| Posted by Max Bouillet on 11/08/04 at 03:14 AM Love folds and envelopes us... we may wear it daily, but in the end we come home shed the exterior and are warmed in the arms of another. Beautiful and fitting tribute. |

| Posted by JD Clay on 11/09/04 at 04:39 AM This piece comes across with ultimate volume and clarity, Glenn.
The beauty of this subtle yet dramatic presentation is second only to the mutual devotion and shared committment to endearing love.
I'm jealous.

| Posted by Alex Smyth on 11/11/04 at 06:42 PM You portray the domestic chore in such a tender light, and then apply the committment it embodies into your whole relationship. How touching, your verses sing of intimacy on all levels. This goes into my favorites folder as well as suggestion for POTD. Blessings to you and yours:o) |

| Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 11/23/04 at 01:22 PM Eloquent and tender tribute to the love of your life. Original, refreshing use of symbolism. I am selecting this as one of my favorites! |

deserving...Charlie |
| Posted by Laura Doom on 12/02/05 at 07:49 PM Hah! I didn't even see this when potd - this has a wonderfully sensitive shape to it, both literally and metaphorically, tastefully personal - exceptional writing. |
| Posted by Jean Mollett on 09/21/06 at 03:52 AM Hi Glenn,
It's a beautiful tribute for the love of you life. :) |
| Posted by Jean Mollett on 09/21/06 at 03:53 AM Tha'ts of love of your life. Oooops. |
| Posted by Jean Mollett on 09/21/06 at 03:54 AM did it again. |
| Posted by Bruce W Niedt on 05/17/08 at 05:55 AM I must of missed this way back when it was POTD, but just came across it randomly tonight. I'm so glad I did - what a marvelous poem of enduring love. The anaphora - the repeated phrases and implied repeated actions - really set up a kind of rhythm in this, which is partly what makes it so memorable. Excellent.... d:-) |
| Posted by Meghan Helmich on 06/10/08 at 08:24 PM what's the name of this form? i can totally see myself managing this one...beautiful poem! |
| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 03/10/12 at 03:48 PM I'm so glad this came up in the Favorites column as I had not seen it. I appreciate the ordinary folding of clothes along side the extraordinary love story "unfolding". Nicely done, Glenn. |
