This is quite a beautiful poem. It sounds like 30 wonderful years. I like the way the poem is written with the rhyme, and talks of everlasting love. Thank you for sharing.

What a sweet and simple love poem. You chose a great picture to go along with it too. Your rhyme scheme worked well and added to the flow of the piece. Good luck in the contest!

Cute and snappy love poem that artfully avoids all the land mine words. Good job. I celebrated my 31st anniversary this year. Perhaps I should write my wife a poem?

This is very sweet and I really do like the eternal love theme of the poem.
Okay, since you have a period on the last sentence of each stanza, I think you either should remove them both, or make all the lines complete. Also, good luck in the contest. This is very nice.
