Thanks sug for the uplifting review. I hate contest but felt I owed it to myself to try. I have grown so much these past 10 months, I figured ...nothing ventured, nothing gained. :)

I'm in love with this poem! It sounds like we dated the same kind of guys - from the first stanza. LOL The second to last stanza is my favorite. Best wishes to you in the contest.

Thanks, hon, honestly. I need all this wonderful feedback with this going to the ....drum roll...the Committee.

Missy

LOL - that always makes me nervous too!

Nicely written and emotionally driven free verse, Missy. The presentation is a knock out, and you knocked it out of the ole proverbial ball park with your romantic poetic proclamation portraying pure passion, love and trust in someone whom your obviously care very deeply about.

Well done, and I wish the all the best in the contest with this.

My young life was a wreck and I was told I would never find a decent man who would marry me. When I found that man then I was told he was too good for me. We were happily married 36 years 8 months and 2 days when he passed. He was the wind beneath my wings, That is the reason I find your love poem so beautifully written and presented. Patricia

Missy, My life story was made into a radio drama have you heard it. It is an amazing story how God takes care of those who become His children. Let me know if you would like to hear the story and I will share how to hear it on the internet.

Missy,
this is beautiful... I love what you say...

"I wish I could crawl
Right here inside your heart
And stay forever, where I know I will be safe."

how many times have we, as lovers, felt this way?
lovely... just lovely.
One bit of spag, I think:

Alcoholics, womanizer[']s, abuser[']s the lot.
(i don't think any of these should have an apostrophe as they are all plurals, not possessive uses of the words)

good luck in the contest Missy!
Hugs
Cat

I am delighted with this, Cat. I almost feel like a poet. :)
