Wooooooot I get to be the first to comment this amazing piece!

Jeannie between your poem and Cindy's tonight I seem to need a lot of tissue.

Inside the mind that quivers is a need to finally see
Tenderness upon the soul to mend and to set free
^^^
I love these 2 lines. I love the entire piece(though it set my emotions on fire) it was an amazing read!
Though all your poetry sparks emotion ... this one just ... I can't even begin to express the feeling it gave me.

Excellent read as always Auntie!

What a fantastic piece. The emotions really hit you right in the heart.

Wishful of a happiness that grows so strong inside
Invading all the memories that I want to hide.
Lingering reflections of the choices that I made
Long lost among the pain coursing through my yesterdays

These lines were amazing. I am always looking for my yeterdays. Like Luanne I needed the tissues also.
~BRAVO~
Love Cindy

Jeannie,
Where did you hide the Kleenex? Geesh, that was so intense. These lines are so amazing and speak volumes that death can seperate even the most perfect of marriages.
At least this was my perception of these two lines.

^^Of all the pain that we survived where is the hope we shared
Wasteful wreckage of the heart remain in disrepair.

As always Jeannie, you are one of my favorites and this is why. ...The ability to make me feel every ounce of emotion that you spill into your poems. Thank you, and wonderful job,
Take Care,
Kay

Oh the truth and wisdom, the honest insight you've captured here! Stunning. I can so relate to the emotions and meanings of this piece. A fantastic poem, an incredible acrostic. This poem has settled deep inside me.

Peace, Poetry & Power,
