harry, thanks for you comment. I do laugh a lot! This poem is short. So it leaves room for interpretation. Is it just the pain of a temporary goodbye, a death or a breakup? These are the questions I ask myself. This is a pleasure to think about. Great job.

Wow...this is intense. Really good. Thanks for your wonderful comments on my "Sweet Visions" poem. It was my first imagism. Hugs, Holly

Intresting, I think I will stay away from this guy, at least for the next hour or so.

Wow. Such a great impact this one was for me. You certainly get under the skin of the reader--please dont...stab me...? *innocent smile* :D Always, Laura

This is a loaded one, Harry... it makes me wonder what the story could be behind this-- almost like a suspense novel or movie in my mind. definitely a different way to say goodbye...I hope you are having a good weekend!
