WONDERING...COULD IT BE YOU'RE 'BOTH'...WONDERING? WHAT A WONDER YOU'RE WONDERING, BUT...WHY WONDER? IS THERE A PHONE IN THE HOUSE? I MEAN, 'HELLO' NEVER HURT. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH...HIS INSPIRATIONS

I believe she misses you Regis and her heart will go on and on as she must have been so in love with you too. May your heart go on too by cherishing the good times you had together. Above all may you never lack love in your life for there is no happiness where love is lacking.

Regis, what a compelling tribute to a memory of one so special. I have wondered also, about someone, and you took me back to that within a very few lines. This was well written and lovely. I am sorry I have been away so long, again. I am really looking forward to catching up with your work and that of many others on here!

We who are left-behind
When someone has passed on
We have lots to wonder about
even if there are no answer.
Thanks for sharing, Regis.

Beautiful writing.

Excellent piece true feeling searching a heart
Enjoyed much..... Peace be with you

Nostalgia and yearning. Wonderful write!

Yes, love needs a "wide screen"! Keep wondering, Regis, and keep writing and don't give up!

The heart is always waiting for that love to return. Beautifully said Regis

...true poetry Regis...a fine expression of
an emphatic need to wonder...speculate curiously...
to doubt...agonize puzzled...It is said that absence
makes a heart grow fonder...closer...and as George
Eliot (her pen name) put it:

"What greater thing is there for two human souls that
to feel that they are joined...to strengthen each other
...to be at one with each other in silent unspeakable
memories..."

Thank you for sharing your poetic words of painful longing.

A romantic write from a truly romantic soul. This is at the essence of poetry.

REG... Very nicely put...

Sherrie' summary says it all. My "Wonder Woman" was my very first true love.
I did something stupid at age 20. Joined the Army Reserves to avoid the Draft.
Got "Dear John" letter while in Basic Training . Ft. Knox. Often wondered & thought about her for many years. Located her about 50 years later. Talked by phone for about 1/2 hour. Married happily still. 2 adult sons. Once in a Blue Moon I actually drive by her home out of adolescent curiosity... but no nerve to knock on door.
Athough I am "free" she isn't... afraid to "rock the boat." But the fond memories of that 1st Love will follow me to the grave! WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN ! P.S. altho was married & with one woman for 34+ years, my 'torch' is for SUE... not my EX !
PEACE...

Tearing urself up inside over ONE lady...when there are millions out there pining for just someone such as you...-e-

Beautiful...very moving poetry.

You have put this together beautifully. Yes, I believe we all have that one person we "wonder" about in the fashion you have written.

Love ya!

Jane

Nice poem Regis. Luv will find it way to you.

Life at times is just a wonder "Sleeping to waking, waking to sleeping", yet it's still a wonder, Regis, well done!

I once pined just like that for a Scottish lass from Saskatoon. Homesick, she left our relationship by the San Francisco Bay and headed out around the world, never to return.

Like all things, I got over it… But once in a while, I think like you have in this poem.

Ron

I have basked in memories
and love to invoke them, But I have never wondered about the things
you describe. Perhaps I am not a true lover.
If I did I might wonder who's kissing her now. Not a good thought.
I don't wonder about your honesty or your writing skills.

Special people deserve "wonder" . I wish you get your love back soon..
As....it..goes...where there's love there's hope :
Have a good day Regis

Times You (We) Do Not How Lucky You Really Are!

You Don't Let Go Something- Someone Will Let Go
For You!

Now Turn Around Walk Away Do Not Look Back-

Or You Will Be Wanderer!!

TRASK...

The problem with pining for someone who has left us is that even if they return, they will leave us again. There is a reason why it did not feel to them as it did to us and we must send them off on their journey and hope that they find what they are looking for. It is not until we let go of our past loves that we can open our hearts to the future and find someone who will love us as we love them. Love must be equal from both parties or it can never be. Sometimes the absolute essence of loving is letting go.

Very sweet poem, Regis. Just as so many of your poems are. However, maybe you wonder too much. Easy to reach a point of diminishing returns with that exercise. Have you let the woman know your feelings?
All the best!

I have determined that we can lament and cry over being unloved for so long and eventually it is time to move on.

Regis~
Verses to uphold your heart for she is ever
surrounding you with hope. Beautiful~

What woman would not be touched -and moved - by the profound beauty and romance of your heart, Regis!

Undoubtedly... she IS thinking of you, too!
Fare thee well, my Friend..
Love and hugs, Rhonda
