Don't you just love love? How many times has this happened? I wonder if "drift" into love is the beginning, and real love gets deeper as you go along. Nicely done story. 1972, wow, thinking back, those were powerful days. Oh, to start over from there in the love department! Good luck in the contest.

Good writing and quote a relatable subject. I think at sometime or another we have all wondered about having a relationship with a friend. Your graphic was very good, you also could have used a picture of two birds.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Here I will I gave this 6 because of its flow form slightly humorous. The rhyme and meter worked well together oh, well I did find one misspelled word that you need to fix to make it look professional :

that way,
it is thier friends say,
it was hard for them to accept it,
but they sure did love it.

I also have an alternate wording for you to consider:

Henry never thought of falling in love,
with Lisa, his best friend,
It seemed that every time he sees her, here comes the doves from above.
We tried to catch her eye but it seemed that she wouldn't bend.

For the last paragraph maybe this suggestion

My how things change
so fast,
If they thought about each other this way, in the past it was absurd
But as everything turned about,
they are now love birds.

Blessings,

Brother Badger Cull

    awesome glad you liked my ideas and you Jenna a little bit differently not exactly as I worded it. However, I believe it's important for you to add the word now to the last line so instead of reading we are love birds it will say to think of each other in the way and attached was absurd but things have changed and we are now lovebird. Emphasizing the proper spacing time using the proper subjective timer fence blown at and it helps the syllable count
