James, hello my friend. I waited until today to send this because I had no sixes left until today. This is well deserved.

I enjoyed this love poem through and through. It is filled with sincere emotions and feelings you have for your better half. In particularly like the first line, "you cause lightening strikes on my heart"!

Well done and best of luck in the contest... John

This piece meets the criteria of the Nonet poem as the syllable count descends from nine syllables to one. Good alliteration with forbidden/fruit...so/sweet...glaze/go. Good eye catching photo followed by a clear message.

A brilliant nonet poem here about love, lust and forbidden fruit! The choices of imagery and the clever interplay from 9 syllables to 1 is excellent. Best wishes and good luck, Hatter :)

Wow! Beautiful artwork and presentation to this sensual, sweet and romantic nonet. I think you had me a "lightening strikes". Well done and good luck in the contest.

This is a very strong romantic poem for the contest. Love is a wonderful thing, if you're one of the lucky ones that find true love. Good luck. Bill

A beautiful love nonet, and I like the words and phrases you chose to describe this feeling the beloved stirs in you. A perfect picture to accompany your words.

I stumbled ever so slightly on this line:

You cause lightning strikes inside my heart

It doesn't sound right. I think, maybe you meant:

You cause lightning to strike inside my heart

Good luck in the contest, love, Y.

    Hi Yeltel,
    thanks for your wonderful review and well wishes, it is appreciated.

    Unfortunately the word count wouldn't allow to have your suggestion, as it did sound good... the nonet has only nine syllables in its first line... yours has ten... but thanks anyway... it is the thought that counts... smile))))))

    then maybe:

    "You cause lightning strike inside my heart"

    (you have: "you cause lightning strikes inside my heart")

Yes 'forbidden fruit', do we dare, do we care, enough to accept the consequences of our actions? If I get the message correct, someone is suggesting or hoping for the a 'forbidden fruit' encounter to occur. If we do not have such questions in our lives, are we truly alive? Thank you for a beautiful, contemplative poem.

The scent of love is in the air. The flowers seem to bring it on. I feel the beauty of spring fever when I read this and I feel the love.
