This is so charming. I love the repeating lines you use. "For all I'll ever need is you" is suggests such a strong commitment. Cherishing and savoring are a great way to describe the joys of life, especially if spent with that special person. Your rhyme and the flow of the poem are perfection, as always. What a charming picture, with wonderful smiles of joy. judi

Being the educated poet I am - NOT - I had to look up what a triolet was. I honestly am stunned by the number of forms of poetry there are. I love this little poem...it is a mother's (grandmother's) heart speaking her. Lovely.

A great job with your Triolet poem structure. Line repetitions flow smoothly from one to the other.End rhymes are perfect as well. Beautiful picture of your family. 8-)

Another beautiful poem. This reminded me of the old Bread song "If". Your daily words of encouragement have helped me recover my faith in man and hope in the power of God to heal.

hi Brooke,

Lovely triolet that flows smoothly. Good rhyme with two/drew.

For some reason my ear wants to hear "just us two" but can't come up with a reason why.

Good luck in the contest,
Katherine.

Thank you, Katherine - we too is subjective - we were
us is objective - there would have to be a sentence like - he saw us two
I appreciate your thoughtful review :-) Brooke
