It is funny how a place can linger in our minds long after the love has faded the memory of that place or sometimes an object can reawaken the memories of that love.A really romantic write Robert that I'm sure a lot of us can relate to,

This one brought my tears, touched my soul deeply Jude. Some we share our souls with are so full of life, beauty and color, even in the midst of sorrow and death they become unforgettable.
You have captured something so beautiful,here, Jude. It is true, it seems to me, that some people can have that effect on anything with which they come into contact: that the world that they enter just "lives and breathes" because of their very presence, because of their charismatic qualities and irrespective of their mood. Some have the gift and are embued with the ability to sow "life and colour" in the world and into the outer and inner landscapes of others. This reminds me of the fairytales of Cinderella and Snow White - THOSE kind of personal qualities. Once you have met such a person, you can never be the same again: their "life" and effects stay with you for ever. This poem lives and breathes with a light and tensile emotion, spoken from the heart: a beautiful mirror reflecting straight back that of which you speak. The rhythm and flow are like a River of Life running through it and the images delightful. TY for this creation - a perennial!! Kate xx

This write touched my heart and soul, Robert. Some memories are so precious that they retain their vivid beauty and replay the moments we spent, throughout our lifetime. They seem so long ago and yet, they seem like only yesterday.
Take care,
Sherry

I like this and it reminds me of some people that I know that also planted a garden of memories in me.
The last stanza says so much about you. Well, all of it does. And in these genius poems you write about the way you see things, I wonder how you became so prolific, so interested and observant. A blessing and a gift from someone long ago and far away. This is beautiful and it makes me cry.

Would blossom like a flower
So vivid and colorful
The entire garden
Would blush with envy "

I started looking at this, wishing for spring, to get back on my hands and knees, playing in mother earth. Then I was changed (or transformed?) into blossoming from the love and nuture of another. Great poem. I now have a new "feeling" about my little garden...
This book represents a thirty-day period of my poetry journal. Each poem addresses
the dominant thoughts occupying my mind during the early morning hours of a given
day.
