my half of your heart.......
By Larry Chadwick



                                                        the unconditional and cans    
  are tepid sometimes, the future not  
so easy to tell, as this giddy young boy
anticipates the possibilities of us and yet
dreams the hopes that all lovers dream
poetry a longing, yet to be shared with
a beauty of like mind, the echo of his
write, the other half of his embrace
unaware of the challenges there
oblivious to what he risks, not
a doubt that somewhere out
there the other half of who
he longs to be, yearning
for a fit that is the gift
that will define all of
the boundaries of
his sea, and all
possibilities of
what life’s ifs
probably
should
be

Karen,
Thanks. But all the credit goes to doreen! I'm the copy cat. Hope she doesn't mind too much. But glad you liked it.

Lyra,
Well from my pc to yours...thanks. But all the credit goes to doreen. Although they look pretty cool printed on the same page.

this is soooooo beautiful, Larry! Thank you for this!! i am honored!!!!! Such lovely writing and a truly special gift from a kind friend.

the format i sorta copied myself as I saw one Marge wrote that looked like a half of a heart, and i emailed her and told her "i wondered what happened to the other half of my heart".... which gave me the idea to write in this shape.... so i'm a copycat, too but hey, let's call us both "inspired", shall we? *wink*.... thank you again so very much!!

i wish you and your loved ones a beautifully wonderful & perfect Valentines Day! You are a kind man and deserve no less!

dor,
Thanks for clearing things up! THANKS MARGE! This was really fun but a much bigger pain to right justify then I expected. Plus writing lines to a specific length. By the way, it's the first poem that ever wrote requiring the use of a tape measure. LOL You have been so gracious to let me do this. I hope you have a wonderful Valentines Day.

dor,
LOL yup! Hey I sent you this in a file side by side with yours. Maybe they should be posted together as one in #19. If it measured up I assume you weren't using metric when you checked! LOL Thanks.
