Words beneath a dappled sky

Two for the darkness beneath the barrow mounds

This passage ranks right up there in Freaky Ghost Stories of my life - it's a relatively brief interlude in the narrative, but so dark.

Sometimes repetition works - tell them you love them every day.

Triolets, short love-notes with an echo

Sam and Rosie

This memory I shall hold dear,
My Rosie, ribbons in her hair -
For even through the pain and fear,
This memory I shall hold dear:
Her laugh alone I'd sometimes hear...
I saw her at the party fair.
This memory I shall hold dear,
My Rosie, ribbons in her hair.

And one that isn't exactly romance, but certainly faithful friendship:
