Excellent

I liked the general idea of this but I felt the overall effect was spoiled by the repetition of 'lucky'. There is likely (hint) to be another 'L' word you could use to avoid that. Repetition can be a good device when it has a clear purpose. Your repetition of 'love' and its derivatives is a good example of this as it reflects the poem's title and theme.

Excellent

Excellent Pleiades form here, one of my favorite poetic forms. You capture in your words how meaningful love is and how grateful you are to those who love you. "Lucky to have had many great teachers who love to teach" is a wonderful line that impacts the reader.

Wow! In no way did I expect a review like yours. Life presents many paths...some we take and some we ignore. I took the path leading to Fan Story, which I have to admit has been one of the most rewarding to my writing process. I never wrote a single poem, and now I receive such warm praise as yours.
Thank you very much. I hope we connect after this contest is over.
