Aw, that is a lovely lovely poem written in free verse. I so hope this is biographical. It gives me hope.
I really liked that it can be read both ways. Good luck in the contest. All best, Ulla xcx

    Thank you so much for reading and for your kind review. Yes, it is based on my marriage although I would say it’s not always rosy. Good more than 80% of the time so good enough in my book lol.

An excellent entry for the Free Verse Love poem contest. It is lovely as a free verse poem and then you discover it is also a mirror poem. I have been trying to do a decent mirror poems for a long time and can't get it to work. Good job on yours! Good luck in the contest.

A lovely rhyming couplet love poem.
My grandson's have been saying, "I love you to the moon and back" to the family and I love it. Sweet sentiment in a cleverly written poem.

Blessings

How sweet and neat this poem reads and means
whether it is read from top to bottom or...
from bottom to top...
or East to West or West to East
and if given the chance from North to South
and well, you know. Well done.

Mrs Anna Howard, Here I was all prepared to read a flowing free verse poem, and was pleasantly surprised by an excellent write of rhyming couplets which are just as effectively and poignantly read in reverse direction...I liked that you only used two feminine rhymes (spoken/token)
to express these amorous affections/attractions for your significant other.
Good luck with this in the contest. teafor2

I don't think it's really a free verse poem, but it's a darn good one, the closest thing I can get is an aabb rhymed with a kyrielle flavour of a repeating line, beautifully written, good luck, blessings Roy

    Thank you so much for reviewing and sharing your thoughts! I wondered too if a free verse can rhyme. Oh well lol.

    Not really, it can, but sporadically only, I've written a few. But that's OK Ann, it was still good.

Wow! I have too difficult of a time to even write a poem and you wrote one...a very beautiful one with lots of meaning - that can be read in either direction. How awesome is that!
Smiles, Carol

Well that is clever. I did one of those a while back. They are hard work. This is a lovely example. For more free pictures you can go to Google, Bing, Stock, and Pinterest among others. Just write in your author's notes where they come from. keep writing. Karen

Hi I can see you are full of love and you are happy. Nothing should disturb this . There is love here and there is trust and I am sure there is always happiness. Still be on the safe side... add a pinch of care for yourself.
