Sometimes life throws good "curves"...


Poem Artwork

Sometimes
 
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

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

Our whole lives are gifts; a smile is a gift from a friend to another.

Now, I won't go all Hallmarkian on you;
just let you know, Regis, there are others like you
who appreciate Life's little gifts.

Sometimes we do get a gift when we least expect one. Those are the gifts we never forget. Lovely poem! :)

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.

REG - SUPERBLY DONE!

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 ...

Peace - Tom.

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
