| I can see Lancaster and Hepburn through the feel of your poem. I like your lines for this such as "touching her without ever raising his hand." I also really like your simile of likening the sky to a freshly laundered sheet. Good play of one art form, a movie, touching another art form, poetry.........Jerry |

| Just wonderful, Dawn ~ I love every line. Each word is essential and the perfect choice. Your overall composition casts the most romantic spell in exactly the way - the elegant way - the old movies do. I, too, am a fan of Katherine. It's funny how even with one's eyes closed, you can tell an old movie from modern simply by the voices and manner of speaking. |

This is so romantic from head to toe Dawn. I can feel my toes curl with delight reading these gorgeous and beautiful lines.
Loved this line * sky stretching above like a newly
laundered sheet.*

Dawn - Loved that movie , too. That first stanza really captures that release of potential when fear and uncertainty are swept aside:
and the thought of him causes her face to
light up with “un”laughed laughter.
Also liked those last lines that encompass both the human potential and limitations simultaneously:
Strange, how life can seem enchanted
at times…and the word “complete”
almost feels like a definite possibility!

Loved Katharine, love how you captured her in these few lines:
She basks in a pool of sunlight -
a now snug and familiar place, the
sky stretching above like a newly
laundered sheet.
I liketo think that whatever you desire is a definite possibility.

"un" laughed laughter."
I do like that phrase.
And I like the blend of romance
and philosophy and melancholy that
thread this piece together so deftly.
