Touching poem. Can someone tell me why young people don't get married anymore? Did we damage them that much? Now they only shack up.

Hello Mary;
-what you think of this part of your line of your 2nd verse 2nd line: "; this(our) love but has bitten." I just thought it was more directly associated with your love.
-Other than that I thought your poem beautifully written in both context, theme and format. Is your writing and rhythmic skills along with your rhyming adaptations are perfect and being composed excellently well.
-And your picture, by the way congratulations, is so effectively appropriate for enhancing the poem and be relative to the poem's effectiveness in creating the reader's association with your writing which prepares the reader for what is written and also grasps the reader's attention to read the poem.
-Good luck in the contest and take care and have a good one Mary.
Alex

This is a very lovely poem with great emotion and passion. The rhyming is really good and unforced and the syllable count is consistent throughout which allows the poem to flow effortlessly. I did notice a possible typo in the second stanza. Love will keep up (us) together. This is a really nice poem, keep up the good work. Best of luck in the contest.

Love will certainly go a long way in keeping couples together as the years go by as this poem depicts.

Should make for a good contest entry for this prompt.
