This is a very cute and humorous love poem you have penned for the writing prompt contest. You used very good descriptive and cute words. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

This work has reached the exceptional level

Structurally it falls short for me but the humor within has me awarding you SIX stars for having me laugh with your last two lines... Ask only "does he love me?" until there are no more, Then I know the answer is the one I've waited for

    Tom you are so very sweet. This was a hard one to keep the rhythm with but if I got it started right, I could read it easily. Thank you for such kind words and I appreciate your fun comments. Thanks again my friend!

Haha, this was lots of fun :-). It reminds me of how many people approach life - skewing the odds so they get the answers they want to justify themselves. I very much enjoyed the read.

Nice entry in the contest. I hope you have had better luck in life than you had in your poem. When you find your daisy, count the petals before you start the jingle.

    Paul, I love your humor as well. Yes, being married for 48 years, I haven't done the love me, love me not thing since about 12 years old. Thanks for the very kind review and fun comments my friend!

I love what you did with the prompt, very clever and creative. The presentation is well realized and appropriate for the topic, which is relatable to all. I enjoyed the whimsical tone you injected into your verse. The rhymes work well without force and create a bouncy tempo.Thanks for sharing.

Hello author, very good, very cute. Glad that you kept looking for a better man. I especially liked:

Ask only "does he love me?" until there are no more
Then I know the answer is the one I've waited for
(Author, we only deserve to be with people who treat us like we're #1 ...
'cause they love us. All the other Men (or women) can go and pick their own flowers and remain alone. Lol.)

A fun poem from a time when life was as carefree as a daisy. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck. Keep the blue waters flowing.

I LOVE this one! It is original and clever! Pull off the (he loves me) petals only so you will know the answer. I wish you much success with the contest. Best, JohnC

This is an excellent poem for the writing prompt. I think you found a way to come out ahead in the daisy pull game. This was a fun read with a good rhyming scheme.

i like this smarmy, sarcastic, witty take on the prompt. I like the lines

pulled apart a dandelion, to see if it would work
If I should fall for him, so I hope he's not a jerk

I've known him just a couple days, but think that this will help
If he is not what he should be, I'll report the guy to Yelp

the best.

This is an excellent entry in this contest. I remember the days when men were the hunters, and some women were the prey, but most girls could handle themselves and good on them, I had two daughters so I was protective of them. This is beautifully written my friend, great couplet rhyming, good luck, blessings Roy

    Awe, thank you Roy! Sometimes it feels good to use a little humor, but not lose sight of the importance of being treated with respect. I love how you taught your daughters to demand that as well. Thank you so much my friend for your very lovely review and kind words.
