Congratulations on having your love poem well received in the contest. I admired your free verse and parallel, mood-setting picture. You certainly conveyed the "ache" vividly. Well done- Joan

Congrats on your recognition for this poignant piece. Vivid and alliterative re the shards of shattered glass. I was rooting for you to smash through. Sorry it didn't happen, Cheers. LIZ

'Destined for eternal longing' is such a sad place to be. You capture all the pathos of love denied in this gripping poem. There is passion and exasperation wrapped up in the emotion of 'love unending'.

Excellent free verse! It's a wonderful idea and best of luck in the contest. Your wording is beautiful and the imagery is so compelling--being on different sides of the window pane. This suggests the impossibility of ever getting together. You truly convey the longing, the desire to be on the other side of the window pane. judi

    Thanks Judi! I saw the picture and the words just fell out. Normally it is writing that inspires the picture I choose, but in this case, it was the picture that inspired the words. Appreciate your kind review!! xoxo

Hello Diana, well, if this is not a love poem, then tell me what is? it is stunning - beautifully composed, lovely display and your wording is just perfect. Great use of the window pane as a barrier that keeps the lovers apart - good use of metaphor. Good luck in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy x

Very nice poem, very sensual, a love trying to be set free, if only for that one special moment, a moment of awakening where just one touch could set two souls on fire burning long into the night.

Great picture and great melody by Yanni.

This is an excellent free verse entry for the love poem contest. The emotion comes through clearly in the well-written lines. The concluding two-line verse is a strong finish.

This is a wonderful love poem. Something is separating these two people and whether it's something tangible or emotional, they cannot be together. The picture portrays that in an excellent manner. That's a blinding white wolf at my face yes I'll hold this up it was shining right in my face I wouldn't lie I'll put this up on us hold us up

    Good heavens, I was talk texting and Tom was doing something to the TV and using a high powered flashlight which was blinding me. He said it can?t be that bad. It all came out in your review, so sorry,,
