The kind of love you describe in your lovely 5-7-5 poem is not as rare as one might think at first -- time has a way of softening hearts.
But how you describe it IS rare. I am not surprised this was a winning entry. Congratulations!

A great job for the 5-7-5 contest.
A very easy read that has a nice flow and pace. With so little you covered a lot of love.
Thank you, and good luck.

Ciao poet!

I love everything about this beautiful poem from the wording to the touching artwork.

My favourite words are:

Slowly melding our hearts and inseparable

You get my vote but also a six star review because the poem is exceptional.

Delightful! I love the black and white image reflected so sweetly in your 5-7-5 which flows and enchants, capturing the brief of the contest, romance. Well done! Debbie

When you get older, you either grow apart or stay together. This couple stayed together and shared their love for one another. Never let anyone get between your love for one another. Like your poem.
