Nice, warm and sweet. Speaks of how our busy lives can cause us to miss out. A suggestion, instead of " She always feels... try She always looks or appears. You have never met her or spoken how can you know her feelings? Not meaning to be nasty, but this is really nice and its about curiosity and your missed opportunity. The line, No one's seen her since, would support your last line better if read "I haven't seen her since." Still I like it and can feel the warmth you wrote it with.

C'mon, Artasylum . . .

Like I'm supposed to judge this piece in any way, shape or form? It's perfect just the way it is. Pure, like the best of spring waters.

I'm pretty sure you're the Gem, silly woman!

Well done. Please post more.

Always in a rush and never having the time to stop and smell the roses. Well that's our society today. What a sad little poem. But it's also a very well written lil poem with a great subject.

This is such a sad story because so very often it is true. Those of us that are kind enough to think of the homeless are often too busy (or think we are) to stop and make a difference. Very well written and heart-breaking poem, my friend~Debbie

Oh my gosh! This is such a powerful poem. It is so true, that tomorrow never comes and that we should do as our gut tells us when it tells us. Thanks for posting this. It has really made me think. God bless you in all you do.

Artasylum,

I think that this poem is on the sad side. Thoughts are expressed and described well.
The arrangement is fine, smoothly readable and understandable. Created impressions through the descriptions are vivid, forceful and making the reader think about it.

I saw no SPAG and no typos. It was very clean.

The words you chose worked well.

I look forward to seeing you again.

Love you,

Oatmeal

How sad and how futile is the promise of tomorrow. Your poem echoed that sentiment effectively through the visual images created by the author in each stanza. Thanks for the excellent write. God bless.

This is a heart warming and sad poem all in one. I like how your sequence was developed and the flow of the plot/theme was good too. Well done on this.
