Your poem is beautiful. It has everything a perfect poem should have; personification, alliteration, colourful images, smooth lilting lines and great rhyming. It is so lovely. The art work is perfect for what you have written. Susan

Such soulful words of longing by a faithful lover for her partner's return from business travels (or even military deployment) both tug at the heart and raise internal temperature. If people in relationships could keep communicating that way to each other as the years go by, families would be a lot stronger, for the benefit of all involved, including the children. Yet, the reality is that many -- possibly most -- of us experience such a time at some point in our lives. If we know it is temporary, it is more bearable, but never easy; and, for those who can see no hope of an end to it anytime soon, it can be devastating. You capture it all here, both with words well written and with words unsaid but implied. Superb, and beautifully illustrated in perfect representation of the theme.

    You are most welcome, Susan. You always go straight to the core of the matter in your poems, expressing the key elements in heartfelt manner with beautifully chosen and well combined words. That is why you get so many Sixes from me, and this one merited another. Hugs back....

Love the rhythm of this piece, which is so much in tune with the content. I was also delighted to see Buckminster Fuller's proposed alternative word for sunset in your poem. Sunclipse is so much more descriptive of the event! The repetition of the first two lines in the last verse gives a nice sense of closure as well as intensifying the feeling of regret. A powerful and beautifully expressed poem.

This is beautifully written. The loneliness and the longing exude from your poem.

I love your enriched word choice, personification, imagery and metaphors, especially in the second stanza.

Great job! Have a wonderful week. :)

An absolutely wonderful love poem of missing the one true love. The piece is excellent and flows very well. Again the double internal rhyme is very well done
