First of all Congratulations on 50 years! The author's words are strong,
heartfelt, beautiful, and creative. I admire this gift and believe it is
a beautiful blessing. The first two lines flow and connect well. The last
lines says it all! The artwork is perfect and compliments these words.

This is a well written poem. Fifty years is a gift. Your poem reads and flows well. Your 5-7-5 syllable count meets the requirements for this writing. Nice poem.

Excellent entry for the 5-7-5 Romance writing prompt contest. Good syllables count and connection between lines. Beautiful presentation. It's very romantic and special about your husband. Good luck in the contest.

This is a beautifully written written 5-7-5 poem. Nice overall presentation. It's a true blessing to have a love that lasts 50 years and beyond. My parents are both deceased but had 62 wonderful years together.

The romantic in me hopes this brief poem is based in reality. If so, absolute congratulations on 50 years. You truly should publish advise - that is no small feat! Lovely entry for the 5-7-5 romance poem, with excellent paired imagery. Thank you for sharing.

These words could have been mine--with some added years. A love that lasts is the very best kind! I liked the haiku and the picture you chose to accompany it.

It does happen. I was married for 48 years. My husband passed away in November 2017. We fought, and we loved. We hung on together through thick and thin. We were different as day and night, however, we rode the waves. Thank you for this awesome story.

    Thank you! I believe it to be a Blessing from our creator, cuz left to us, we may have ended it many times, as love isn't always enough! But forgiveness is the key! Thank you my friend for the kind review!

    Carolyn, I saved your review until last to tell you once again how Sorry I am that you lost your husband of 48 years. Mu husband & I will actually be married 48 next month, but we dates for two years prior to that; therefore I count 50 years loving him! I can't imagine how hard that would be and I don't take time together for granted. You are such a loving caring soul & I pray that God has given you peace since 2017! God be with you, my friend!
    And thank you for the kind review!

I think you told a complete story with a heartfelt sentiment in exactly 17 syllables. Well done! You are truly blessed to have met and lived a lifetime with the love of your life.

'A Fifty Year Love Story ' , is short, succinct and delightfully heart-warming. With a minimum of words this talented poet has told it as it is. Good luck with the contest. Please let me know how you get on?
