You really write beautiful phrases that capture a whole story in a few words..."I land in familiar territory", "like fruit to the vine". Very nice writing - a pleasure to read.

What a lovely poem. The way you use "when I was beautiful" repetively is very effective in drawing one back to the sense of the earlier time and building up a sense of longing for that time.

In our human existence love appears to slip through our fingers … through no fault … just life and circumstances. A nice reminder that in some time and space beyond our immediate experience, it persists.

I've known some women in their 80's who lost babies when they were young, and yes for them it is "as if yesterday"; they remember every smile, every cry. A very tender poem.

Interesting poem … I like your comment about the horizon as a portal. The fearless and the explorer have always seen it that way, yet so many see the horizon as the limit of their world.

Nice poem... there is a sense of movement ... like a dance filling a stage with grace and motion.

Good poem ... the last line captures what I think is real love. It goes where it goes because it acts from its own nature, independent of the transient characteristics of place or person, seeking neither invitation nor reciprocity. Perhaps love sees what we are often incapable of seeing?

There are no extra words in your poem, yet you fill the page with an image and mood...not an easy thing to do.

A beautiful poem....you capture the reality of living...that lives aren't perfect, but that's OK...we can make peace with the past and find satisfaction with where we have been and where we are.

AngelLight,

I’ve read some of your poems and now I understand the range of your writing. Only when someone is comfortable with silence can they contemplate the complexity of life and understand the true nature of Love, and what it really asks of us.
