I wish to write a love poem if I could only remember how. I searched and searched in the past of time to find a meaningful now.... To Journal that One Moment Never had cause to write before, not in my head nor in a journal... not really, until you. Oh, I may have had many false starts in my recent past, but the flowing comes when I think of you, your glances, half smiles, lips that touch feelings, overwhelming. Words, flowing into poetry, daily (many unseen) hundreds a month, thousands by now, rhyming, free formed ramblings of my life. A book of sonnets, I am perusing, Of Love and Friendship. I am impassioned by their titles, each having for me, a phrase or two of intent. The "Now!" of it on page 3, merging my thoughts "You around me for once, you beneath me, above me-- Me--sure that despite of time future, time past -- This tick of our life-time's one moment, you love me!" I write for me, and for my moments of you, in this Dream Journal of pages, shaded in blue. And on a leather bookmark, moon shaped embossed, words to save, my time capsule waiting for that one moment when... Once in a Blue Moon, a small part of my within, rests assured, that No one can lay a hand on my dreams. I wish to write a love poem if I could only remember how So I searched and searched in the past of time to find a meaningful now.... M * Now! by Robert Browning "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Your poems on love are always a pleasure to read. They are guileless, real, and honest. They are also fascinating, multi-layered explorations of your heart that you openly share with your readers.  Linda |

MzWynter~ There is such beauty in this ... quiet lacy thoughts that lay in the heart of the reader~ 'I write for me, and for my moments of you' *sigh* *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Beautiful, Maureen. It is heart-warming to see you so happy after your years of sadness. Oh, and by the way, you DO remember how to write a love poem. You have just done so. - Owl |

vandana thank you Owl, I am basically a happy person even if my poems don't always seem like it. Sometimes they are just inner thoughts of old...or about missing something from my past. Thank you M |
