When we first met
We both had nothing
Worlds apart
I, a Minnesota farm boy fresh out of Vietnam
You, a farm girl from Nakhon Sawan
You were fire
I was ice
Then our hearts met
And we were one
Then, Now, and Forever
A lovely narrative poem, well articulated and nicely penned to capture the essence of the piece. A treasure found on Val's day. A blissful blend of hot and cold. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
My wife and I have returned to Thailand to celebrate our 41st wedding anniversary. We will spend two months here, away from the Utah cold. My wife Samur is still my precious rose and will be forever more!
On first meeting you were nothing. But there was love and this was initiated. Heart met the combination of fire and ice. You have cleverly presented this poem of love. This love has brought you ahead for now and forever. An amazing poem this is definitely...10
My best wishes for both of you. I send you my congratulation for your Poem, a beautiful demonstration of love
A lovely poem! My daughter spent several months in Thailand and loved the country and the people. Congratulations on finding a love that lasted!
Love this poem! It is interesting to read the details of when and where you met. It is so romantic!
An endorsement of love and marriage for life, which I like. A passing allusion to Robert frost's poem, 'Fire and Ice' fits well in the poem. I identify with 'We both had nothing', and 'Then, Now, and Forever'. I have had nothing at times.
Beautiful poem about a tender love. Bea, our sister-in-law, coming to America. So exciting for our family. A love that brought our family closer together.
