Where Fled the Tenderness

Where has the romance gone moonlit nights kissing 'til dawn Where fled the tenderness from our love once so strong Where are the conversations that used to matter so much Where are the magic moments when our fingertips touched Where are the sparks that flew from our hearts to our minds Who uncoupled our souls ~ the ties of caring that bind

Beautiful write Gershon.Everything you wrote may die with time but last two lines should never die. May that day never come in anybody's life.

Nicely penned, Gershon, sometimes life gets in the way of romance. Happy holidays my friend. John

Yes, indeed. Life does get in the way of romance, as you wrote -- dirty diapers, sewer backups, and all the rest. Oh, well... Gotta keep the spark alive somehow though. Light and Love, Gershon

The line: who uncoupled our souls...a great line.
