Dad said, "take you hands off Chloe." Nora is not talking! A lovely verse that flows with the mind as you present one picture after another in the mind of the reader. Lovely. A very enjoyable
verse. Smiles, Robin :)

A whimsical and delightful profession of a love beyond measure. Sometimes I think that the depth of love is best expressed in the infinite beauty of a single perfect bloom, but the profusion you suggest certainly expresses the limitless bubbling over of joy and excess that is love in its first flush!

What a lovely poem written in honor of your grandson and his Chloe. There can never be too many ways to express love and flowers are one of the very best representations of fondness. The rhyming and flow of this poem are flawless and the imagery was filled with happiness. Excellent. Blessings, Linda

This is so sweetly romantic, Brooke! I love the perfect rhyme and meter as always. The tender message is very touching. I also love the photo of Sawyer and Chloe it's great to see a boy and girl playing so well together at that age. It's really good for both of them. Great job!

Hi Brooke,

Ah, young love. I recently came across a study which suggests that the most successful marriages are ones where the partners have known one another continuously from childhood. Perhaps this will be one of them ...

Great picture. I admit flowers isn't enough to show true affection, but still a nice token of that love. Nice rhyming, in that it's not your usual rhymes. A superb quatrain. Les

Another great job on the poem and Sawyer and his friend are both adorable. Sometimes a body finds themselves just sitting and pondering the question "What it". What would have happened if I'd done this or if I'd done that.

You write so beautifully, Brooke. I would love to have your talent! The picture is adorable! I loved 'I'd need at least a field to fill, with overflowing flowers....'that was my favorite stanza.
