Delectable dishes, for you to prepare
Beautiful garments for me you'll wear
I allow you music , that you might hear
Yet you turn away, when I hold you near

^^ My favorite stanza:)
Beautiful poem, Deana..although I am not sure whom it is written for:)
You could write about a dishwasher and make it a winner poem, he he!

Hugs to you, my friend

Be safe:)

Deana as with your other poem I feel much more to this piece "between the lines"
I feel sadness and a deep longing.

Sometimes we can have it all diamonds and pearls, fancy cars and a mansion high but all we really want and crave is love .... deep true love.

Touching poem Deana

Deana,

I reread your poem and also Bob's comment and all of a sudden I knew: you are talking about married women! Aww...I didn't realize , but yes..some men treat their women as fancy thing they wear on their arms:(
Now the poem has gotten a really deep meaning for me..
Thanks for the share!

Ouch! cold ending tho so true. often the world's riches are not enough, because the more one has, the more one will always desire. nicely written :)

I am confused by this. The writer seems to be upset because their loved one is not happy with the material things they have provided. A feeble attempt at a show of affection. Yet the reciepent of these things does not say " THIS IS NOT WHAT I WANT OR NEED FROM YOU" I see a lack of communication between all parties here. Sorry if I am analizing the content instead of commenting on the structure, I guess its just the counsellor in me.

You've used a unique setting and voice to let us in on the feelings of the person who thinks they have given someone everything they think they'd uld hope for

The flow was amazing on this poem.
The words you picked were perfect, I can't think of a single thing I could criticize about this poem. It was absolutely perfect the way it is. You have a lot of talent.
