well, my goodness! that's the prettiest "cold feet"account I have ever read. Not to mention, lyrical, intelligent, and poetic. I hope the stars don't "quickly, quickly burn!"
Very nice sonnet, beautifully worded.

    You're welcome. I love Ashville! Love N.C. Used to go to Camp up/over there many years ago when I lived in GA.

    If you are ever in Asheville, let me know, we could get together somewhere - Asheville is a delightful town.

    Yes, it is. That would be fun. thanks. No plans now, but who knows?
    Do you ever get to San Antonio? :)

    I've never been to Texas but it's on my list to do some Spring. I've seen beautiful pictures of fields of bluebells.

    yes - bluebonnets - mostly in the hill country north of San Antonio - the big fields of them, but they grow along the roadside certain places here in town,too. Also our Riverwalk is pretty with shops and restaurants.

    That's right - bluebonnets. My sister-in-law is from Plainview and my daughter gets to Austin and Houston with her job. One of these days, I'll make it too.

Just lovely! Your celestial imagery is well thought out and harkins back to the ultimate star-crossed lovers - only to be surprised at the end. Nicely done!

This speaks how a falling star can make poet's wish come true and in course of growing relationship at the end its value and essence embraces a true love bond in a surprise; I liked.

Dear Mystery Writer,

This was splendid! I really do not like sonnets as a rule - but this one read so easily and so down-to-earth that the reading was a pleasure! I wish you the best of luck in the contest!

Lovely, lovely sonnet, perfect iambic pentameter except in one small space that is very easily fixed: you use cannot as one word. As one word, the stress is trochaic - (CANnot). However, if it is two words, it becomes iambic (can NOT.) So, pop a space in and all will be exactly perfect. Excellent work - loved the happy, somewhat surprising ending!!!
Regards,
Hayley :)
