lost love.. at sea…a sailor…and someone whom he held in his heart to his dying breath, searching the horizon for his return. lovely (that’s my interpretation and – as a former sailor – I’m sticking to it)

Brought tears to my eye. Sad and beautiful. Such sweet words my love =).

very moving and beautifully written. i loved reading it.

So sweet and beautiful. I feel like you are waiting with open arms for the return of that wingless dove. I loved it, absolutely beautiful, it speaks to the heart.

Once again a masterpiece. Simply moving, beautiful and timeless.

Hi, Sarah, how are you?
Hope all has been well! This is a really enduring theme and some of the images are breath-takingly crisp. You have a poet’s eye!

Just a couple questions: ’shadow fields’; is that what you are actually calling the eyes? Do you mean to have a compound noun, or are you trying to describe the fields, and maybe mean shadowy? If it’s a compound noun, it might be a good idea to put a dash instead of a space between the words.

The loss of a loved one is a truly hard thing to deal with. I hope all is well.
Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful words, and a beautifully written poem. Reminds me of the Bett Midler song “You Are The Wind Beneath My Wings”. Well done.

Very moving work Sarah, thank you for writing this.

That was pretty.

Lovely, light and magical*

Blessings.

Sincerely,
