~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Musings of Love" A n affair to remember and cherish B oth of us with bemused smiles every time we met C harismatic in every way, every move D elightness when we were together E ngaging with intriguing conversations F eeling over the moon looking at each other G entle touches, like cozy fire that warmed us H armoniuos talks about music and poetry I nspiring each other by appreciating our talents J uxtoposing songs and topics of conversation K isses, so tender tickling and melting my heart L oving gestures like a mild sweet tug of my hair M eaningful communications through our facial expressions N on stop texting after midnight to wee hours O ur overtures to each other advancing to an affair P iquant melodies he composed, pleasantly stimulating Q uietly strumming our backs with our fingers R emembering the love gestures we shared and S miley or smiley face, the nickname I called him T imes we were together and time I had to let go U nreliable, he was and bothered, concerned me V ital characteristic necessary in friendship, relationship W aiting frustrated me and my feelings waned X any atmosphere we had was diminishing Y appy texts became less and less Z ealousness I felt froze and melted over time

Dear Marlene, your abecedarian poem packs a punch! The initial charm (B, C, D) quickly evolves into an intimate portrait of love (E, F, G), fueled by creativity (H, I) and shared passions (J, K). The tender details (L, M) and late-night conversations (N) paint a captivating picture. But then, the shift (O, P) - his unreliability (U, V) frustrates and diminishes the connection (W, X, Y). The ending (Z) with "zealousness melting" reflects the bittersweet memory. A great lasting impression. blessings, - Daniel

Hello, Daniel. It was a bittersweet love affair... I started this poem last year and stopped and got stuck at R. I guess I only wanted to remember the sweet good memories... I revisited it this morning and felt completing the poem revealing the bitter part and do my final goodbye. Ahh... life is twist and turn.... Enjoy your Sunday. Blessings to you too.
