On Love Ghosts

So hard
to 
hold love
now
in the moment
between
a caress
and 
a look
too strong
too hesitant
too weak
too steady

To watch
it
glide down
and
away 
from my body,
it's sighs
gone quiet

To know it
didn't find
peace
with me.

Gry, with your poetic talent you can write sonnets!! Just start writing them and they'll improve mightily and fast in my opinion.

A magnificent free verse my friend. I hope all is well with you and pray you will honor us with more writes , perhaps a sonnet or three. Keep that very gifted pen flowing my friend!!!

Hi Robert Thank you so much for your positive words and attitude. It means a lot. I love to write (obviously) , but sonnets...........I'm not sure I'm there yet. :) I am more of a spur of the moment, somewhat spontaneous writer. I strive to catch a moment, a feeling, a picture, a thought and pen it down in words. Therefor I even find it hard sometimes to call my writes "poems" , I much often call them "observations".
