Sorry I missed this contest. I thought this was a very good in sentiment and rhymes. Love is one of those almost explainable emotions. Hits you like a brick sometimes.

Take care,
Russell

Oh....how joyous to read a proper poem.
Beautifully done, so simple and yet...so worth...the only way love should be. I absolutely loved this. My idea of one that should be battling for the win, for though the structure is of the competition, you have found the heart that clothe it like wedding gown to a bride.
beautifully done. I have no sixes or this would have received.
My best wishes, and good luck.

Very beautiful poem. How suddenly love catches us in its grasp...

I like this line, mainly because of the word "perennially":
"I'll play the field," I said with glee,
"perennially with no regret."

"My heart stood still; it had no choice" is also a great line.

I love it.

Hello author, A dreamy fantasy and a poem that leaves the reader with that feeling of "ahhh" ... very nice. I especially liked:

My heart stood still; it had no choice
when she bestowed on me her smile.

(first the smile, and then comes the locking of the eyes, and then two souls are smitten, sometimes forevermore.)

Lovely, romantic complementary artwork choice. This poem made me smile. As this is a writing prompt entry, I wish you good luck. LateBloomer

I like this whimsical poem. It could describe the meeting of many couples. The sea and it's sounds and visual beauty doth inspire romance after all. Your picture presents you poem well.

And that was all it took. All his bravado, washed away in the waves, for a stroll on the beach with Angie. LOVE this...words and picture, beautiful, blessings...
