Now, how did I miss this gem? It is a charming Pantoum Sonnet - and a love sonnet at that.
Graceful lines that flow so well and are standard stock from your talented soul.
Loved the pairing of picture and poem. It adds a touch of innocence to love. Refreshingly endearing.
As usual, not a thing to fix or change.
Rose.

Very well crafted romantic love sonnet in Pantoum format. It flows seamlessly within the well chosen repeating phrases that linger and drift along like cresting waves of words. Best of luck in the contest.

Comment from 9999pool
I am truly lost in love with you. Though fragile it may be, I will surely be very sad when you are gone. Love's design had taken a grip on me. Though I am not bold about love's design, I feel love has trapped me in a place with no escape from the clutches of your love.
Brilliant write and well expressed.
Good luck.
Cheerio, hugs, Ritchie. :))

As fragile is the love I trust to you, there is no other course I can pursue. I love this. Love is fragile, yet it is our heart that leads the way.

Goodness. This is so good that I don't notice that the lines are repeating. So, that leaves me at a loss for words!! The meaning changes moving forward to an excellent conclusion. It's a great sonnet and as a bonus you did all kinds of fancy stuff too!! mikey

Comment from Joan E.
The cute picture of Sawyer and his pal could not have been better staged! If he had your words, Sawyer would sing them to the skies. I enjoyed your rhymes and repeats in this rhythmic, love sonnet. Best wishes in the contest with this splendid Pantoum- Joan
