I loved reading this, Dawn, and I'm so glad I took the time and so pleased I found it. Your lines are delightful I love that metre you used. Is this book going to be published soon? It sounds lovely, Giddy

What a fabulous review, Giddy - thank you! Yes, I have just finished releasing another one ("Jaded Hearts") on Kindle, and the print copy is coming in a few days so once that is done, I will be assembling the poems for this one. It should be out early this month! (fingers crossed - I have a bad cold right now - lol - as if there are good ones!)

Oh Linda, you have no idea how much your remarks please and thrill me. We have our favorites, and though I have thousands to choose from (and love many - without meaning to brag), this one is my all-time favorite, I think... So you can imagine how I feel reading your lovely review! Thank you!

Hi Dawn, the same way it made me feel when I read it...I think this is one of your best...I am so glad they make you happy...you are always so welcome...love Linda xxoo
Comment from Joan E.
You are a trooper to resubmit your poem--I admire your persistence. A tour de force of hyperbole with wonderful rhythm and rhyme, your quatrains also feature the effective "vine" metaphor and enjambment. Big cheers- Joan

Don't you hate when that happens, Dawn? You get a beautiful entry in the wrong contest?
Anyway a lovely poem with great imagery about that one you just can't live without.
Great job and many thanks for sharing.

Well Dawn this is a beautiful poem although very sad. Great rhyming along with word flow like a stream in springtime. A message of heart ache but yet words that keep the readers mind controlled. God bless you friend.

Oh George, thank you very much! I have to admit, it's a new favorite of mine, so I am thrilled that you liked it so much too.
Comment from LIJ Red
Don't look much like an acrostic, but, mercy, that's the most lovestruck thing I have read lately. A poem and especially a Valentine poem requires such exaggerated mush, so this firmly rhyming poem lives up to it's name. Excellent ;post.

LOL - it does, doesn't it? LOL. Sorry to be so long responding. Thank you for your fun review and generous rating. That's me though - mushy. HAhahaha! (On the other hand, I do 'scary' well too - HAHAHAHAHA! For example - (duh) - I didn't read the darn contest requirements before writing this, so now it's withdrawn, and an acrostic replaces it. SCARY assumption that the requirements would be as other years. *grin*)

Oh Dawn,
if only I could write one poem like this a year I would be happy. Your imagery and turn of phrase throughout is breath taking. I was so taken with this I read it several times and each time it got better. I have just reviewed your other posting and the contrast is so far from each other. Is there no end to your talents.
Well done

Good morning again, Dawn: Oh how I love, Norah Jones. it was great to hear her voice again. Dolly's Poems just post a poem about the nightingale bird. What a beautiful song bird. I was just discussing with her about the numerous poems and songs that are written about the nightingale. Yet I had not seen one until this morning with her photo and now yours.
My goodness, you do write such marvelous love poetry. You are just such an awesome Poet. Your words are so lovely in this poem and many of your others. It is so well-written. I wonder sometimes if I will ever write like this. We shall see in time.

Ummmmm well, my comments for this poem are already recorded under the other one! I guess I could cut & paste, but that seems silly. Sorry I can't give you a six for it again, as I haven't got any lol - but the other one has it anyway.
It's still just as good as it was before ;-)
