You

You are a wonder spoke softly,
lest the angels hear and steal you away,
to make heaven a better place.

You are a dream slept sweetly,
for the pain of living will not touch us,
such beauty is not the day's to spoil.

You are a melody sung early,
a note within the morning,
a song for birds to trill.

You soar them through the sky.

You are my heart heard beating,
sustaining me when you're not near,
a strength, a wonder spoke softly.

I love this one, because it is gentle and simple. It doesn't try to be complex, and somehow in its quietness, it speaks volumes. Very nice...

How lovely this is. Quiet and pleasing and deep. A perfect expression of love.

Despite my tendency to be dark and angry, I have to admit, this was well done. I felt kind of early American romanticism in it, but you had me feeling like I was enjoying a perfect sunny day on the softest grassy knoll in the best place at the best time ever. So well done. I also wanted to say thank you for your criticism, I'm not being sarcastic either, you gave me some very good ideas on one of my poems and I appreciate you taking the time to do such a thing. I look forward to reading more of your work.

Nora, I'm so glad you pointed out that you think of your baby when you read this poem. I wrote it for a deep, abiding love it doesn't matter who you label with it, as long as you feel it strongly.
