No I am not married. If a Christine ever comes along I just might.

I thought I was fully prepared for what I was about to encounter, especially after reading one of your other poems. Alas I was greatly mistaken! I stood ready to dive into another whimsical piece BUT..... I could not make it past the first stanza with a gut-wrenching laugh. THANK YOU I much enjoyed and need this. Which breed did you finally settle on? more »

You are one that needs no make up. Not for self, nor or reflection. You are true to yourself on both form and function

this piece will also be in a book I am working on in spirituality
I am glad it has resonated with you on such a deep level

Grounded expectations is all we can hope for. Even with some of my works, often I will ask myself, why? We can only hope that one particular pieces resonates with someone. Bite your tongue on the 4th stanza cause we can agree to disagree. more »

thank you. Ibwas having fun writing this and challenging myself. Somehow I kept being reminded of Anabel Lee

Very heart felt from beginning to end

This is a great testament to yourself and others that fight that battle. We look forward to the R-

Very well said. I was hoping there woukd be a stanza in Portuguese. You are not alone we are out there, the ones who speak poetry like a second language

Truly whimsical and clever. I had to try and stop myself from laughing while remembering I can switch up in my own works if I'm not careful.

Emotionally heart felt expression to seize every moment.

Its sad when people take for granted someone that goes above and beyond them. They realize too late that they had a good thing going. I guess some of us shall walk alone.

The answer still remains to be seen. When it is answered, expect another poem

I never heard the song but it was clear long before his mention who and what this piece is about

There is great imagery and a stern resolution to facing challenges in "I stand unmoved, come what may." It shows that stong determination to be unbothered by by challenges
