Hello Jesse,
It's good to see you posting poetry again, though the topic is sad
in the nicely rhymed poem. Time is your friend as pain transforms
into warm memories that are cherished forever.
I like the idea of a lingering moment that crystalizes from within.
Perfect choice of art work.
Best wishes to you, my friend.
Robert

    Hello Robert.
    First of all, thank you for the six stars. I am honored to receive them from such a refined poet.
    I hope you are right and time transforms into warm memories that will last forever.
    I am glad you like the artwork. David and I both loved the sea and dolphins swimming in it seemed to hit the spot.
    Best wishes to you as well, my friend.

"Creating a cherished memory

Tenderly placed on my lover's skin" .... I love it.

It's sad to part but sometimes is okay. It sounds like you parted on good terms.

I'm very emotional and don't deal with separation well.

You expressed yourself in a very poetic and romantic way. Well done, Jesse

    We parted on good terms yet the grief grips me so much it hurts to breathe.
    I'm emotional as well.
    Thank you for your kind words.
    Coming from you I consider this a virtual six with such high praise for poetry.
    Thanks, Maraval.

Wow! This was so sad. It reminded me of when my husband passed away. I'm sorry that you have had to experience a loss as deep as this one obviously was. You did a great job voicing the feelings.

Dear Jesse,

I will update to six stars, tomorrow. I'm sorry to hear this, my Friend. I do know, from my own life, at least, that with every single change, something better was sent to me. Now, every day, I can share all of life's changes with Chris. I am sure your life is preparing you for something better.

Keep strong and know that I care.

Thak you for bravely sharing this that is written so well. :) Alex

This poem, Moments Linger, presented with three ABCB-rhymed quatrains, captures the moments that have been important, especially in a time for healing. Life moves on.

When we change direction in life we can lose a friend, so many when was young, not any more, friend's lives have evened out. Thank you for sharing your inner and outer life with us Jesse, blessings Roy
