It was an interesting read, and I loved the artwork chosen to accompany it. It was good seeing you again. Let me know if there's stuff I am missing. I need to get my act together as well.

This is a great poem with the right answer at the end. Living with love can't
be beat. I do enjoy blank verse but simply can't write it. This was very good and makes me jealous. You write great prose and now prove you can write really good blank verse.

What a powerful poem! I think you've done a wonderful job with this poem.
The phrase "dust that's blown away by wings of Death" is haunting yet beautiful! I love the way you end with the question about love being enough. Keep sharing these profound insights! They are wonderful to read.

Hey Tony, I have always been fascinated by cemeteries and the tombstones with a person's name and two dates; Date of birth and death, leaving one to wonder about all the in-between.
