Your place is empty
but your scent still lingers
on the book you left behind
still laying on the chair you set.
Come back to me my love,
my heart cannot bear
the hours without you.
These are beautiful words Bernadette. I like the poetic use of scent and that it lingers but more than that it is what the scent lingers on that makes this poem so relevant to those who write. And the last three lines are just so touching and heartfelt. Great poem.
Hi Bernie, I was truly missing your reflections.
You have a sense of curiosity, and a unique way of seeing and feeling,
making you a great reviewer. But most importantly, you could say only a couple of words, but one would know that you just love doing this.
Thank you!

Thank you Bernadette. I really do appreciate you my friend. In all honesty if only you commented on my writing that would be reward enough for me.
'One more Angel in Heaven. One more Star in the Sky.' Lovely Verse of True Love.
And… lovely words, Jacques.
All the best, B
