This is a beautiful, moving nonet poem, which could be taken in at least two ways--probably your intention. The speaker could be widowed, healing, and dealing well with the loss or someone moving on after a break up. Either way the speaker is in an improving frame of mind.

    Great review, Janice! It was the moving on after an ugly break up that I experienced last week. Very therapeutic and extremely liberating. Of course it took me a few years to get there. lol Your comments are lovely and I appreciate them very much. Thank you! Lynda

What a positive take on a relationship that wasn't meant to be. Sweeping the swirling regrets from your mind, embracing the winds of change and moving forward to face the future is the way to go. You express this transition very well. Good luck on the contest.

Very nicely constructed nonet, Linda. I like the resolution and the winds of change.

Fine, fine form with a little wistful love for good measure.

Wishing you much luck with the Contest Committee with this gem. :))

A very fine poem weaving a tapestry of pleasant memories, with a beautiful picture attached. I love the line " The breeze of your memory now warm." Lovely presentation.

A very well-written Nonet a love relationship that went wrong but there is no point contemplating about what could have been but rather breath in deep and exploring new opportunities with the wind in you hair.

Life is all about change, Lynda, from bad to good, from good to better, from better to best and then that in-between that's not so bad. :) I like your Nonet it speak of love and a needed change. Good to hear from you. :) Thank you for sharing.

I'm glad to see you finally post something again, Lynda. It's been way too long. And then to top it off with this perfectly formed nonet. I'm happy to see you can let a passed relationship not let the woes of it hold more worth than the good. Excellent contest entry, L. I wish you the very best of luck. Great write. Have a great day.

    Thank you, girl. This is actually something I personally experienced last week. Talk about therapy! LOL So I wanted to write about it as I thought it was so cool to have this happen to me. And nothing is really done until you post it, eh? Much appreciated, sweetie!
reply by Diana L Crawford on 06-Nov-2019
    Yeah, I got that feeling because of other things you have mentioned, so it was really nice to see such a beautiful "love myself" attitude from you!! makes me jump with joy, my friend!! :)
