Good morning to my good friend Jewell. I have always enjoyed your poetry and here is another fine example as to "why?" I took the walk with you this morning and identified with your reasoning. Your poem caused emotions to surface in this ole heart. Great work! Loyd

this is very well written, jewell, a great job writing this beautiful free verse poem about the memories and prayers that make themselves known at night when trying to sleep and waking up alone.

Restless, Fading, Memories, Embraced, Defiant, Awakened, Kisses = Today, I'll dance. This is a poem within a poem. Each of the being line pulls the readers attention to the next line. The artwork chosen really adds to this piece.

    Interesting that you point out the headlines. I was considering editing to make them read more like a sentence. Thanks for your comments.

Excellent free verse which created good imagery. I could see you getting up from your bed reluctantly and stretching your arms. I can see the dreams lingering on your face. I liked your verse, but couldn't follow what you meant by horizontal waltz. Could you pl explain?

    A horizontal waltz would be feeling the music lying down.Had I not woken alone, making love would be considered a " horizontal dance" as well.

This is a moving free verse poem which is perfectly complemented by the artwork while the words have a musicality of their own. The rhythm of the poem suggest falling and falling into a sound sleep. This is an elegant piece of writing.
