Not Left In the Cold

A cold December day not to long ago... Our hands slipped apart as one was to go... The chill on my neck I can still feel as if frozen in time... I sat on the bench and searched for reasons I could never find... My eyes tearing from the cold as I gazed over the pathway to the trees... My heart was floating and tossed around the frozen baron sea... I could still see the table where we shared our first picnic and kiss... On that warm spring day,I never thought it would be a love I would have to miss... I take from that a lesson that I hold tight and dear... I will forever remember to love with no boundaries or fear...

Yes, as James below me said, this one is very touching, Michael. I could really see this person just pondering his lost love on a cold December day!

So sad and touching, Michael. You let the reader share a gently recalled memory. Like the way you ended it by explaining how you'd grown from this experience. Love, Carolyn
