Emotional Romantic:

[Poetry Garden]

If I could feel your breath on my face

and your hands in my hair

in the hours of the evening


The vastness of the days

would be effortless

and I could go on living

I'm focusing on the word effortless. Any thought easily expressed, bright or melancholy, is well suited for tercets, which is why I enjoy them. Many would describe this as simple in execution if not for how, immediately after that single word in the 2nd line of the closing tercet, a shadow falls to give the poem its final wash of color, a darkening effect that belies the hopefulness of the preceding lines.

Ahh how empty we feel without our soulmates. Beautiful capturing of that yearning... and the loneliness of it. Beautiful write dp ... love this.

This does seem really effortless and flows so so smoothly and like a fluid, yearning thought flowing through from one person to another...very nice!
