Comment from rosehill (Wendy)
Interesting mix of meters which slowed down my read and made ME pay attention to the lovely message. Impatience and inattention are two of my "must work on"irritations with myself. This is a lovely reminder that anyone we might is a potential love, friend and ally. Thanks for the reminder to be in the moment. - Wendy

Comment from Alan K Pease
Lovely poem of Chloe on the way to meet Sawyer who seems to expect her with anticipation. Who knows where their romance of souls might lead in their bright futures

Comment from acerisestory
Another thought provoking poem, Brooke, short and to the point. Your message is interesting and a lesson. We probably should all pay more attention to things happening in our lives; don't want to lose out!
Good rhyming. Nice use of alliteration in should/saunter; sorrows/such; thrive/those, and your poem moves with a good rhythm. I like the last two lines:
especially when love will thrive
for those who do the asking
Nice!. Thanks for sharing. Alana

Comment from drivenbackward
I think it would be very difficult to find a better picture for this poem. As a father, I can relate completely. I'm sometimes impatient, but hate when I act that way. It's the loving, patient moments that are, well, the most memorable. Great poem with meaning and emotional power.

Comment from Just2Write
I loved your poetic interpretation of the photo, Brooke. The message is so right on too. Love may just slip by those who are not bold enough to ask for it.
This meter is a bit different for you, but it suits the mood of the poem very well. Some lines with 2 iambs and 1 bacchius. (da-DUM da-DUM, da-DUM-DUM.)
I think it adds a delightful flavour to this series of Quatrains. While my muse has been vacationing, I've been playing with the various kinds of metric feet. It's been a fascinating experience.
Rose.

Thanks so much, Rose - the world would be so boring if every blessed poem had the exact same iambic meter :-) Brooke

So true. Iambs are the vanilla of poetry. tehy're nice... but sometimes it's nicer to change the flavour. ;o)

Comment from aureanesha
Great Poem, i like the way you use only few words but it define the whole idea you want to share. The choice of unfamiliar words bring more meanings in a sentences. Great piece of art :) love it
