Love\'s Tune
spilleronsheet said:

A beautiful quote
With a lovely ode accompanying
Love, a silly music
Lovers the musician banding own melodies
Very beautiful dear Fay

Love\'s Tune
L. B. Mek said:

Amen!
\'composes, more
than
just, music\'
what a beautifully worded analogy, dear Fay
(More, than the drumming beat
of flustered heart\'s
and percussion\'s tapping, fingers
of fearful trepidation
Love\'s ballads, paint our lives
with a whole orchestic movement
of experience
not merely sample size, melodies...)

Love\'s Tune
Keith said:

I like this, Fay - could even be crafted into a wonderful sonnet. The abstract nature of love is captured well here.

Back Then
spilleronsheet said:

A lovely chemistry with feelings of regret
The words “back then” itself kept me hooked
Loved these lines inked so intelligently
“Fermented in thrills they became
effervescently fueled,
felt mercurial bliss galvanized to
an exciting level

back then.”

Back Then
Michael Edwards said:

Melancholic tides
sweep slowly
as memory recalls
back then.

And it\'s a big tick from me.

Back Then
L. B. Mek said:

\'Intoxicated
with evocative love,
heady
with rapture, exhilaration
captured
their every need of sensation

back then.

Fermented
in thrills: they became...\'
(I just can\'t help
feeling like these words
encapsulate
that \'blossoming of romance\', sensation
so acutely)
what a Brilliant verse, dear Fay
another beautifully worded
\'modern Ode\': to Love!
thank you

I LOVE THE WAY THE REPETITION OF \'BACK THEN\' BRINGS IT ALL BACK TO REALITY - HOW THE MAGIC HAS WANED...VERY MOVING

A very descriptive write. Mornings are the best time of day, their existence gives one hope for the joy of living. They let one feel a part of humanity. If winter is waning and one senses Spring approaching, then they are greatly appreciated. Thank you for instilling a ray of sunshine on a rather dreary day here. - Phil A

P.S. - we were dumped on with two feet of snow last night.
P.P.S - I think it was Mel Brooks or Carl Reiner who said, \"I get up in the morning, open the newspaper and read the Obits. If my names not in there then I get dressed.\"

A wonderful break of winters
Maybe it’s spring soon
You shirked off the laziness in me dear Fay
Sunny and warm I felt in every way

Such a shame when old trees disappear, what wonderful stories they could have told.

An old English oak; your lovely piece bought out the nostalgia in me, Fay.

My first love in the tree realm, even though the sycamore provided the helicopters and the horse chestnuts provided the conkers.

Words as majestic as that oak tree. Such a loss will be a long time missed.
But that \"gone-tree\'s, ghostly presence\" may remain in one\'s mind.
A bit of sadness expressed in a \"sagely magnificent\" manner.
A solid poem Fay, causing one to ponder our dependence on trees.
Loved it. - Phil A.

A wonderfully written heart-warming homage here Fay.

These mighty trees are a true testament to the immense strength of nature, though sadly, everything has it\'s time to go, but I hope that the tree that replaces it, will be just as magnificent.

Bravo, and I hope that all is well!

There\'s no real match for the magnificence of an Oak, such a nice read dear poet Faye. Sorrows reflections with light on the horizon; heartening to old poets, who dream of renewal as Spring awakens creatures great and small. Stay creative my friend!

Admired the lovely lines
Where so skilfully you stitched nature
And I couldn’t stop feeling as if an elder in family is lost
Who was like oak in the family of small plants
I could see my grandmother in that oak tree
Very well crafted dear Fay
