I would write about our great romance. Things like: The first time you asked me to dance, that first kiss, "our song," the way you broke my heart when it all went wrong. I would write about the one I can't forget... Had we met. Ida Werrett |

Ya had me going, Ida, until the "Had me met." (Maybe its "we" instead of "me?" A very likable poem with a catch. Those are the best kind. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ |

The "what ifs" in life leave me with a sense of wonder. Your poem is full of grace and a special kind of tenderness. Lovely thoughts, Ida~ |

Awe... An inspiring look into the questioning heart. I am a hopeless romantic. I believe that "someone" is out there for everone, and one should never give up hoping for that meeting. Here's hoping. Michael |

I adore your acumen, dear Ida. And I bet you have met , but I guess the heart has not been broken and isn't that a good thing! Whatever you write about, you do it in your own special creative way. Always a pleasure to read you. Love, Margherita |
