    • That is beautiful. I do not see where you can improve on that.

      • Hi, Fia! 🌸

        How wonderful to hear your sweet voice this morning, sharing the loveliness of approval for this rather romantic little poem.

        You truly are appreciated and enjoyed! ⁓ Rascal🖌

    • Ohhh, Adira,
      You’ve taken a second bite’a my apple this morning 🍎
      First, S i m p a t i c o … now, this!

      Welcome back, Dear Poetess À Moi 🌺
      With such effulgent sentiments, it’s no wonder the bouquet of your utterances have left a hopeful bard yearning the gentle touch of your satin caress.

      Ahhh, that “she” were more truth than fiction, what succulently delightful splendor such a blessing would be.

      Thank you, Lady Adira, ever-so warmly, for sharing your lovely presence and encouraging accolades!
      Mornin’ hugs to Thee! ⁓ Rascal🖌

    • I’ve yet to see someone of your caliber when it comes to poetry, Richard. Your professionalism stands out.
      A great offering my friend. 🙂

      • And, my very excellent, longtime friend, I thank you most gratefully for bestowing such a high caliber review upon this romantic little homage.

        Gosh, Tim!
        I must apologize for missing your inspiringly gracious review … but, I’ve quit receiving email notices from SR on reviews and messages, etc.

        I’ve always enjoyed whatever you share with me! ⁓ Richard🖌

    • Greetings, Adira 🥀

      Thank you for your time taken to read and review this rather poignant piece in homage to a failed romance.
      The verse you’ve selected to highlight (I think) is the core of this work … good eye and insight in understanding it’s significance.

      Your praise inspires me, too … hugs! ⁓ Richard🖌

    • This is sweet. You capture innocence seen on a young girl from a males pov. Enjoyed this

      • Thank you sincerely, Fia 🌾

        I’m so very pleased you found favor and enjoyment in this poetically masculine version of a few moments in a young girl’s blossoming.

        Your words inspire me.

    Dad, It's Snowing!

    solid white plains meet the horizon crystalized fine like powder   ice figures sculpted by free hand on every tree   wind swaying arctic breath flowing silently snowflakes dance   innocent eyes childhood ideas good memories nestled inside   from the window looking outward deep in thought weaving beauty   when a voice so familiar warms my soul with splendor   my son says.. Dad, it’s snowing!!     Copyright @ Damian DeadLove...

    • Awww that is so sweet. Nice memory.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Fia. So glad you enjoyed the write my friend. I don’t always give a lot of tender moments in my writes. lol. Tell you the truth, they’re the biggest reason I quit drinking. Appreciate you.

    • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you enjoyed the write my friend. I don’t show my tender side often, this one was letting my guard down, big time. It was a special memory, in fact they’re the biggest reason I quit drinking. That and I didn’t want to damage them mentally by not understanding why daddy drinks so much. I didn’t want to scar them. I brought tears to my own eyes now. Best choice I ever made. Appreciate you.

    • Born in Minnesota so snow has a special place in my heart. Although I prefer to watch it through a window. When the kids get excited about it, it’s like magic is happening. My daughter is a huge winter fan. She talks about how she would beg to go out in snowfall & I would bundle her up to keep her warm. Made sense to me. She saw it differently…”Mom, I was bundled so snug I practically needed to be folded to get on my sled. I was a starfish!” This one brought back memories…& laughter, my friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I liked snow until I grew up, and had shit to do. It’s a love/hate deal. In your defense, it never hurts to be prepared in the elements. lol. Thanks for sharing a snow memory my friend. Appreciate you.
