Swept away by this. A poet of varied talent. I was relishing in the beat of the stanzas. Ta-da-da-dum, da-da-da-dum... Truly enjoyable. This shall be returned to. Perhaps an autumn tradition to boot. Thanks for sharing.

Your gracious, understanding sentiments let me know we've connected poetically in a meaningful manner of encouragement.
Yes, a smooth syntactic flow always makes for a more exceptional reading experience.
So glad you enjoyed this piece … thank you so very much! ⁓ Richard🖌
A bitter-sweet and wistful poem, mourning a lost love, yet rejoicing in the fact that the memories of a blissful time will live on. I'm sure many readers will be able to identify with this.

Thank you for relating your discernments of this rather poignantly touching tale.
This is a gorgeous piece full of stunning and haunting imagery. The title itself is wonderful, and suits the poem quite nicely. The rhyme scheme is subtle yet effective, as well. I interpret this as experiencing the balance between pain and comfort in being alone. Great work.

The inferences in your commentary are not only beauteously gratifying to behold, your interpretation is uncannily harmonious with the essence of my deepest emotive feelings when this was written … the sensation of connecting is so amazingly pleasurable to the senses.
Thank you ever-so warmly for your encouraging accolades, Alira … hugs! ⁓ Richard 🍃

Then,
Your warming smile was worth my earnest effort. 😏
Each gifted kiss, in wondrous bliss,
was Paradise in harmony …
Well so I am assuming by "By each gifted kiss" you mean kiss by kiss is a natural gift? **
Love that line, This is wonderful, I look for little words that I can grab a hint on...
Lovely read.

Your interpretation of these two lines hit their essence perfectly … a rare instance when a reader does, and I am amply pleased with the gift of your love for them; as I surely am by virtue of your gracious praise … thank you ever-so gratefully, WG.
Seems you found those "little words to grab a hint on" 🌸
Lovely review … hugs! ⁓ Richard🖌
Good morning Richard,
Your poem stirred up so many feeling..and made me cry. Words like yearning, quell, naked branch.. really hit home for me.
Oh yes, and the part... "head lowered" and "with every stone.."
I could go on and on..

What a beautifully felt and rendered review … rarely, one is so openly candid with their emotions. But, such is the wonderment of human nature that it's possible to relate with truly tender, passionate expression.
If there were but one reader who appreciated my writing, I'd be most happy if it were You!
With my warmest hug of thanks! ⁓ Richard 🍃
