I loved these lines,

Your cheeks burn with another’s touch,
Your lips gleam with her scarlet kiss –
Or do I dread the past so much
That fearful eyes imagine this?

Perfect meter and profound thoght.

This is the mixing of past and present intrigue and analogy in a cleverly paced, rythmic & metrically sustained homologue for what good poetry is supposed to be. Rgds, Ivan

What a very clever poem and yes it resonates. Isn't it strange that we can drive ourselves crazy with these thoughts of who was the one making the shutter click! Wonderful penning dear F. HG: -) xx

Flora what an observaional poem you so cleverly wrought. I give it a well deserved ten. Greetings from Fay in Cornwall.

Thank you, Flora! You are often a wonderful lyrical voice, an announcer of my own feminine and human nature. It is a balm to read own thoughts, which you do not dare to express, but expressed by someone else in a beautiful poetical manner. I am a Floraphile, no doubts!

This is so good, such a great read.
I am glade that I found it.

Ahhh. Flora this is perfect. You have perfected your perfection. So telling in its detail...so chillingly real.

love Donall Donall

Brilliant Flora, this poem reminds me of the song I Know Him So Well, where two women are talking about the same man, but see him in different ways,
*10*
