A magical, beautifully composed poem. It was so heartfelt. Your emotion was palpable and engaging.

I take my hat off to you. I love this poem. Jacqueline

    So sorry for this late response Jacqueline and thank you for the lovely review and precious six stars.
    My husband is recovering nicely from heart surgery so hopefully we have many more tomorrows.
    Grandson's brain surgery while he was traveling in Taiwan was also very successful and he is back home with family.
    Everyday is a gift and we feel His blessings everyday.
    Thank you again my friend.
    Blessings to you and yours.

As I read this beautiful poem, my thoughts strayed from comparisons in seasons over the world to that feeling you describe. The imagery of reality and the joy in the memories. I loved the way you tantalise the imagination yet your words could not possibly offend Well done I love it

So true that we should always treasure those lovely memories of that starting romance with our beloved as life brings us new challenges. I'm sorry to hear that you are now the caregiver which tells me that your husband's health has worsened. Thank you for sharing this lovely poem.

Excellent, that special night/time of love will always be a memory that we cherish, "Sensations from your tender touch.
Your arms feel like a warm cocoon.
The murmurs lovers dare to share
as we recall that night in June."
this stanza is so very touching, very well written and presented****kahpot

And it is a hard road to travel from spouse and lover to caregiver and friend, but like you say, the memories are yours to remember always. Hold on Janet, and remember to look after yourself as well.
Cheers.
