I hope you find peace sometime my friend. I'm sure I'd be the same way if my husband were to pass on. Only I don't have a dog so I think I would literally go insane. Hold your doggie close and enjoy the good times.

You sound very alone dear Ine, being older and alone would not be a good thing my friend. Beautifully but sadly written with a melancholy touch to it, well done Ine, blessings, Roy

Your emotion really comes through in this. Excellent description of love like a jewel in a box. I'm sure everything you see in the house is a reminder of your beloved Robert. It does seem possible that animals remember someone who is departed. In your last stanza, I think you mean full moon, not fool moon. Your thoughts are very lovingly and beautifully expressed. judi

So sad, so romantic, so filled with thought, emotions, and loving words. I can sense the heartfelt words that you wrote so well. That's what good writing is suppose to do. It's suppose to make the reader see or feel something. Well, you've done both. Well done.

Hi Ine, this is a wonderful poem. I do know you miss your husband so much. I'm so sorry.
I lasted long, almost forty years. = It lasted long, almost forty years.
Than God and the angels took you home =Then God and the angels took you home
by a fool moon, always a good sign. = by a full moon, always a good sign.
Good luck in the contest. All the best. Ulla :)))

A very well-written free verse poem about a lifetime love that suddenly stopped when one us taken away to heaven. We miss them a lot the only comfort is that we will meet them again one day.

Typos
I(It) lasted long, almost forty years.
Than(Then) God and the angels took you home.
