The repeating line works well and the depth of the poem remains throughout.
Love is far stronger than many of us know, and sometimes the words rebound too easily, yet the deepness of it can be seen in this short poem.
Good write,
good luck in the competition.

A lovely Pantoum Sonnet contest entry. Your theme is great and the poem flows well from one stanza to the next. I can see lines repeating although I do not know much about this form. Best wishes for the contest. luv jada

Hi Brooke,
This is such a sweet and perfectly crafted poem. Of course I would never expect less from you.
I'm just concerned about Sawyer and his bestest lady friend because in another few years they may be playing doctor. Oh, just smack my face, hee hee.
Hugs,
Lou

Hello...a poem about love...well and about staying in love shape. I figure the heart is a muscle...without use it gets small...love and keep loving, that's the thing.

Exactly the right form and with a lovely photo again. Miranda makes many good photo's and the pair of them don't mind posing. Best wishes for the contest.

Ine, thank you so much, my generous friend :-) Sawyer cooperates with photos sometimes and totally refuses other times. A good trick is to snap them before he realizes the camera is there. LOL Brooke
Comment from Quire's Gal
hi Brooke,
This is simply stunning. Firstly, I think anyone who can get through a pantoum sonnet deserves an automatic six and a poetic purple heart.
This has an exceptionally smooth flow and doesn't seemed forced in any way. Great rhymes and meter as usual for you but the smooth transfer of repeated rhymes is what makes this so special. Love the ending couplet by the way...very touching and poetic.
Cheers and be well,
Katherine

Katherine, a poetic purple heart, sounds intriguing. I could hang the ribbon on the wall over the shelf with the trophies ;-) Thank you so much, my friend, for your generous sixth star :-) Brooke

May I ask permission to post your poem in my Facebook account? It contains what I have in mind and heart now. Fragile - this is the most appropriate word that describes my love towards my husband. It should be handle with so much care! Thanks in advance, Brooke... God bless... c", Mae

Thank you, Mae, for your generous review. I prefer you not post on Facebook. I always check the posting box about not sharing with other sites and public readers. Sharing with a friend through email is fine :-) Brooke

Okay! I understand. I'll just share it with my husband! Thank you, Brooke. God bless you!

I really adore this format. I love seeing how the poet works the required lines through the poem. You've done it beautifully, of course, Brooke.
This, to me, has a classic feel to it. Like the poetry of old, with refined language and a sense of sincerity in the words. It's very profound and very romantic.
Bravo, my lady!
Of course, the picture is, yet again, adorable too.
:)

Comment from Petriesan
hearts will wither if not entrusted to others is a very good line. For them to remain strong and viable, we must put them ast risk.
good piece
