| Posted by Anita Mac on 09/21/04 at 02:16 AM This is very cute and clever, not as cliche as the idea of "chemistry" can be. I like it! ~Nita |

| Posted by Christina Bruno on 09/21/04 at 04:10 AM very creative. i was good in chemistry in high school. i think i'm pretty bad at it at real life. negatives and positives...mm hmm lol brilliant, as usual |
| Posted by Karl Waldbauer on 09/21/04 at 04:45 AM Long ago one of the giant chemical corps. (DuPont or Dow) used the slogan "Better Living Through Chemistry". You described the real thing, Anne, and it feels like love. Karl |
| Posted by JD Clay on 09/21/04 at 01:15 PM Potent poetry, Anne. You've become the alchemist, by the sting of cupid's arrow. Pe4ce... |
| Posted by Rula Shin on 09/21/04 at 02:43 PM "simple chemistry" - ah yes and as JD suggests, who is a better alchemist than the lover who simply IS LOVE. Beautiful as always Anne. :-) |
| Posted by Charles J Hannan on 09/21/04 at 08:30 PM This is a sweet poem, honey....wonderfully written!....MUAHS!! |
| Posted by David R Spellman on 09/21/04 at 10:12 PM I have to agree with Karl that you've really put forth here the true chemistry of better living. Excellent! |
| Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 09/22/04 at 01:39 AM Really wonderful chemistry. That is what a committed couple should be -- complimenting and completing each other. Reminds me of scripture which says two (man and woman) become one! Wonderful writing! |

| Posted by Glenn Currier on 11/18/04 at 02:54 PM Clever and touching poem, Anne. It speaks volumes about intimacy and commitment in just a few words. Well done, my dear. |
| Posted by Steven Kenworthy on 12/11/05 at 07:10 AM poems like this just MAKE you want to be in love. a gorgeous and scientific breakdown of something that is so much bigger than science itself. it's so chemistry class to read this that it feels like i should have my nose in a book with two pretty faces looking back at me. awesome poem anne. |
| Posted by Maria Massarella on 11/07/07 at 08:19 AM Birds outside my window tweet sweetly in agreement to the wonder-chemistry of your poem, Anne ... much like the golden azures of the day. What delight it is to find you POTD! I adore the simplicity of your chemistry ... *knuffels |
| Posted by Maria Massarella on 11/07/07 at 08:24 AM eh ... not that the golden azures 'tweet' but that they are in agreement for the wonder ... *smiles |
| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 11/07/07 at 07:17 PM Congrats on POTD Anne. Excellent choice! Witty analogy. I can see that I somehow missed this one when you posted it in 2004, so glad I finally got to read it. Adds to favourites. :o) |
| Posted by Michelle Angelini on 11/07/07 at 08:14 PM The best kind of chemistry there is. Congratulations on POTD! WOO HOO! Let's hear it for love and all those who are in it.

| Posted by Kathleen Wilson on 11/07/07 at 11:33 PM In perfect balance...the placement of you and me could not be better. I love and know the feeling-- of "changing properties" that make possible that unprecedented solidity"... the "forever" ""us""... so beautiful... and in my favorites. Thank you, potd!! |
| Posted by Charles E Minshall on 11/07/07 at 11:37 PM Congratulations on poem of the day Anne. A truly
great love is like that.....Charlie |
