SIGNS.
Soft as fine cobwebs that dance the vine.
Moist as the droplets that dew last roses.
Warm as first taste of a homemade wine
Is love that once sampled steadily grows.
Harsh as north wind to willow's branches.
Cold as the sea-side's wintery aloneness.
Dry as walled seedlings starved of access.
Is love that once wilted belief overthrows
Winnow moody signs.
Divide chaff from grain.
Re-discover good times
and come, love me again.

it seems we have an established mutual appreciation society in the making ... this is delightful Fay.... Neville
And what could be better my friend - if deserved or not appreciation is always welcomed by poets like me............. thank you sincerely for voting the piece delightful......... x Fay
pleasure's all mine....
A fine write Fay. Pity it started me singing (lol)!. The old(ish) song with that line 'Come love me again'. Annie's Song by John Denver, 1974.
Yes, it seems Summery when in love; Wintry when having lost it. Aww.
And add my vote - super work.
Thanks for sharing & caring FAY ! In the last 15 years Brian & I have experiences both the ecstasy & agony of Love shared & Love spurned : BUT: since I met Brian it has only been Sweetness & Light ! Brian took a risk leaving me (in my Prime) alone (except for Ruth !) in a beautiful Country full of Beautiful Men and Brian in a College full of Beautiful Ladies. But in both our cases Our Love was much much stronger that TEMPTATION and on this intimate trip we have rewarded each other for our TRUE LOVE FIDELITY ~ AMEN. When Brian flies back to ESSEX on Friday I will die emotionally until OCTOBER when He returns to take me to be with HIM forever & ever AMEN ! You are a LADY FAY so you understand my sentiments. As a MAN ~ Brian is more than I could ask or even think !
Blessings & LOVE ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡
I most surely do understand being female that love and fidelity should go together and your own contentment shows through lines you write - - when two hearts beat as one others do not stand a chance -- and know that although come Friday smiles will be replaced by sighs October is but a few weeks away. Blessings and hugs to you both and meanwhile make lots of great memories.
Spring is in the air and in your words. Hope, faith and renewal.
Now if that picture is of you a couple of years back... did the woodworm in those planks get into your hip? I do worry about things like this you know.
You do find a wonderful way with words creating such an emotional picture.
Thanks for your concern D.A. but my hips are both woodworm free despite doing a lot of watching tides in and out from decks and piers............. as for your visit and lovely comment on Signs a very big slice of appreciation coming your way.......
Another very emotive write, you have such a way with words - true poetry!
A massive thank you Seren for dropping by and reading the Signs then sending such a kind comment.
The ebb and flow of romantic inclinations eloquently expressed: warm and tender in Springtime, cold and severe in Winter.To reap or to sow matters not, Love is the essential intent. A great poem Fay. So well constructed. Loved it. - Phil A.
So pleased you liked the read about Signs my friend. - - love indeed has to be taken warm or cold as it withers or grows in Destiny's garden. Thanks a load for dropping by again Phil.
Oh My word I fine take on Love a most powerful emotion. I have been lucky enough to find it and it has enriched what I already thought was a good life. Thank you for all your words that are becoming available to me my friend
The pleasure is mine dear poet-friend when after reading my work you feel drawn more to the riches of sweet emotion - congrats too for your good fortune in love.
If constant, difficult to measure loves account, need commotion to the emotions for true appreciation.
Your write is full of emotions
My humble thanks for your visit and comment Suresh - - - - -I agree that emotion is needed as we try to express the notion of love.
This is top mptch Fay I enjoyed the form and the flow
Well done again!
Your words will draw love to you Fay.
