Hi, Missy

- Indeed, don't know how or why, but just a word can do IT -- or a look. (*<*)
_ Beautifully penned and presented with a stunning piece of artwork.
_ Good stuff for us 'romantics.'

Cheers & Blessings

    Some people will NOT refer to me as Jax, not even Jackie, just Jacqueline, so why not sign off on all three? LOL

    My dad called me: Jacksy--I reserve that one for just 'moi'. (*<*)

Hello there to my good friend. This was another powerfully romantic poem, it certainly speaks to the soul. Very nice and blessed is the one for whom it was first intended. Loyd

    Hello, Loyd, I am delighted that you enjoyed my poem. It was written with my heart but alas unrequited, if the truth be known. lol.

    Thank you again,

    Now that's a shame. It seems that you have so much to give and are so enriched with the beauty of life which is easily recognized in your poetry. I am sure you spoke to and for someone. My best to you. Loyd

Love, love the photo! Goes perfect with your words. Yes, I have felt this. Sometimes all it takes is that single word to make your heart flutter and feel like it's going to beat out of your chest. I miss that. Haven't felt that in a long time, but will always remember how it made me feel.
Thanks for bringing that memory to me. I always enjoy reading how you put words together that is so heartfelt. I can tell you write from your heart.
Shana :)

Okay, Missy, my detective instincts tell me there may be a certain someone "across the pond" that is causing your heart to race with mere words. Hmmm....a fellow FanStorian?

Good poem--love the physical lay out--makes for a dramatic ending. Well done!

This is a sweet declaration of love that anyone would be thrilled to receive. As well as being beautifully expressed it is thoughtfully presented in cursive script, with the short lines getting shorter until the point of this stiletto plunges into the heart of the targeted one like Cupid's arrow.

My 'heart races' at strolling speed nowadays, Missy, and if it ever got into second gear, I'd worry about the consequences. LOL.

Anyway, you express the powerful effect a special writer - or absent lover - has on you, extremely well.

Best wishes, Ray xx

I do understand that feelings you experience from a special one that can make your heart racing like a horse even before you open the text message that special one send.

    Hi, Sandra, thanks for the lovely review. Sometimes we wonder if what we write will touch another. I am delighted when I see one of mine has.

I don't know, Missy, it sounds pretty autobiographical to me. What aren't you telling us here? LOL, it does seem like the poem's protagonist is on the short end here, and I'm wondering if he is waiting as breathlessly as she.

Hello Justafan :)

I love your poem. It is so romantic.... it reminds me of that special someone I had in my life. We are no longer together but I don't think I will ever forget that feeling. Great presentation. Awesome free verse style and delightful flow. Good job!
