Afterglow

[imrogue]

Beautiful smiles... pearly whites show
bedimpled cheeks... and your afterglow!
Warm hugs and sweet kisses
desserts after delicious dishes.
Lullaby hums and stroking fingers
through my hair... I still remember!
Motion after motion
No preconceived notion...
This is love...
coming from above!
Your personae,
Like the City of Mycenae
Tender lovings, ever so mild...
You gave so much to this orphan child!



Note: City of Mycenae (rich in gold, known to be a well-founded citadel) as accounted by Homer from Iliad

Such beautiful language - describing a good place to be. It speaks of contentment to me. Nice write imrogue!

Thank you for reading RLW. This is a tribute to my beloved aunt who took care of me as a child. She also the same person I am referring to in my poem the 'Last Goodbye' I miss her so much 😔

I just went and found that one - I think it may have been before I singed up here. Beautiful tribute. Your words certainly honor her and speak of a wonderful relationship; no wonder you are grieving loss of her presence. May you find comfort in continuing to share in your verse the ways she blessed your life.
