    Thank you very much, Maltese Falcon, I am so pleased you enjoyed it. The illustration came from Corrina's Creations, she illustrated my first book, she is so clever. :) Sandra

Hello Sandramitchell,
Marvelous piece of Children Poetry beautifully depicting the journey of Monty and Molly's successful love!
Wording is simple, impressive and perfectly matching the theme.
Spontaneous and enchanting flow from the beginning to the end.
Lovely rhyming scheme with lively imagery and pictorial quality.
The most striking lines are:
"2nd stanza + So Monty and Molly got married that day,
and two little babies were soon on their way."
The picture is also worth appreciating, for it enhances the beauty of poem.
Superb!

    What a really lovely review of my poem, I am so pleased you enjoyed it. The 6 stars are an added bonus, thank you! Corrina's Creations, is the illustrator, she is a fantastic artist. I found her on FanArt, and was able to get her to illustrate my first, Timmy and Tommy book. I just saw this one on her Facebook page and wrote the poem underneath it, then she e-mailed me saying I could have it!

I love this poem. Love it from the start up to the end. With the Valentine picture, Monty holding a flower, while Moly looking closely at him, it is so illustrative of sincere love for each other. It is a 5-stanza poem that had all the beauty of rhythm and rhyme. So beautiful indeed that when you read it aloud you notice and feel the measured stress of rhythm and rhyme. My sincere congratulations. Dom

    What an amazing review, thank you so much, Dom. I get a lot of pleasure out of writing about Timmy and Tommy Mouse, and more so when readers enjoy it too. Thank you also for the incredible 6 stars, you are very kind. :) Sandra

What an enjoyable poem, Sandra. It's so nice to read the beginning of your tales. One thing to check on ... I think sunflower is one word.

    ooops! Didn't notice that, thank you, Karen. I am so pleased you like this one, came out by accident because of Corrina, she did the illustration for her fans to use for Valentines Day, but I saw a much better use for it! LOL, she gave the illustration to me as a gift when she read what I had put. :) Sandra xxx

What a terrific poem to read to children.

Your rhyming is great and the story is adorable. I do hope you are giving this to a child/children in your family...

Very nice.

    Thank you so much, AT, for your generous review. My grandchildren are always checking and giving my Timmy and Tommy stories their advice as to whether they are good or not. 5 & 6 year olds are quite ruthless in what they say, LOL. xsx Sandra

    You are a love, Dawn, I had to get my head together again. My mind was just too full of my dear mum, now she has gone, I thought I needed something happy to write about. I will always be sad when I think of mum, but luckily these little fellows help a lot. :) Thank you for your lovely words, my friend. xsx Sandra
