I have found and lost you
Among the years we once called love
Where memories lay your hand in mine
And mine upon your heart.
My decade gone with you in it
Along we played our parts
That silenced heart and mouth and mind
Which keeps us now apart.
My soul do yearn to seek in you
That once so tender touch
So forward barefoot follow in
Your barren land of love.

Oh wow!!!
…jewel once wrote & sang that innocence is never lost…speaking from experience…neither is love…the seed of a garden rose may whither & fade in the desert but eventually it becomes once again what it originally is, a rose of sharon blooming in wilde places! ^^~~~~ further up & further in (your poem is already taking root!)
Your comment is much appreciated dafreewhitewolfe

Very tender … The final stanza is memorable … Beautiful
Short and sweet I love it
Thank you for visiting and “liking” To Ad or not to Ad”. I liked your poema swell. It reminds me a little of my previous entry, “The Economics of Love”, also about love gone by.
I hope you have a better, longer lasting love in your future.
That’s really nice… Really touching.. 🙂
the last para leaves an impression in the reader’s mind. nice.
words that feel familiar….
I have thought them often…
you have made a sadness beautiful
Thank you
Take Care..

Very lovely poem . I understand that you stopped by. We are really two quite alike persons with much of romantic themes in our poetry. Nice to meet You . love Kerstin
Not only a nice subject, but very professionally written too
Thank you for the compliment
The only sticking point for me was ‘my soul do yearn”. I had to re-read it twice and wondered if the tense was correct. I only pointed it out because I enjoyed it so much! The last stanza especially.
Thanx u
