The distance between us is like
you are a river,
and I'm a cloud.
When you flow into the open arms
of the ocean,
all I can do is
adore your sweet gurgle
over a little pebble!

I just do not know how you keep producing these gorgeous little love-poems, I really don't! The contrast between the cloud and the river is so stark, and I wonder if it contrasts emotions? That's anothe reason I love your work, it doesn't hit you in the face, it sneaks in to the psyche. Beautiful!

Thanks, Dafydd, for the gorgeous feedback.
The contrast between a cloud and a river is the distance between me and my sweet little one! They could imply emotions!
The classic Chinese poems never hit readers in the face;
they just sneak in to their psyche and heart as you said!
What lovely, imaginative tenderness!
Thanks, Prince, for your lovely feedback!

Thanks, Jerry, for the childlike feedback.
It mirrors your childlike heart!
it sounds like an ode to a beautiful child.
Thanks, Delta, for your comment!
When my scribbling is done and presented here, it's open to interpretation
though I didn't mean the way you thought!
Anyway, I'm gland that you have a beautiful childlike heart reflected from your comment!

Though you're young in age, but I think you're learned and know how to appreciate poems better than I do!
