This is a catchy love poem. the three line verses with the rhyming pattern, first two lines rhyming and final lines rhyming give it an interesting twist. Is there a name for this structure of rhyme? I think grandmother really loves Sawyer.

He certainly looks as if the whole world is his oyster in that photograph! No wonder you had to write a poem about it!
Let us hope most sincerely that he does not become a slave to those machines! I'm feel sure that you provide a very good counterbalance!

Beautifully written in every way
What a wonderful picture of Sawyer.
No one could calculate the love we feel for our loved ones
Especially this special boy.
I have no six

Ah, Brooke, this is a tidy little love poem. I enjoyed reading it very much. Very smooth flow of words. Sawyer looks like he is about to say, 'Can I help you?' Love it. Miss Sally

Comment from rama devi
Love this charming entry for the contest, Brooke. Superb rhyming and echoed lines in the opening and closing, tying the poem together like a ribbon on a gift. It's expressive, well rhymed and timed and finely presented with your cute little guy.
Good phonetics, as usual. I like how calculate and articulate share consonance of C as well as rhyming. Nice consonance and alliteration of C and W in first stanza, L in the second and third,
Favorite lines:
for feelings never hesitate,
and there's no need to calculate
a love that cannot be denied.
Nice one. Lovely theme--well voiced.
Warmly, rd

Comment from Rainbowsofhappiness
A sweet tender poignant poem that conveys the writer's emotions through the words thus delivering a last impact on the reader as well. The photograph accompanying this poem is well suited to further evoke the images that the writer passionately describes through her words. The emotions of love and admiration for her child are prominent in this poem through the word choices and using the analogy of calculating the writer's love for her child through the use of mathematical terms is creative and unique in a love poem. The love a parent has for their child truly can never be put into words or given an exact amount, that love is eternal and infinite. Well written, great analogy throughout, and the photo adds to the unspoken words that are present, yet unsaid. Beautiful sentiment!
