn of your words is fantastic! *S*

Such a powerful poem.  "in remembrance of times passed in haste"  Time may fly whilst having fun but the memories stretch for eons.

In such an ugly time, beauty is the real protest

Too all - thank you very much for stopping by to read my poetry. It's deeply appreciated. At times I know I don't answer all replies, and I have no excuse. Thanks again...
