Very nice double 5-7-5. A lot is said in those few words. The photo is perfect.

Too bad you didn't save this for a contest.

I think a man's embrace may offer a sense of physical security, where a woman's offers the emotion stability and acceptance we all crave. Of course the sense of belong that is created though such intimate contact is a reward in itself. I love how your work makes the reader reflective of their own desires. Well done.

Well said! This is a lovely sentiment you have written in your poem. Love has no limitations and feelings on both sides are expressed with the heart. I loved this, thanks for sharing it.

This is a glorious 575 LOVE TWO-FER, richly deserving of the Fanstory accolade of RECOGNIZED. I predict it will attain ALL TIME BEST soon.
Both the artistic text and photo are sweetly harmonious.
ps: I find it in sympathy with my poem "VALENTINE'S DAY" now entered in the VALENTINE POETRY contest ending soon. Reviewers say its TRIPLICATE acrostic has never been seen on FS. Pls take a peek, let me know what you think. Lastly, I have become your Fan. Blessings. john

This is one of those occasions when doubling 5-7-5 does not equal 10-14-10. This tiny two stanza 5-7-5 sets out a wish in the first stanza and a factual statement relating to it in the second. Set together together they make an engaging poem but either has the poetic strength to stand alone.

Stay With Me is a lovely double 5/7/5 poem Linda full of love and tenderness.
Beautiful artwork to accompany this piece.
An embrace from the one you love, man, woman or child is truly heartfelt.

Very nicely done my friend.

Blessings
Janet

Very nice indeed, a lovely lune.

Just an alternative thought for the final line (it good as it stands, but just something else I'd thought of that could be woven in) :

'but it's just as true'.

This would then play in to the phrase 'strong and true', as well as suggesting not just love, but constance. Completely your choice, however, it's perfectly nice as it is :)

Great job, and take care.

-James

Speak on. Great conclusive slap, clear precise blade slice, filled with imaginative creativity. Short piece but with its structuring ability to convey a story. In my opinion of this work a pleasant read.

This poem seems to be the words of a very intelligent man who is very much in love.
Sometimes even the lightest hug can give you a lot of strength.

Keep writing

Joan

    Don't mention it, Linda. It is always in the feeling behind the action that makes thing mean the most.
    Have a nice weekend.

A very well-written double 5-7-5. When we can embrace a loved one we feel secure and have a heart warming feeling about the closeness. Moments we cannot easily forget.
