This is the most beautiful expression of love - the contrast between perception and reality (from your point of view)... although, who is to say which is perceived and which is real? Lovely in every word, mikey!

Wishing you well in this contest!

Oh me oh my. My romantic side is busting out again. What a delightful poem. What an evocative love story. Everybody should have the chance, just once, to play in your world. Thank you for sharing this.

This one makes me wonder...how does Hubby see me? Does he know there is nothing I wouldn't do for him? The other, the one who has our all, what a wonderful image Mike,
thanks for sharing,

    If I know it, I am more than sure he does. You only laugh hysterically at the one you love. Hahaha!! seriously though, it is quite clearly evident in your writing. mikey

Really like your font duel of perspectives. I know I have always questioned what others see in me, a hero but really a joker, and your self-effacing humility shines through. If needed, that little stone skipping boy will rise up and slay the beasts. This is such a tender write with great rhythm and alliteration throughout.

    Awesome review. Glad you liked the color thing. Thought it would be a lot easier to read with so many words and all. So happy that I put some time in on this. Appreciate all the stars and great compliments. Thank you very much, mikey

What a beautiful love poem. Creative use of the contrasting colors to highlight the stardust hero that she sees in him verses the lucky little boy he considers himself to be to receive such admiration. Her knight, her champion--it is what the little boy transforms into because she believes, because she loves him.

A beautifully written free form verse. It gives the reader the feeling of high spirits and out-worldliness, as if in a fantasy. The boy and girl are deeply in love with each other and would even appear silly to capture the attention of their beloved. A truly lovely poem with a wonderful carefree feel to it. I love it.

I think your poem displays the moment that two people instantly have a connection. Love takes over, they get lost in lust and passion. it's hard to come out of this emotionally state.
