Great rhyme and meter in your brief love poem to your late wife. You don't actually say if you wrote it before or after her death and that context might well make a difference as to how a reader interprets it, especially the final line.

Great job. Good luck in the contest.

Your poem is so lovely and moving--a sincere expression of love that has endured far beyond the loss of your wife. Such beautiful, descriptive thoughts you have!

This was absolutely priceless. It was very upbeat and innocent. The devotion you have for her was quite evident in this poem. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Gretchen

This poem, Sit on a Cloud, sees the world in a series of bigger than life engagements which, in their hyperbole, emphasize the down to earth desire to be with another. Understood.

A nice poem. You have adroitly walked the line and avoided smultz while using poetic words. The flow is good. The rhymes are unforced. The images are clear.

Thanks for a good read.

What a touching devotional.
Some losses leave a void that can never be filled. We do have those memories, I play mine like old movies and sometimes they are a comfort.
I like to think that we will be rejoined and do all the things together that you wrote in your poem.

This is beautiful and uplifting. I'm sorry you lost your wife, but I truly believe we will be reunited with those we love, in heaven. I know you will do all of those things together. Best if luck in the contest.

What a wonderful testament to bless your wife with. I too, feel this way about my wife, I only wish I would have thought of the words to say it in such a clear manner as you did.

Very nice, Great rhyming, clearly written and easily understood, and full of emotion for that one special person in your life, your wife. Bravo!!!

Good job

Love knows no bounds and can last through life and death for any who hold deep love in their heart.

A delightful poem with great end rhyming and some nice alliteration. Ah, we all have dreams and hunger to fulfill them, but there's nothing so comforting as sitting with your partner at the end of the day or going for a walk hand in hand. I enjoyed it very much...thanks for sharing such a loving tribute to your wife.
