This is very well done in conveying the universal truth that love conquers all and overcomes all, even death. Thanks for the poetic reminder. :)

How beautiful. You are right, even death cannot take our memories away of those we love. You have said so much in so few words. Well done.

Loved it!
You expressed so much here:
Even death's claim
Holds no power over memory's touch
Death has no power over memory.

The ease of reading this comes first, the message is clear after a thought and the subject (title) is reiterated in the actions.
Love is left on the mind when all has been touched.
Thank you, great effort.

The phrase "less is more" comes to mind as I read your poem. Sometime a lot can be said with just a few words. Your poem qualifies for that statement with high marks.

The memory of love is powerful and strong as you describe here. Great job with the writing form and one feels good after reading this poem. Memory is indeed more powerful than death.

Hello Mrs. Kt,
Here is what I felt as I read and re-read your poem:
This I have Come to know:" Establishes an extended time period, and implies a wisdom gained.
"Even death's claim Holds no power over memory's touch." Establishes that the time period from above was one of grieving, and informs us about the wisdom gained: that grief and loss will dwindle in the presence of (love's) memory.
Very soothing and hopeful. I liked this poem: its structure and the emotions it evokes.
Good Luck in the contest,
Calanatan
