Excellent

What a nice Valentines poem with a cute photo to boot! I like that you have a husband of thirty years - that makes you super special. It is cool when you have someone that you can trust to love like that. I am very jealous of that relationship for sure! Happy Valentines to both of you and I love this acrostic! Beautiful. Cheers, Fonda

Excellent

well, hallelujah for that! and thank goodness.
I bet you two have learned how to argue civilly about important issues. I don't see how you could just not talk about them. But maybe you don't. At any rate, I think you both should get a compatibility award! Isn't love funny?
Cute poem.
Congratulations on your win!

A charming Valentine's Day Poem that includes all the cleverness and grace that one would want. Needless to say, the rhyme and meter were spot on. Congratulations on your accomplishment.

This is a well done acrostic and well worth the win. Congratulations.
This proves opposites do attract and can make love last. It does seem Cupid does have a sense of humor sometimes.

Keep writing

Joan

Excellent little acrostic, and I can certainly relate to the theme as well. My husband and I are so different, I wonder sometimes why we love each other, but we sure do. This is clever and smart and cute and deserved to win this contest. Congratulations! MM

This should have won for the title alone.
In my humble opinion, Cupid and Stevie Wonder have a lot in common.
But, hey, sometimes a blind squirrel finds a love nut.
Congrats--for the win, and for the other.

Peace, Lee

Or a nutty love - LOL! ;) ;) Sounds like you happen to have the same 'non-romantic' approach to these silly holidays [Hallmark or chocolate industry created - I'm convinced!] as I do, Lee! ;) ;) And, TBH, I never really was a big fan of Stevie Wonder....was more of a heavy metal kinda girl (shhhhh....I still am!). :) :) Thanx for the review, sir -- you take care out there and have a wonderful week! ;) ;) Yvette

Congratulations on the win! Fun read and nicely done. Although I am mainly a story writer (working on a screenplay atm), I enjoy dabbling in poetry to which you are an inspiration. :)
