Love’s Embrace I awoke.... here.... remembering.... morning songs of Spring in the bloom of children’s voices from another life, and wondrous cloud-fantasies ever spinning by through a dazzling Summer sky, until the first-frost roses final blush with Autumn’s fading smile. remembering.... I awoke.... here.... where hope once lived in my saddened soul that her stone-cold heart could be warmed by words of truth in Love’s embrace; there is nothing now but the silent settling of regrets, like Winter-dust on the tapestry of Time and moonlight on a broken dream! |

This write pulls me in and paints the picture, then turning, pulls me in again. Fine, fine choreography and sequence! I especially like how you made that turn from "I awoke.... here.... remembering...." to "remembering.... I awoke.... here...." Everything in-between and after was, as usual, so well done, Dreampoet! |

" remembering.... I awoke.... here.... where hope once lived in my saddened soul that her stone-cold heart could be warmed by words of truth in Love’s embrace; there is nothing now but the silent settling of regrets, like Winter-dust on the tapestry of Time and moonlight on a broken dream!" Bruce, this is so vivid, for lack of a better word....the emotion here is tangible. I like this very much! |

Sad regret fills these words...painting a picture of lost hope....Keep dreaming for I am one who can say dreams can become the greatest reality....weave dear poet and let the dreams you weave flow across the landscape of time....Magnificent writing...*Big Hugs* |

"remembering.... I awoke.... here.... where hope once lived in my saddened soul" ~ I could not help but let out my own sad sigh on remembering... Your quill spills poignantly poetic ink. ~ May you be making wonderful new memories for your tomorrows! Linda |

How sad this is and how poignantly you draw me into your weave. Excellent words. a good commitee can decimate communication. |

Bruce~ Back in here for another read ... and to take a moment to say that you write with heart and purpose ... I would encourage you to continue ... you would be missed were you not to share even more~ Now ... no final curtain .... but how's about another curtain call ? *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
