Your river of Love keeps flowing into my heart, I keep the Love flowing, doing my part. Happy Valentines Day, my valentine forever. :-) Thanks for the sweet gifts this morning, you're the best. Your chocolates are on their way. That had to find another truck, the first one broke down from too heavy of a load. :-) Big Bear Hugs, Bill

Great metaphors plus emotions. I also wonder if you disliked my pantoum.

thanks Victor for your visit and positive comments. I read your Pantoum late this afternoon and left some comments. Yes, I liked it...thought it was both poignant and sad. Have a pleasant evening, Sara

I think your gently flowing river describes what I know of the love you share with Bill. Constant and smooth... oh a little ripple once in a while keeps the water flowing. lol

you're most kind, Lin. You're right, our love is constant and smooth (most of the time). Every relationship has challenges, but we're committed to the 'river.' Have a pleasant evening, hugs, Sara
