Poetry,
like an old lover quite,
she revisits
the nights of endless passion,
the gentle maturing and
comfort of silent days,
and the coloured beauty of fall
as we watch the onset of frost
on graves to come.
She is all this
in the pages
I open.
Please tell me what you think

And much more satisfying than an old lover too.
This is beautiful poetry. "the onset of frost on graves to come"

I tend to relate sad and heart-based poems to the female and angry and head-based poems to the male. Maybe that's something I should talk to my therapist about. LOL. Lovely lilting poem.

Lovely sentiments expressed so well in the flow of these lines - just the right words chosen to pass on this message, Wonderful metaphor used here - could read this one over and over again and never tire of it.

This is beautiful. Comparing poetry to a woman is wonderful. I think; a complement to both poetry and to women.
Love,

This is a pretty write.
Nicely done. -
I was thinking of the quite
myself
love it. Quirky enough to be either ancient or modern. Beautiful, really in its tenderness.
Often I read and just don't know what to say to do the poem justice so I just read and take it with me and somedays when words seem more accessible, I come back and let you know.

memories touch us in so many way within the passion that we hold within the heart..
gentle as we can...
and in doing so
it makes impact within our lives!
well said my friend!
Keep penning on one stroke at a time!

John . . . soft and gentle, tinged with a hint of sorrow . . . beautifully done my friend!!!!

"quite" makes this poem seem of another era (which would make sense, considering the author), and adds a charm to a poem already charming. This is really a quick ride through a lifetime, isn't it? Poetry does touch us in all those places, which is why we love her.
Nicely done, John.

How dare you write about writing.
She is all of this
and that.
Isn't She?

This is what I consider poetry in the purest sense of the word. It made me misty-eyed.
Lovely.
