Many kudos on winning the Romance Contest. I admired your use of the acrostic form plus your presentation and image to accentuate it. I enjoyed your rhymes and wordplay with "rain" followed by "weather". Cheers- Joan

Lovely acrostic poem to pay tribute to a once in a lifetime love. You put together thoughts and used words to perfectly describe "the one". Well done.

Nothing compares to two people meeting and instantly feeling that vibrant knowledge that clicks into a stunning rapport. Where else would you feel so alive and full of anticipation. The poem is lovely depicting the best of love and the picture enhances it so well.

Finding your soul mate can take a long or short search, but you always know when you find them! This is a romantic acrostic, well rhymed and a pleasure to read, love Dolly x

This provides an entertaining read {thumbs up}.

I particularly liked the line:
"Only our love can stop the rain, there's nothing we can't weather"
It's a great metaphor, so indicative of the optimism of romantic love {smiles}.

Best of luck with this when the voting booth opens {smiles}.

You have captured the exhilaration of finding a new love and describing the promise of such a find, and all within the acrostic title as well. Nicely done. In your second to last line I felt you might have diluted the strength of rest of your poem by assigning the power to "stop the rain" to him, only, rather than the unity of the two of you together "weathering" whatever might come, but, again, your enthusiasm carries the momentum. You have done a great job.

    Thank you for your advice. I happen to agree with it, and have changed that line. Maybe you'll read it again and change your assessment of it. Either way, thank you for helping me improve my writing skills :)

Awesome, dear poet. I love acrostics where each line ends in a rhyme (and makes sense!). This is a well-crafted and beautiful poem on romance and love, and I certainly enjoyed reading it.
Very best wishes in the contest!
