Great! I needed to read and hear some things like this to rekindle the fire of love within my heart. Don't worry... I'll be reading them all. c", mae

Oh, you are too kind, c", mae. You don't have to read all of them. I just wanted to show you that I do write things other than spooky, creepy horror poems, LOL. Even I need a break from the dark stuff every once in a while. :}

Wow this is certainly a very different side to you Dean!! I'm used to your dark poetry but this romantic piece of poetry is wonderful, sigh.....

Thanks, Wendyanne. I do occasionally delve into other genres besides horror every now & then. Even I need to get away from it once in awhile, LOL.

Believe it or not.

Thanks for the glowing rating and review. I'm very grateful. :)

Congrats Dean. You know there is a certain perfection in staying with someone that you loved right from the beginning, even though love wanes and then ripens again all through two lives lived as one. I don't know but this is lovely and very assuring. Well done you. xoxo deborah

Thanks a bunch, Nancy. Some have thought this to be a bit of a stretch for me, seeing as how I primarily write dark poetry and horror prose. However, it is far easier for me to write of such things because I truly have such a great love in my life. Real-life is far easier to draw inspiration from than anything fictional could ever be.

Thanks again for the wonderful rating and thoughtful comments, nancy. They are appreciated. :)

You are a wonder with the words, Dean, be it horror, romance or any other thoughts that come into your mind. This is another lovely poem and a much deserved win. When I went through your portfolio, I couldn't help but be impresses with the amount of contest wins you have had. Impressed, but not surprised. A wonderful poem and a pleasure to read. :) Sandra

Aw-w-w, you're far too kind, Sandra. And winning contests is not really what it's all about, although it is nice when it happens. I just try to make sure I put my everything, into whatever I write, and then hope for the best.

Thanks for the wonderful compliments and glowing review. As always, i greatly appreciate them. :}

A deserved winner.

As I said in my last review, you are indeed a skilled writer one of the best on the site.

Your words can either horrify or beautify. This one most definitely falls into the second category.
