All of your writing has an air of romance to it, even the piees about war. But this was pure romance at its best. The sweetness of the first encounter was clearly an earth moving event. I enjoyed the imagery of the moonlight and the moments before the dawn. Beautiuflly written.

Putting the contest vibes aside, this is a wonderfully penned romance poem. So alluring in words and strings of love phrases running on a platter of elements of nature like 'silent night', 'moonlight', 'rays of the moon' and 'dawn.' I love the metaphor in "A ring of gold lay on your hand."

A very sweet, ever-so-slightly erotic poem of first encounters. An interesting reference to marriage and purity makes this poem feel as if it is situated sometime in the past. Some lovely lines and incidental rhyming.

The joy and wonder of love's first encounter is beautifully depicted in this heartfelt piece. The pacing and balance is delicate enough to create an even flow through the entire rendition. Well done.

Till the last amen

Gary, What a gorgeous presentation. Just beautiful. I remember my first love after fifty five years. Everything about this poem is perfect. The font reflects a softness and the rose purifies it. Just lovely, Carole

I've always heard that the first night of deep intimacy provide a nostalgic memory that lasts for ever. I know this was true for me. Your poem creates that wonderful atmosphere and reinforces my personal first night.

I love the vivid mental and emotional images you capture in this tender poem of pure love. Thank you sharing this special night with an easy flow that reaches deep into one
s mind.

This poem looks like a winner to me.

Another beautiful poem you have written, and I enjoyed reading. I did find a lot of rhyme though, so when this happens, I just say free verse and rhyme mix, but you can do whatever you choose. The love exchanged between these two is described so sensually and in good taste. And the passion is definitely there. Your choice of wording is great, as always, and I wish you the best of luck. . .Sharon
