Note: My last poem for 2018 was dark and tragic. Here my first poem of 2019,
tho' sad, expresses recollections of a beautiful memory of my youth and
the afterthoughts of mistakes made and written verses of hope of forgiveness
from a truly beautiful,kind and remarkably gentle soul, that I once loved.
I hope you may see the depths of regret one feels when they fully comprehend 
a fantastic treasure was by wild and youthful folly thus lost.
To Dream This, Love Forgives, When I Call Out Her Name Your kiss, its memory ambrosia for this lonesome heart you I so miss, these many decades we have been apart Your sexy eyes, sent passionate waves into wanting soul yes we said our goodbyes, but these years alone took a toll Your grace and beautiful mind, perhaps I miss all the more time has been unkind, my sorrow was in closing that door! Pray I, your huge heart forgave, that raving fool I became and your mercy save, as I now utter your lovely name Our last dance, sweetest of nights, before our love fell apart lost romance, greatest tragedy was my breaking your heart This mercy I beg now, will renew this sad, weak spirit when I cry your name, if you cry out mine, I will hear it! Your kiss, its memory ambrosia for this lonesome heart you I so miss, these many decades we have been apart Your sexy eyes, sent passionate waves into wanting soul yes we said our goodbyes, but these years alone took a toll Your grace and beautiful mind, perhaps I miss all the more time has been unkind, my sorrow was in closing that door!

The fish that got away, Robert. I think a lot of us have had one, maybe even two. If she reads this she may now fall head over heels for you. Excellent heartfelt write my dear friend. Hoping for a healthier and Happier New Year for you...All the very best...Charlie

Very sad; I know it has to have been painful. Nevertheless, we live, make our mistakes, make up for some; guilting ourselves doesn't help but, we do it. She must've been very special; she'd no doubt would appreciate your words.
