To Love Again

Very touching theme.
This had a good rhyme scheme and the meter: 3 quatrains/2 couplets repeated gave a good cadence to the work.
The emotional tension was pronounced as the poem began and your loneliness was highlighted, but the conclusion brought the welcomed resolve.
Well done.

Oh, Sandra, how thrilled I am for you! Warm congratulations to you and your husband. You describe the sadness turned to happiness very well in your poem, and how your feelings will remain heart-felt for Brian. Best wishes in your new life... and the contest.

Very nice lines with rhymes that play well from beginning to end.
First love is never forgotten. We have the capacity to love... to give ourselves away to others, to share our life with many friends. Loss on one hand can be a blessing on another.
Your story-poem is a fine read.

That is so true, our emotions can take us from the depth of despair to the great heights of happiness. We can share other peoples' joy and share their grief. I have learnt that on this site especially. Thank you so very much for your wonderful review. :) Sandra.

Sandra this is a beautifully penned tribute to your husband, Brian. I wish I had six stars left to award it to your poem. That being said, you've expressed so much here, the ache of the undisturbed pillow yet the days teaching you that you will always have his love. And he likewise will always have your. And this is sustains you and gives you hope. Renewed in the love and embrace of your growing family. Loren

What a lovely thing to say, thank you so very much, Pili. I am sorry to hear you have experienced the same thing, though, it is so hard to lose someone you love completely. I wish you much happiness in your life. :) Sandra xsx

Comment from Ben Colder
The right thing to do when widowed if the occasion occurs, especially being young enough to have children. Your poem is pleasing. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Caressa_08
Some things are meant to be...Even though your first love has passed, Unfortunately...And, then, your poetry reveals that this wedded love to Graham has been a help to you. So very romantic, even for the second time. I liked the rhyme, & "To Love Again."...Deserving, for me it seems, and quite a nice read, for it to reap six stars.
