This is one of those poems that does nothing but leave the reader speechless. The last stanza repeated deep down breaks my heart. I admire you for writing poems like these, they are very nice dedications.. it takes a lot of heart to write about someone so close to your heart although they are gone. *hugs*

Wow this is a very sentimental poem. it really expresses how your feel :)

Love and all its excitement jumped at me a birthday gift? and a birthday smile funny who was the more excited? you or her you held me and I enjoyed Rays Excellent as I have come to expect of your diverse, flowery and refreshing poetry.5/5

I loved the last stanza. This poem has a lot of emotion in it; I almost cried reading it. My favorite line was definitely the last one:

"You're still the one I love"

Overall, it was beautifully written. =)

Im curious to why you use the perenthesis....but this one is good....the flow is great....characteristic of you poems....keep it up.

This poem is beautiful, Joe.
Liz would be smiling while she read this.
i miss her like crazy, too. its hard signing on messenger and seeing she's not on, its like sometimes i wish she would just sign on and be her old bubbly self again, making every one laugh.
she was beautiful and always will be.

take care, Joe.
