Gold-Plated

by N J Thornton   Sep 18, 2007


Wait one moment dear,
where did I put them?

Oh I remember...
By the grey inglenook;
next to your gold-plated
china vase.

I left my thoughts
next to you
in hope I may join you,
and in faith that loneliness
cannot penetrate a bond
like ours.

So, we can look upon
our home together,
upon our children
and whisper guidance
Within the years of my
forgotten memories.

    Although this is a sad poem, It is beautiful and heart warming. Deep Love even in Death,
    cannot be denied.

    and in Faith that loneliness
    cannot penetrate a bond
    like ours.

    Excellent I thought. Peace and Blessings

    I liked the flow and story behind this poem, however; I felt you could elaborate on the poem more by making it longer. I was just getting into the meaning and story of this as it came to a sudden halt. Overall great write, you have talent, keep it up.

    Peace, Joe
