My Ecstasy

through this write you have brought into sharp focus the very phenomenon of true love,its immeasurable depths and dimensions which can only be perceived and not seen... like a cat i always find your writes adorable... warmly...raj (sublime_ocean)

This is so very beautiful, a testament to love that weathers time and human emotion. I hope he bask(s)ed in the splendor of your poem! Happy belated anniversary.

are my favorite, you know. But the whole thing is just superb. Your hubby is lucky! :) Something about "state of hopelessness" sounds a little "off", though. I think "shrivel [in] hopelessness" or "shrivel [to] hopelessness" or "shrivel up, hopeless" or something like that would work a bit better. Happy belated anniversary!

Very well written with clever expressions of loss. Xena Quote: Science is what you know; philosophy is what you don't know. - Bertrand Russell

Hi Cat, Positively a beautiful poem of love. To still feel this way after 28 years , you are truly blessed. Congratulations to you both. Thanks for sharing this with us. Sue Congrats on the election as well!!!!

i was stunned by the beauty of the poem i read twice not to understand but to reenjoy. shan

As a victim of 35 years of love. *G* I relate to this a lot. Beautifully written. Phenomenal sentiment. Absolutely wonderful. I can't find a single thing I would change on this. Stunning. Respectfully, Rett: “Anyone who sacrifices liberty for security deserves neither.” Benjamin Franklin

Cat, another stunning piece from you. It had an edge of Eddy in there, but since it was for Steven, it had to be by Cat. The whole piece cascaded deep into my soul. Loved the opener: open a vein, I shall shower in your blood. A dark but purely poetic poem for the one you love - it doesn't get any better than that. regards, HS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "With all that I am and all that I could be, I walk this earth and yet nobody sees me".

he's had 28 years as a lucky guy. lovely poem well written. Regards Roscoe..

Wow my friend I am going to give you my highest complament. I really wish I would have written this *You can never pick anyone up if you are busy putting them down*

That is what you have shown. I am almost speechless! [Almost!] This struck a chord with both Sir Gee, and Killer! Their temperments being somewhat at odds sometimes, makes it really great! At last, something they can share! Your husband is a lucky man. ~ Gee

Your words are magical :)

congratulations from me. Sorry I hadn't looked here before now. Something I note on a more intuitive plane: It seems what makes this especially rich is what's available to be read between the lines. Powerful. I do have a sort of caveat, though, as to Turn your back, and I shall shrivel up in hopelessness for I am lost in limbo without you, which speculates, I think unnecessarily. I would suggest that the relationship---its length, its completeness---perhaps has somehow strengthened you in ways that'd make you strong even if he were no longer. I would wish such. Hope I'm making sense here. Yours, Chuck
