This is wonderful and beautiful testimony to love and marriage as God intended for His people. Makes me want to be a better husband to my faithful wife of 65 years! Thank you for writing this and I trust God will use your words to encourage being a partner in such love as this.
God bless you, Dennis

How beautiful is this work! I loved reading it. Your words are so honest and inspiring. I am lucky enough to identify with your sentiments. Every day we celebrate how blessed we are to have this life together--I am 73 and my husband is 82. Your work flows well--and I envy your able use of rhyme.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
That was a lovely poem, Janet, taking us on a journey through life's day. Your memories of Corwall is spot on, it never, ever changes. We go there at least three times a year, and my time-travel trilogy was based there for obvious reasons. You can go back in time without actually going back in time!! Lol. I enjoyed your poem, and the ending of how, by the grace of God, your marriage has been blessed with a long and loving life together. Well done and good luck in the contest. :) Sandra xx

Thanks you Sandra for this encouraging review. Oh I do wish I could visit Cornwall again. Maybe someday when travel is less problematic. I appreciate your thoughtful and kind comments.

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
A sweet poem. Your note added to the love expressed in the poem. I like the way you have coordinated the colors. The background of the poem matches the sky, and the gray border matches the lettering. That's very appealing. The rhyme scheme is also consistent throughout. Good luck in the contest. Well-done!

Comment from K. Lang-Slattery
This is a beautiful love poem, not only to your partner in life, but also to the natural world. In general your rhyme and meter are perfect, though I lost the flow a bit in the last two lines of stanza four.

Comment from RainbewLatte
What a beauty this is. To begin, I feel that being able to tell such a story through poetry is already a challenge. Followed by the use of rhyme, flow, and rhythm is something I find myself only dreaming of and here, is it executed so excellently. Seeing the recognition this has received, I can only say that it is well deserved. Well done. Best of luck to you and all the best. Have the best day ever. Much love. And thanks for sharing.

Comment from LisaMay
This was a pleasure to read for several reasons - it is well written and flows nicely, using appealing imagery; it reminded me of my own memories of Cornwall; you set the scene in the first 3 stanzas then the last 3 covered your relationship using weather - it pleased me to know of your enduring love.
