Comment from Bill Schott

Excellent

This is a very Valentine-appropriate poem that renders the hopeful message of togetherness and mutual admiration that we all should want to establish. Nice.

Comment from Acquired Taste

Excellent

What a sweet poem of love and emotion.

And the need for another to join in finishing your gift shows you are incomplete without them - thus without their love. I like it.

This is a beautiful poem from the author. Again, I am thrilled to see a beautiful picture of Sawyer. This brightens up this cold January morning and brings a smile to my face.

This is a really nice Valentine. The song metaphor works very well in defining the relationship. It gives you scope for extended imagery eg 'composed for two', making it a lyrical and enjoyable poem of love.

Wow, I really enjoyed this Valentine poem. Really enjoyed the message, the rhyming, and the rhyme scheme of 8-7-8-7 syllables in each line. A very tight poem. Loved it. LorraineK

Wonderful opening lines in the first two stanzas. Nice use of musical terms: solo, duet, harmonize, notes. A unique love poem perfect for Valentine's Day.

A beautiful poem, Brooke, accompanied by a precious photo. Little Sawyer is getting big! This poem worked well within the meter and rhyme pattern you set, and made for easy reading. I felt this poem worked for all kinds of love, romantic or not, which made it all the sweeter reading.

Blessings,

~ J.
