There is such a warmth in these words, and it extends beyond a duet, but to the whole word in sharing love by all of humanity in celebration of God and nature.

Hi,Brooke :-)
"A Valentine Duet" is an exceptional poem with good meter (rhythm) and excellent rhyme and rhyme scheme acbb quatrains. The figurative language and imagery is good (my heart has never been solo.) Good luck in the contest. Since I have no more real stars I award you six virtual stars that emanate from my heart.

So cute! Kids love a piano. My old upright has had its share of little fingers hovering over the keys. Noisy business. LOL!

Love the rhymes. Valentine's Day is just around the corner now. The days fly by. Good luck in the contest, Brooke.

Hi Brooke,
A delightful Valentine poem.
It would grace a special card on the day.
I trust the children were thumping out "Great Balls of Fire."
Good luck in the contest.

Ron, thank you so much :-) I think Nora's piano lessons have her more in the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star category. LOL :-) Brooke

This is delightful to read. It has such a heartwarming message.I wish the world could take your advice...harmony for all, No solo songs here. Duets for all. The rhyme and rhythm are perfect.

Another well written perfectly rhymed poem and excellent rhythm which is appropriate since it's about music! Great job once again and keep it up.

This was so sweet. I am wondering if you have a musical background, because many of your pieces have the musical theme to them. I liked the lyrical feel to this. The imagery and the need of participation from the other is wonderful. You just put me in the mood for Valentine's. Have a great day.

Gretchen, thank you so very much for your generous response to this poem :-) I was always in the school chorus from junior high to college and took piano and voice lessons, but mainly, I just love music :-) Brooke

Excellent photo of the two on the piano. I like the combination you made by Valentine needing two people, so they play a song with the piano.
