That magic moment when two hearts become one - and all fades to grey. You've captured that moment in this short but meaningful piece. Creative melding of two words makes it unique. Should do well in the contest.

Dear Mystery Poet,

First of all, even above your message, I loved the presentation. I feel pretty sure I know who the author is -- wink-- And I wish you great luck in the contest -- though using big words like that may set you back with some of our folks. hahahaha

I know -- I'm so rude! Thanks and good luck!

This poem reminds us how being with the one you love can blind you to other things around you. Though sometimes it can make be everything for clear and more beautiful.
Congrats on becoming the reviewer of the month.
Keep writing.

A very well-written 5-7-5 poem about a walk on the beach early morning before the sun rises the whole scene is chromatic in shades of gray except the yellow clothing of the walkers.

Wow!
An enthralling presentation, coupled with the imagery it and your words bring to life are sure to win big in the contest.
I believe in instant romance, but as your words, it often fades away all too soon.

Thank you for sharing your very creative and enjoyed piece! ~ Richard : )

Sooo, this is your doing, eh? I might've known â?¦ LOL!
It's beeeautiful! : )

Clever title that ties in with the 'fade to grey' in the poem.

I like the suggestion that the burgeoning love between the pair supersedes everything else, even colour.

Interesting word 'trepidatious.' Some dictionaries approve of it, others don't.

This should do well in the contest. Good luck.

Steve

Hi there,

I liked this piece. Excellent choice of words.

The one thing I would say is to maybe rethink the colour scheme. The background yellow makes the final line quite difficult to read as it bleeds into it too much.

All the best

Chromatic moments
To me, it means that the two person involved are not sure of what to expect or will happen. Therefore, their smiles were filled with anxiety. Unsure of the type of emotion to potray. May be they do not really know the true voice that speaks in the heart of the other.
As a result, the actions and emotions depicted by the two are not balanced or in equal.

Did I get it right there? Sweating here, right now.

Good luck in the contest. Thank you for sharing.

This is a unique write and fits in with the artwork so perfectly, but also stands alone, togetherness in a sticky situation shows a sense of love and hope, love Dolly x
