I enjoyed your poem. You did a good job expressing your feelings. So many believe love dies as you age. But your poem states the way it should be. Good job. No changes. Good luck in the contest.

Sun' s scraps wrap us - great line, obviously not the sun of youth where everything blazes, more akin to sunset tying in with age. But when those crow lines merge, if you can still see the color, age is never old. Great love poem . A relief from reading the saccharine-sweet , typical love poem.

I love the form taken to write this entry.. I'm especially drawn to this write probably because of my age, and I appreciate the writers emotions so much, very well written. I have a feeling I may know who wrote it.. how exciting, can't wait to find out!

read something about last meeting places on the beach of a tumid river. The last part of your free verse calls that to
mind...excellent post...

Love occurs at any age. Some may think older people have fallen out of that, but your poem of enamored lips shows passion. Beautifully written. Les

I am seventy-one and enjoyed your love poem and focus on a bit of "seduction". Your "scraps of sun" and "farthest shore" are evocative phrases. Cheers- Joan

I thought this was lovely! I've read several reviewers who seemed perplexed by your "sun's scraps wrap us" line... but I immediately felt a warmth about those words, and envisioned a couple walking hand-in-hand along a beach, or perhaps sitting side-by-side, wrapped in each others arms on the shore, as the last rays of a beautiful sunset sparked romance for the coming evening. Ah... romance!

Anyway, I find this beautifully passionate and filled with lovely imagery!

Good luck with this in the contest!

I think the last two lines were really interesting but I didn't understand "As long as sun's scraps wrap us." All I can say is, I'm so happy being single:)
