A very nice and sad poem. It always hurts when we lose someone that we love. But to know that he is now safe with the Almighty God, is a comfort. I liked your poem, and understand your grief.

A very well-written heartfelt poem about your son's death when the last kiss and a part of your heart went with him to eternity. It is very sad, and life is too short. Before we know its over.

Your poem has a sad and melancholy tone. I believe that you are describing the loss of someone dear and yet the eternal beauty of the living spirit. I did not quite understand the use of the quotation marks?

This is a wonderful tribute to the loss of a loved one. This can only have been written by someone who has truly felt that loss. Thank you for sharing such a painful time in your heart. I think there are many people that would not only relate to this sorrow but also find this poem something they could hold onto to be able to put what they were feeling into words.

I particularly like how you have structured this; each line is a clause in itself. That is a very effective technique, evocative of a rush of unconnected thoughts. Your repetition of eternal and kiss is , again, effective; a theme running through the framework - good! And, your last line encapsulates all those apparently disconnected sentiments and brings them together as one - I like how you have crafted that.

An uplifting poem that is excellent. Well done.

Ricky, another reflective read. I was pulled more so much more into this poem. It is more emotional. Saying good bye to someone you have lost to heaven is never easy. You have done a fine job with this poem. Thank you for sharing it. ~DD

The thoughts are consistenet, the layout is unusual. I haven't seen it on here before so it was a surprise. A few thoughts scattered here and there for effect.
Nice.

Great sad poem about lose. It's terrible to loose someone especially someone young, as your poem suggested this person might be.
