I lie here alone and naked beneath the comfort of the quilt that we picked out on our honeymoon. I pull your pillow close to me and bury my face in my memories of you. Your scent still lingers throughout this house, you know... I picked up a towel from the bottom of the bath closet yesterday... A bottle of your perfume rolled across the floor and stopped at my feet... I sprayed a little into the air and just stood there, missing you.... Christopher M.

Thank you...you guys all know how much it means to me to post and reply...although I can't as much as I'd like to anymore...the three poems I've chosen to represent my work in this book are what I think are the three best I've written...not from any literary aspect other than they seem to evoke strong emotions even from me when I read them back to myself...I hope you all think so too. Anyway...thanks for all your votes and for allowing me the opportunity to show my work here. chris Never be a carbon copy of anybody...make your own impressions. - ANON. |

Chris, it evoked strong emotions in me too. The sense of loss was almost tangible! Eric. "We are the music makers and we are the makers of dreams." - Willy Wonka. |

Chris, how tenderly you've shared the honest, aching spirit of loss and remembrance...I remember reading this poem some time ago...lovely work, here, my friend. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Chris- HEY! This certainly pulls at the heart strings. Such a sweet, yet painful piece you have here. Ahhh, to be loved by someone like that...I love this piece babe!  -Holly I know well what I am fleeing from but not what I am in search of. Michel de Montaigne |
