This was very passionate but also nostalgic. It had the hidden intimacy of those old movies. It let's my imagination stop or keep going, not in my face gratuitous raw and raunchy. The mention of Jasmin set my senses on a trip. Great job. Gretchen

I like a Rubenesque figure. LOL Of course, after delivering five babies, why wouldn't I? Someone said, 'The most beautiful curves on a woman's body is the curve of her smile.' I like that idea too. Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem with us.

Thank you, Barbara. I never heard the smile as a curb, it's a great idea.

Lovely. This format was perfect for the story you told. The presentation is stunning and so fitting. Lots to be said for a Rubenesque figure. I wish more women who have one appreciated themselves.

Thank you very much, Nicki. I agree with you, women are expected to look like models and models are size 0... it's so unrealistic and unhealthy. I appreciate your kind review and positive feedback. May you have a wonderful night.

That's a sweet poem. And I love how you are always able to conjure up sensations such as touch and smell (fragrant jasmine) and hearing the heart.
My one suggestion would be to change to "curves" instead of "curbs."
