My Love

You! My Love, your flower blooms sweet scented pure and gentle. Breathless beauty, joyful tears wet my face when I see you. My heart flutters with your touch. My soul sings when you smile. Soft and smooth you soothe me, adrift forever in your sigh. I float on air when I'm with you. Lost am I when you are gone my delicate magnificent beautiful blossom, you make me whole! 10/26/15

Oh James don't say that - after 25 years you are still together and that is the secret of marriage not to give up at the first hurdle - we celebrate our 25th next year - we are stronger than ever after Bob's cancer:-) hugs Jan xx

very romantic one here, aren't they fun to write? the trick is to get on a roll with them, once you manage to do that it's difficult to cast off, as i found out! good luck in the contest :)

James Inman

Thanks Charlotte, I agree, once it starts flowing its hard to stop.

thanks for catching my typo, Ralph. I need to hurry and do one of these anacreontic things!! Actually it seems we can just write almost anything and be sure to divide up our words so we are not using more than three or four syllables per line! You did very well with this challenge, my friend.

James Inman
Date: 11/3/2015 8:52:00 AM

It was a very fun write, almost like writing your thoughts without restrictions. Short snippets of feelings. Thanks, Andrea.

Thank you Viv, strong yes, but it always amazes me how fragile everything in life is. Not something to take for granted.

Such a beautiful, sweet comment, but its my only emotional release, SKAT, otherwise my wife finds me emotionally void. I'm quite sure you will find someone who can share their emotions much more eloquently than I ever could.
