That's a handsomely creepy piece... full of pipe smoke and shadows and things that go bump. The combination of the stately formal rhythm and rhyme and the dialect language is highly effective.

Comment from Janice Canerdy
This skillfully-written poem makes excellent use of specific details
to recount a dark story of love, love lost, adultery, deceit, and resulting
death. What goes around comes around.

You did a terrific job with this writing challenge. I was engrossed from beginning to end.
In addition, the rhythm was maintained throughout and I loved your choice of rhyming words. Hugs, Lou

A bit of mystery, horror and romance and the pain of unfaithful love all rolled into one well written story poem. Dean would have loved your picture, too.

Glad you enjoyed this poem. Appreciate the review. Thought the picture went well with the poem so used it.
Comment from Michele Harber
This is a very well-done poem, telling a full story, creating a dark mood, dripping with emotion, and allowing the reader to fully see the images you describe. Saving the only description of the two characters ("his icy blue eyes," "her raven hair") for the end, after their fates have been sealed, adds true pathos to the story.

Glad you enjoyed this story in a poem. Wasn't sure how it would go over, but it seemed to be welcomed well.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written story in a poem about the new-wed couple that seem to find their death on their wedding night and they are together forever in the swamp where they will be eternally.
