5-7-5 Love Poem
Contest Winner

Recognized


Sandra, 71, and her husband Giancarlo, 73, celebrated their 50th anniversary from neighboring hospital beds while both being treated for the coronavirus. They held hands while on ventilators, and the touching moment was captured by nurse Roberta Ferretti. Healthcare workers also got them a small cake with a "50" candle and played the wedding march, Italian media reported. "He kept repeating how much he loves her, we broke into tears. In the air, you could feel the love you chase your whole life,"

Thank you very much for reading and reviewing my 5/7/5 love poem.
