Geez, the sadness comes through enveloping everything. What can one say. You write so well ... It's truly difficult for me to judge why you write the way you do.

I thought this was a glorious love ode to a wife right up until the end. I was hit with a feeling of broken hearted tragedy for the author and was surprised to find this was infact a sad love ode. I loved the surprise at the end it was a wonderful twist (in a writing sense not the unrequited love).

This is beautiful Love Poetry. The reader-friendly language
makes it easy to read and enjoy. The emotions are intense
and the sentiments are sincere. The attached illustration
is a nice accent that enhances the message. Thank You for
your creation.

Had to give you a six for this one, it is an incredibly beautiful poem with an unexpected little twist at the end. Your writing is fabulous, I loved "I couldn't hate a world that you were a part of", I loved all of it... thus a six-star rating, you deserve it. :) Sandra

I think this is a great ode and entry for the contest. This is a nice reflection back on a memory that was but never was.

    I am just delighted that you enjoyed this. I hadn't written in years when I wrote this to gain the attention of the pretty girl that is the subject of this ode. it got me writing again! also happy that in spite of the form it is being accepted as an ode which I believe it is. thank you very much. mike

Hello Mike,
an Ode well worth reading and reviewing . What I liked was your natural voice written with ease and nothing forced
I can see why you put your thought into a song

Gert

    thank you very much. like you I enjoy just writing what I feel and let the rules console themselves. sometimes I follow a structure but, this is more fun and I can say exactly what I mean. best regards, mike
