It really does touch you so much.
Its so subtle and calm, it moves you with every word. You're word choice is really nice, and the structure is really good too.
But if i have to be nit-picky; i'd say having so many commas ruins the flow. Like you have this beautiful rhyme going on in the last two lines of the stanza and having a comma in there, personally, ruins it. This is just my opinion, but consider it. It isn't the point where you want your reader to pause
But that doesn't stop this from being a great read : )

Ahhh beautiful ... just one suggestion for the following paragraph :
..
The chilled air reddens my fleshy cheeks
the slight breeze blowing dishevels stands of hair
And I ponder do you really still care
..
do not use the word fleshy , it sounds too base here , I would prefer :
The chilled air reddens my bare cheeks
the slight breeze blowing dishevels strands of hair
And I ponder do you really still care
A beautiful description of fall day. The cold air bringing the winter into another season of our life. I like the way you described the poem. A very good ending to a outstanding poem. Thank you.

Nice. You've clearly immortalized a memory here, and so do you carry us along on a lover's whim, through the breeze of a November night that is since past.
I'm impressed.^
Great writing. I can see the image of one lost in thought with those around her wandering what she's thinking of. Your words fill us in on the secret. 100 from me.
First off I'm on here to post my writing to have an outlet for my emotions. You will find a variety of poems. If you like take a moment and stroll through this poets mind.
Secondly be kind to each .. more..
