Congratulations on your win with this gentle poem of married love.

What have we for guidance and comfort in the dark confusion of the world but the bright rays of Love's lantern, glowing in the night?

May your beloved wife rest in peace. Love endures.

Blessings, Julia

A beautiful and poignant rendering, Willie.
I am sorry for your loss.
My husband and I will be married 40 years this month. We share the same kind of tenderness you express in your well-crafted verse.
Thank you for sharing!

Dear Mystery Poet,

This is a sweet and precious poem, but it does not meet the contest requirements. Lines 12 and 16 do not rhyme. I would suggest a quick edit?? Good luck!

Okay - I went back and looked at the other entries - I'm just confused about the requirements. Never mind. Good luck anyway!!

This work has reached the exceptional level

There is nothing that compares with true love and truly she has been successful in conveying that knowledge and her feelings for her own true love. A blessed gift of love left for you to cherish always. Good luck.

You woke up, visualized your wife glanced at you sleeping beside you, you shared love speechless, again you slept peacefully; well said, well done. Write to inspire, change -- DR ALCREATOR

The Speaker describes a heart full of love as he sees his sleeping wife. I like how your camera records his gentle actions and her response. Truly a love poem anyone who's been in a long-term relationship can relate to.
