Wow, three lines. Only three lines and you manage to knock the breath out of us all ~ such a powerful poem on to which I return. What have I been missing… This is the feeling of love, it is the feeling that lucky people have for each other. Really a wonderful poem, I see no sadness…just that pure devotion that is rare 🙂
*blushing* Thank you. Dalo, where have you been? !!!! I was afraid that great mysterious wall had eaten you. *hugs you so close…not letting you go* I’ve missed you, too. *sigh* Are you a lucky person? This poem is all about devotion, indeed. I’m so glad you lost your breath. I like you that way. 😉 Welcome back, Handsome ♡ I was thrilled to read your words the other night. You have no idea how much I needed them. You, Sir, take my breath away. I need transported and you’re just the Cowboy to do it. I’m slightly giddy about reading all those comments from you. You spoil me, Randall. Talk about devotion. You show it so well. You must have been here for hours reading. I’m overwhelmed by your attention to my poetry. I don’t deserve it, but I love it. Thank you… ♡♡
Off in China ~ not too much traveling while there so that was nice, but it is a good feeling to be in HK again. Yes, there are a few comments for your to read…it was nice to sit down and review all that I’ve missed 🙂
Enjoy your weekend ~
As much as China offers you places to become lost inside, I too find you being back in HK a relief. I like knowing you’re okay. You know how much I love having you here reading. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.. ♡
The poem may fall under some sort of haiku, and if it is, it’s lost on me, Charly. I just had these lines come to me the other night and felt led to share them. This is downtown Houston, TX. Well, one end of downtown’s skyline, that is. I’m glad you like the photo. Thanks. xx
Just figured it might be a Haiku since it had 3 lines, that´s as much as I know about Haiku, well I do know the 5-7-5 syllable thing but I don´t see anybody using it.
So downtown Houston, looks beautiful. Never been there in all the years I spent in the U.S, but interesting enough you´re the 3 ( I think) person from the blogging world I know it´s from there.
I try to use the 5-7-5 rule when I write a haiku. I’ve done a few.
Downtown Houston is quite lovely. Truly. It has a very romantic feel, swave with a little terror, which I adore. You should consider visiting if you ever come back this way. Texas is nice. 3 Houstonian bloggers? Really? I haven’t any on my blog log. How do you find us? Must be fate.
Beautiful skyline belies the somber read of this one, Audrey. Don’t beat yourself up, my dear. Failing every so often doesn’t mean we’re “failures.” And I for sure don’t see you as one!
It was a gorgeous evening on the top of NRG Stadium, Debbie. What a view! Thanks for for the boost. I’m gonna be fine. No worries. I love with all I have. I know of nothing else. ♡
Sometimes, jf, it is extremely important for me to write exactly how I feel. Yes, it was brutally honest and I am guilty of allowing myself to take on more than I should, but I am the oldest daughter and the redheaded sister. I was born to take care of everyone. I know nothing else. Never a burden, just at times I forget that I fail at convincing those most important to me. Not something I’m proud of..
Much love, jf. Always. xx
Thank you, friend. I haven’t had a ton of time to read lately, but I always make time when someone stops here. I’ll be over for a visit. It is always nice to see a friendly face.
I figure I should, you know. Easing any doubt should come straight from the hip. I felt the gut punch, but if it wasn’t meant for me I’d gladly send it on. 🙂

Very few people use the 5-7-5 rule as far as I read other writers, so I´m not quite sure if it´s THE requirement.
Yeah, 3 from Houston at least, that I have more contact than others. And their all female ! 😉
LikeLike
It is one of THE requirements, but haikus have several syllable options. Not just 575. Go ahead make one up…I’ll create for you. 🙂
All female. Damn. Competition. 😉 Enjoy.
