This is so beautiful... just beautiful! I adored this entry,
lovely piece GB

This is so beautiful Samia..it tells me how much your husband means to you but it also tells me how much you have grown as a poet even in your absence from this site...so many lines I adore in this verse so I will not separate them..simply breath taking!!!

Hello GB,

I am so glad that I have read this. It is both beautiful and full of deep meaning below it's surface. I like the fact that it is dedicated to your husband and this helps me see the images of him, his actions more clearly. 'singing summer ballads in the face of woes' Optimism is a gift that can engender hope, even happiness in others. Such a person is rightfully given praise and lifted to 'superstar' status. After all, if we are lucky enough to have such a person in our lives. A person who is reliable, dependable and open to love and be loved. Such a person, your husband deserves such praise.

I really enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing.

Michael
