This was a very fun read for a love poem. I usually avoid them like the plague. I really liked how you created a bit of anticipation with "she knows he's watching" and "he knows she's waiting". Plus all the ice cream talk made this deliciously delightful. - Steve

I hate mushy love poems, too, Steve - but ... I don't mind a SLURPY one if it involves chocolate! :))Sharyn

Agreed! :)

This was a gorgeous poem. Teasing and tantalizing with magnificent S alliterations throughout. Beautiful imagery created for your reader. A very entertaining story being told here. So wish that I had a six to give you for this one .... it is just great! Fave line "she knows he's watching".
Well done ~ Sharyn

Oh yes this is a sexy one. Very true that summertime is the time for love. I still remember those days of sunshine ice cream and how beautiful and sweet my love was and still is as a matter of fact. Great flow of words tell your story here that bring back many good memories. This is a great writing.

no pun intended ( well, maybe)- a sweet love poem smouldering w/sensuality. love how everything, even the gulls with nested heads tucked warm beneath their wings leads to " the first sugared stars showering the dark". oh, to live in a universe of chocolate sprinkles

Comment from adewpearl
lovely alliteration in silver smooth by sea and salt
I love the assonance in drips/skips/kisses
great sensory detail with strong appeal to the senses
nice alliteration in burnished beach
good consonance of L sound in slides a little closer
love the hyphenate in double-dappled
great closing - this is delightfully exuberant and cheery and smile inducing :-) Brooke

There is nothing like those first innocent kisses.

This one's so smooth and seamless. I like the almost run-on descriptions of chocolate ice cream drips, kisses and sugar cones. Overall, it's am an exceptional piece of writing. Good luck in the contest!
