This poem, I'd Give This to You, presented with 8-6-8-6 ABCB-rhymed quatrains, pulls the hyperbolic universe into play his gifts for one's loved one.

You have written an excellent 8-6-8 poem
Your poetic plan keeping in line with the theme of romance is superb

When reading your poetic presentation for me it exhibits emotions of great passion, positive change of personality as a result, super descriptive analogies. A very lovely presentation of feeling and dreams of a relationship with another human being.

My only concern for re-thought and change would be linked to
verse five and the rhyming. All of the other verses of lines 6 except for verse 5 rhyme well. Example: (need verses sea)
Comment noted only because it said in the instructions "to write a rhyming romantic poem". For me the latter comment should not detract in anyway from the overall beauty of your submission.

'For I have silver in the stars
and gold in the morning sun'

So goes the old song by Don Williams, 'Country Boy' and this poem reminded me of the old theme that 'Money Can't Buy Me Love' - that one was the Beatles of course. This written in ballad metre, iambic tetrameter alternating with iambic trimeter and rhyming abcb just like so many of the old traditional ballads.

This is such a beautiful poem of love. It flows so smoothly and your choice of words create a vivid visual even without the wonderful image you chose.
Thanks very much for sharing.

Gold and silver I do not have. All I have is a simple strand of six stars. I award it to you for your wordsmith excellence. Artwork is not needed but work in harmony -- like God said when he gave us his offering -- creation -- "All is good.".

This is a beautiful love poem that graduates from I would give to the elements are stationary and you are all I need. It is nice to read a poem that does not have a lot of things that should be bleeped out but just plain emotion. Good luck in the contest this is a winner.

This is--no kidding--really a fine poem of romance and YES rhyming that feels sincere and written from your heart. Anyone who has ever felt so in live it's like their floating can relate... I'm smiling just remembering every crush, puppy love and true love through the years!--Karenina

Dang it, as we say here in Kentucky... "you write good". I like your phrasing. I considered entering this contest but I knew if I did, I'd most likely lose to boogienights.
