Come on. You can do better than this. You have got us going and then suddenly it's finished. You express yourself so well and we want more. And in this poem less is definiotely not more..

Tes, it is funny. But I am not sure about whether it works with the analogy of "Aim for the sky." Something like "Frolic with the beasts" may work better.

This poem transmits a powerful sense of heartache. but in one or two places I was thrown. What do you mean by "before the quietus of us"? Also it is not altogether clear whom you are addressing always. In the second verse I thought it was me, the reader, then later it is plain you address your loved one. But I found myself very moved. Well done.

Very funny. A nice (old fashioned meaning) touch. Stylish. Elegant

A fine ertoric tribute to some great rumpy pumpy (as we sometimes call it in the UK)

Beautiful, coherent and with a master's touch, this poem deserves the accolades it is receiving.
