I know not who you are, but I see a genius, evil as they may be, at work. How did you decide to use this form, I've never seen before. It had me confused, inquiring, what are they doing, and then I found the key was to read North to South, and it became abundantly clear. Very well done.

You have given a lot of definition to love.I like,'love is crossing the nile...'very much and also about the mother finch .But the best is the last line .Love is simply a life style.

It is difficult to read this poem with the words scattered about like this and your approach is unusual and leaves the reader a choice of words. You captured the essence of love here, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

I think that your message is a really good one, and the artwork that you selected is beautiful. However, with the way it is set up I had a very difficult time reading it. I saw your note that it was not to be read in any particular order, and that it didn't read from left to right. Still, I wasn't sure how to read it. Best of luck in this and all endeavors.

It's about the freesest free verse I've ever encountered!

After a bit, I had fun fitting lines together to form a linear thought from a nonlinear presentation!

"love is the mother finch who constructs the nest"

--That appealed!

Avant garde!

Uniquely you, anonymous!

As "the eyes of crocodiles will scan your movement"

--

I'll be looking to see how this fares in the contest!!!

Thanks for coloring outside the lines!

I enjoyed reading this verse about love.

The sentiment is clear and heartfelt.
It is funny how we can forget what love
is and can be.
But then a poet expresses it perfectly.

I will admit the format makes it a little
confusing to read, as I had to reread a
few times to grasp the meaning.

I do appreciate the uniqueness of the
presentation.

Thank you for sharing.

I feel this author said everything and more that love is! I really liked the
last 3 lines. I once read love is a risk and we choice to love. I felt the last 3 lines comes close to my previous sentence! The poem flows and connects well. The way this poem is written is extremely creative. The artwork goes well with these words!

Brilliant!!! What a spectacular write. An interesting approach composing a free verse with the idea of a poem within a poem in answer to the What is Love? contest prompt. There is a wealth of wisdom in the many individual stanzas climaxing in a a first class closing statement defining the simplicity of Love.

Cheers,

Eugene
