These short poems are great, leaves the reader to wonder more, want more, but still satisfied with feeling that moment in time. :)

Indeedy, Casarah, an enjoyable challenge in it's brevity. Makes my brain hurt, sometimes. Thanks for stopping by, hope you're ticketty-boo. Viv x

Hey Viv, didn't realize you entered. Sorry for not visiting sooner. Great poem, sad and dark. Could easily fit in Romeo and Juliet.

Sorry, James, but it wasn't placed. Anyway, thanks for popping by for my deeply darkly. Regards, Viv

A very human touch to this poem with an easily understandable story with deep pathos added to it. Emile.

Thanks, Anne Lise, not my normal cheery stuff, but one has to go deeply darkly every now and then. Viv x

Great poem,four lines being so limiting. A7

Thanks, Robert, brevity can be quite a challenge. I suppose that's why 'I love you' is so short- any longer, and one would sound like they're running for the Senate. Regards to you and yours, Viv
