You once gave me such a thrill, eager To meet you with a yearning heart full So hungry, thirsting for your vibrant Flow of crimson devotion, love so Alive with serenity and dreams Awakening hope within my soul Lighting up my whole life with kindness Exploding with whispers of feeling Caressing my spirit with soft warmth Painting my nature with hues of hope Brilliant shades of joy and soothing faith Singing to my soul of fond friendship You once gave me a feeling that was Filled with loving vows resonating Within, where every vision gossips About the longings that thrive inside Where wonders embrace all my beliefs Assure my dreams that they will have wings Encourage my love to feel real Like the sun rising round the mountains Touching the cold limbs and branches with Warmth from the middle of the fond heart Catching the touch of moments breathing Flawless grace through the spirit’s essence You once gave me promises of love Today you sigh grimly of wrinkles And tresses that resemble silver Where I once shone with vibrant color And smoothest skin roaring innocence Birthday, my friend, go back where you’ve been Watered Down Juice Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Edward Ibeh January 1, 2021

Beautiful Regina! Love the phrase "Painting my nature with hues of hope". Such an apt rendition of the loss of love.

Real beauty is unseen and only the eyes of the soul can perceive it, The one that unable is to love that way is not worthy been loved! Happy New Year dearest, Regina! Blessings!

We all get old. Every one tells me how well I look. but like the cake, the outside looks bright. The inside is what counts. Oh well. Let's live day by day and wish each other a happy holy day. ~~

Gina, your poem is wonderful, I felt like I was being carried on a wave and then, I came crashing down, aging can for sure be a watered down image of self, best of luck in the contest _Constance
