But even though they face opposite directions, "The sweet somethings calmly spoken" show us that they are not starved for love but have a deeper love than what meets the eye. Beat wishes in the contest!

    Thank you so much for your review. I know they aren't starved for love, but the prompt stated as long as love was involved. I may be off-center. We will see.

What a nice verse- good picture presentation- very insightful subject - the human condition- made me chuckle because it is so true- in this case -the dew no longer on the rose-they have not lost the connection between their inner children and it is their way of expressing their continuing love- their dance- very insightful- good job

    Thank you, AP, for the review. I think most couples would be lucky to have such a loving and enduring relationship.

This is an honest and ambient write about what happens as couples age and sleep is more important than a bedtime cuddle and there is a mutual respect of each personal space here, I enjoyed the ride, love Dolly x

This is such a sweet poem of long-time lovers. The idea of whispering in the night just before sleep as children did when they were young is lovely. Best of luck in the Starving for Love contest. On problem: calm(l)y

My husband and I slept cuddled together until the time of his death. Sex was a thing long past, but the physical human touch was always a comfort for us. Your poem is nicely executed. Good luck in the contest.

The author's words are filled with meaning and I enjoyed the read of this
poem. I pondered on aging as this author describes an enduring love.
The poem is descriptive and creative as it addresses many aspects of aging together. The artwork is awesome and compliments this poem well.

Hello, Mystery Writer!
Beautiful images that resonate clearly and dearly with me!
When my husband and I "hunker down for the night," well, "she faces east

and he faces west when they sleep." Clockwork.

Thank you for sharing!
Best Wishes!

Hmm, not sure if either is starving for love here, but then in this contest you have the option of to make the theme to your desire. What you have does present love, and I think by making the couple senior citizens, you'll get more of FanStory members (also seniors) to welcome your piece. (Smart move).

    Hahaha...It's a poem I wrote long before being on FS. It's in my book. However, it does have the potential on this site to have a captive audience. Thanks for the review.
