L. B. Mek

 

by any chance, are you

stealing a glance

at your wife of twenty years

my love

 

not quite, my sweet

I’m merely partaking in my favourite

passion

this be what I refer to, as stargazing

    What a wonderful thought and thing to say. It reflects like the light of the stars the shining light of the energy behind it. Words of love.

    • L. B. Mek

      (right? who said romance was dead
      as long as fantasy exists
      so do our sweet words and dreams)
      glad you could relate dear Poet
      'words of love', indeed!

    • crypticbard

      This is so sweet and endearing without being mushy, good stuff here L.B.

      • L. B. Mek

        well, it is kinda mushy
        or rather, as mushy as I can get
        without peas involved
        lmao
        (forgive me, my sense of humour
        is faulty, mashed by time
        like me potatoes n rhymes..
        ..
        .....
        with no gravy to save me..
        ..
        .....)

        The playful nature of this poem is so endearing. It's goes to show, that the little things we say often mean the most. I just loved this and it is a fav!

          ('endearing'
          such a marginalised word
          endearing words and actions
          go a long way, in my books
          a big fan of subtlety's, touch..)
          so glad you enjoyed the read my friend
          hope you have a lovely valentines day

          A truly romantic way of describing a love that is still young after twenty years. A heart-tugging write.

          • L. B. Mek

            'love that is still young'
            (in defiance of the passing of time)
            this is what i wanted to capture, dear Fay
            thank you for distilling it so succinctly
