Seems like more and more I find myself reading the dawn poems at dusk and reading the dusk poems at dawn. Go figure. Perhaps just another way of telling me my life has turned upside down. Anyway I enjoyed this. :-)

I liked this poem. It was uniquely different and refreshing. 'A solo sunrise, coffee for one' 'solo performance to an unforgettable love song,' those two were my favorite lines. Great job with this!

Oh, this carried a certain wistfulness to it, although it certainly ended on a positive note. I thought the title was really good and several verses memorable unto themselves. I think I might change out "dreamland" for "dreamers" perhaps. "dreamland" seemed a bit too corny for the weight of this piece. excellent

Jewell, I had to read this through three times to fully grasp what I feel is the intent of your heart. It is a clever piece with deep feelings that must be felt, not read.

You've captured lonliness in such a beautiful and creative way here. Very expressive with beautiful images and I love the last stanza! Well written :)

I'm glad you can still dance after what seems like lost love. I loved your poem because it was so...I don't know the word. However I do know I liked it

Hi Jj,

This is a great free verse poem which you wrote expertly. It read like the loss of a mate that sears your soul. You expressive words are lovely and give a sensual feel to the lines. Well done....blessing, chey

Love this lyrical write.

Wish eddy would let me light it up with the six that it deserves.

Love your final stanza:Today I'll dance
across the stage of life
in a solo performance
to an unforgettable love song

I do agree. Hugs,d
