This is quite beautiful, as is your accompanying image. You have incorporated the alliteration and rhyming very smoothly and well. Best wishes for your entry in the contest.

Thanks for your comments. I changed 'blushing' to 'beaming'. 'Blushing bride' was too predictable - a cliche.
Comment from Janice Canerdy
Your poem is excellent in every respect. First of all, it meets all of the guidelines. It is also vividly descriptive of a joyous memorable day as two are joined in marriage.

Thanks for your lovely comments.
Comment from Jesse James Doty
Well, the alliteration is there yet the flow is not so smooth. All cares shed is a bit ragged but the intent is surely there. I 'get' where you are coming from so I am saddened by the lack of reviews for this piece. I suppose it seems a bit unlike you to post something like this. Blushing brides and all that jazz!
Best wishes for the contest, my friend!

I found the 7-syllable requirement a bit hard to get into a rhythm with.
I changed 'blushing bride' to 'beaming bride' so it wasn't such a predictable cliche.

Nicely done, I enjoyed reading this poem. I like the way you start with fleecy fluff- it's a lovely image. Thanks for sharing this piece and have a really great day

Nicely done. Great job of fitting the alliterations to a cute story with a nice flow. To be young and in love again. The freshness of new love is invigorating.

Thank you for sharing this poem. The picture is beautiful.
That would be a great wedding to attend under clear skies. On top of a mountain. Good luck. Have a great weekend.

You did a good job with the prompt. You supplied the requisite rhymes, syllables, and alliteration. The poem itself was lovely, with the wedding of two people in love (I hope). Thank you for sharing this here. Best wishes.

I didn't expect to read one of these about a wedding, but it worked well. Were the clouds on the day supposed to symbolise anything? Maybe the fact they cleared afterwards meant you see one another more clearly when you've been married awhile and know them better?
