I started this one 4 years ago. Got hung up on one word. Found it last night.

I called you
                  witch
                  priestess
                  enchantress
Told you- you were my
                   love
                   darling
                   dream woman
With wonderment I
                    kissed you
                    stroked you
                    entered you
But there is no
                     definition
                     endearment
                     action
That matches what you
                      were
                      to
                      me

Roger,

One word: Were. Everything is in past tense--so the love is over, I'd say. Excellent write with few succinct words--perfectly done!

Glad you found the word--

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. :)

...but you aren't going to tell us which word it is, are you?

I reread you because you deliver so much with brevity... and your written architecture suggests layers. I'm never disappointed. katy xox

When you can't find the word that's true love.
There is no word to define it!;-) Wonderful poem!
