Sometimes you get a gift
Unexpectedly
Like the dreamy afternoon
When I heard you sing
When I saw you smile
When we shared a meal
When we walked a while
When we shared some thoughts
Your eyes sparkled
Your face glowed
I know it was not a dream
I can still feel your arms around me
And when time took a moment
To let me love you in person
And lose myself
In the loveliness of you
I realized once more
How much I really do
Sometimes you get a gift
Unexpectedly
Unexpected gifts are the best for me ... i believe God sends them from above, I've had many and look forward to many more.
This write is so sentimentally correct.
Yes Reg sometimes we do get gifts unexpectedly. Like loving and caring friends, even from afar that give advice and wish us well. But when we can get a love from afar, and meet that person face to face, and let the love grow, then we know that God was watching us both at the same time. This is a wonderfully happy poem about love, and the many splendored things it brings. Thank you for sharing.
May the Lord Bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and walk by your side. With love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister Barbie
What a WONDERFUL "GIFT" that had to be, to write about it!
Sooo Eloquently too!
Such blessings are felt HERE!
GREAT Write Reg!YOUR words bring a gentleman to mind!
YES! That's YOU!
I think this poem needs to be broken up into stanzas. I'd probably have a line break after the line 'your face glowed'. This would create a 2 stanza poem.
The poem flows well and it is filled with sweetness. Even though I don't see a lot of imagery in this poem I can still picture what you write about in the poem.
I really liked this poem and I think that people will be able to connect with it and it will make them smile.
I think unrhymed poetry is your best style. You excel at it better than when your poetry rhymes. That is not to say your rhymed poems are bad; they are not. But your unrhymed poetry is better.

Moments like these are to be cherished...good write
How romantic and utterly charming this is, Regis! I enjoyed every single line, and it was particularly familiar to me as this is exactly how I feel about meeting my hubby!
Love is the gift you can unwrapped and find
A gift within a gift
Filled with many unexpected moments
Of handful of gifts of love!
A brilliant verse to be treasure for a lifetime!
Love the gift that keeps on giving!

Heres Gift,i.e. Tell Your Self Whence You Go To Sleep Night That You Will Only have Beautiful Psychic Dreams...Theres 2/3 Minute Lull Before After You Go to Sleep--Its How You Talk To Your Sub Conscious Mind...
Guarantee You Will **See Meet Girl Of In Your (Not Of This Evil World) Dreams!
** Be Careful Desire Is Imagination In Lieu Of Can Be Good And/Or Bad!
You have captured the essence of Romance here!
If your Lover is real and truly reciprocates, it is like a bit of Heaven.
If she is imaginary, or a dream, then Sometime soon, send her 'Sometimes' -
It may cause her to become real ...
Regis, from the heart of a man with humility and a genuine appreciation and acceptance for the gift we receive, "Sometimes" -- you have said this thing with great style and class my friend -- my peace and love be always with you -- Jon Michael
The "sometimes" gift, unexpected and unsought, that lasts forever and whose power, surprise and delight never diminishes. I love the "simple" declaration of this poem, Regis, that speaks volumes in terms of its wholeheartedness, and of the deep place of humility and thankfulness from which it speaks. Pure and unfettered, like how genuine experiences of love should be. Bless you, Kate xx
Absolutely beautiful Regis and very touching!
I appreciate "Sometimes" Thank you for sharing
and for caring! May the Lord continue to bless
and strengthen you Regis!
It is too bad life does not allow us more of these moments, so one should cherish them while they can. Pleasant read, Regis. Hope you have many more such "good curves",
Jim
This is the gift of the Universe telling you that you are loved and cared for...This is such a beautiful poem, Reg.
I wish you peace, love and light,

Unexpected gifts that come in the form of a special moment are truly the best of all. A beautiful poem that made me reflect and remember some of my unexpected gifts! Dave.
As soon as I decide that dating and relationships are not what I want anymore or just not my forte, along comes a man, never the one I thought I would want, and I fall head over heels in love. It is the unexpected things that always end up being the best things. Beautiful poem, Reg.
Take care,
Sherry
Regis,
An abrupt turnaround in mood from your most recent posts. I like the feeling in this poem. Makes me think of how we're able to think through happy memories, and they almost seem so real. I like the flow, too. It adds to the upbeat mood. Love and Hugs,
