I feel as Mr. Shakespeare's hand That never held a quill Or as the bravest knight may have Without his sword or shield In perfect love where once we were My soul you could replete With you and love, both distant now I'm simply incomplete A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground |

You DO draw the emotion in so few lines, Kris... and you do it very well... |

(big hugggssssss) Oh Kristopher, this is so beautiful but so sad, I hope this is only fictional and now like Shakespeare loves robin always restores amends in your heart! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kristopher, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

How I missed this the first time through I don't know. It's lovely Kris. |

"With you & love, both distant now, I'm simply incomplete." I'm glad these lines were at the end of the poem, instead of the beginning. They moved me to tears and I wouldn't have been able to read the rest of the poem! Take care Linda |

Beautiful. Simply beautiful. The extra stanza works wonderful here, Kris. By the way, replete? Nice word choice. Sincerely, Titus "I'll prepare myself, and one day my time will come." |
