Dearest, you bring smiles on my lips, I remember chestnuts instead of leaves...
Beautiful

I read this and was like "Aww"
This was one of those poems that leaves you feeling all warm inside, it was incredibly sweet but I also know that is 100% real.

The love you and James have is precious and I love it when you write about that love.

Beautiful, sweet and totally brilliant xx

This one really blew me away. The imagery alone stands out to me.

To start out a poem you must capture ones attention and surely you have done this. Your thoughts get going right away as you can picture the scene. Of course it's at night but there was a breeze. The key word here is euphoria I believe. That tells me you were in your own world or you could even say you were meditating :).

The second stanza tells me that even now you are still searching for lost feelings deep within your soul and you are using nature to do that. But the emotion you show here is wonderful. The biting of the lip means you are apprensive about something and the giggles were your heart was feeling overjoyed. I loved the contrast there as it shows the reader how you truly felt. I really like how you set up the second and lead into the third stanza. The second stanza was your emotions but the third you explained why. Your heart has known nothing but hurt but after this person left this world you had no where to turn so you turned to nature and though it took time it healed you.

The last few parts are really imagery filled as well. The bare toes line was great and so was filling the pockets. You seemed to use nature to feel close to a person and you never wanted to lose their memory. But I could be wrong. Anyways. What a heartfelt and beautiful poem here Andrea. Very impressed.
