I am quite content
I want for nothing at all
When I am with you
I hear ya Regis..indeed my own views on love are the same..however I am told that I live in fantasyland LOL...but, nothing can diminish the yearning for such love..NOTHING!
Thank you for yet another gem..
Fortunately, I know what this poem is all about. There is someone in my life for whom I feel the same.
"The world vanishes when we hold one another...and heaven appears."
Regis, "once upon a day, you appeared on my doorstep, and my life was changed" captured my fancy. All of your works wear your unique style and move the imagination. I bid you love and peace my dear friend. Jon Michael
The wording in the stanzas is great and people might connect to what you are saying, however, there is an issue with the poem as a whole. As a whole there doesn't seem to be a (smooth, natural) flow from one stanza to the next and because of that the stanzas do not connect to make one complete poem. Each stanza in this poem is like a little poem that can be expended further into a bigger piece -- that is 12 little poems that can be made into 12 bigger ones. I have read this poem over a number of times and each time I get the same feeling/reaction. I hope you understand what I am trying to say. The content isn't bad. It is each stanza connecting and flowing together as a whole that is the issue for me.
INDEED, THESE ARE 'SENRYUS', WHICH ARE SO WELL DONE. VERY MUCH ENJOYED. THANK YOU REGIS FOR...JUST DOING WHAT YOU DO. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
"I am quite content I want for nothing at all When I am with you" ... this is a complete love and my favorite of all your Senryu, Regis ... beautiful. ~Love and hugs, Elizabeth
The beauty of unfolding love is captured perfectly in your verses, Regis...if only that newness and wonder could last forever...sigh.
Take care,

Nobleman's son, Todd Ramble, returns home after years abroad and finds himself falling in love with his step-sister, who was now a grown woman. Unfortunately their love is brutally challenged by his tyrannical father.
Love ya!

"When you are away
My home is merely a house
Until your return"
These verses speak to me in so many ways.
