A very well-written heartfelt free verse tribute to the live of your life that awaits you in heaven and you will do anything possible to let her know you love her and will do anything to join her in heaven one day.

Accepting changes is the hardest thing to do in life and as you say we cannot hold on to those we love as either one of us departs this earth eventually. Your words are whimsical and fanciful and filled with loving words that are very touching, a fine free-verse with some internal rhyming, much enjoyed Bill, love Dolly x

Your poem is AWESOME, Commando. The beautiful FanArt sets the tone for what is to follow. Readers are treated to a free verse with many techniques of its writing evident with in the beautiful love poem you have written. The internal rhyming is super. It adds to the enjoyment of your poem along with great use of alliteration. The fine examples of what you wish to do for your Angel~your wife~are vividly expressed with great imagery. I love astronomy; so, I was immediately drawn into your well-chosen words with the line "if I could, I would catch shooting stars from the heavens in jars . . . . " That is a beautiful message. But, stopping the world from spinning to enjoy one more moment of a beautiful sunset is another fantastic image. Your author notes read like a poem, too. Thank you for sharing this awesome, personal reflection for your Angel. I enjoyed reading your heart-felt words. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Respectfully with Love and Admiration, Laura Jan.

Sweet Valentine to a loving wife. More husbands should be this good. I liked the rhyme and rhythm. I usually don't read much love poetry but this is a standout. Good imagination too. You don't see many poems with references to cartographers...loved it!

Hello,
What a wonderful tribute. I especially like the line: For a day I'd make the world stop spinning--as in the beginning, so you could watch
the beautiful sunset for one moment longer ... - a gift beyond compare. Great job. - Lobber

Love is a holding on and a letting go. The first feeds the ego, the latter feeds our connection to this amazing universe we are privileged to be a part of. Your poem is a beautiful tribute to love and the many lessons it teaches us about beauty and the human condition.
