You managed to say a lot in this little poem, and to conjure up memories that nearly everyone has of seeing "that" look across a crowded room. And along with the relevant artwork, it makes a nice presentation. Good luck with the contest.

Hot little poem of tentative love, the potent meeting of the eyes. Good use of your syllables picking specific things and tying them together, Enjoyed reading it. Love the artwork.

Delicious illustration complements your short, restricted text

the (alluring?) gaze is perfect for whispering his name

best wishes in your contest entry

Well done!
The Form is great and the resulting impact of picture, words, concept, and actualization is marvelous. This is a complete work of art.

-Effective use of one continuous thought.
-The imagery in line two
has a soft, quiet sound.

and saying it, you also
show the person's interest in her.

    So, you seem to have positive comments .... could you please explain why you only gave 2 stars? There are no negative critiques or suggestions for improvement....why, then, the below average rating? Thank you very much for letting me know so that I have something to work toward next time......

    I didn't give you two stars on purpose. It was an accident. I have updated my rating. Sorry for the error.

You did a good job conveying a thought and scene for the reader. You did this in three lines and nine syllables, not an easy task. I think most have at one time or other experienced the gaze across the room, whether imagined or real. Thank you for sharing.
