I love the dramatic nature of this declaration of love
excellent knight imagery and enthusiasm that definitely sounds like it is spoken by an impressionable young girl who is thoroughly smitten :-) Brooke

    Thank you Brooke for taking the time to read and review my poem. I appreciate the encouraging words and that you seem to understand exactly what I was trying to accomplish. Sharing my work is new for me so your feedback means a lot.

Faults? You have none
Except, perhaps,
Being too much of everything
I desire.

I love this part... such honesty. But it IS a flaw in that we have so much more to lose if things go wrong. It's frightening. This is a great "classic style" love poem. Very well done. :)

I love the picture. I adore knights of old. I love the poem. Every one deserves someone who thinks of them that way. Love is blind only to another's faults. That is when the loved one is everything you want. Great work.

Reading the rules, reader must say you narrowly held the line within the rules for this contest...although you came dangerously close.

You did not have to use the prohibited terms to get your meaning across.

Wishing you the best in the contest.

This is a fun and creative and touching piece of poetry. I like your use of "gallant" and your reference to the "paladin of lore". Good luck in the contest!
