Comment from Raffaelina Lowcock
True love is the axle that the world spins on; without it, we would not have the six billion people that populate our Earth. But aside from that, there is nothing that compares to the bliss experienced between two lovers. I wonder if there will ever be an artist that can portray "bliss."

Comment from dragonpoet
Wow. That's a whirlwind romance. They met in Spring and married in Fall. Did they even know each other. Or did they both just know it was perfect to why wait.
Keep writing

Thank you, Joan. I would have to look at it. LOL I think I posted this particular poem over ten years ago.

You're welcome. You must of reposted it because I don't think I'd have the patience to look back ten years.

Sorry. I was wrong it wasn't that long ago, Joan. :) Bob

The budding and poking of nature parallel the clumsiness that sometimes characterises young love. Urgency upsets the intended smoothness that later seasons hold.

Thanks so much, Tony. That post has been up for three hyears though? I don't know why it is still coming up as my most recent post. I am posting chapters for my book only and have for the past year. LOL.. I appreciate your time though. Bob
Comment from Mark Valentine
Hemingway-seque in its brevity and sparse sentences. It's hard to get a story arc laid out in 55 words, but by using the seasons as a backdrop, you allow the reader to fill in some of the progression. The last sentence is classic.

Hi, Mark. This post is over four years old. LOL...My new posts are in my portfolio under the book. Falling up The Stairs. the last chapter i posted (last week) is titled "Return to State Street" I have no idea why it isn't showing as my newest post. I think it is because it is a revived post. I have been posting new chapters every week for a year. LOL. thanks for trying though. Bob

As I said I would, I have been going through your portfolio! This work is one of my favorites! It is so beautiful. It is vague enough that it lets the reader's imagination play, but it is so superb in its storytelling. Bravo.

I don't remember this contest.... When the right person comes around, there is no denying that they should be a couple....Excellent work.

Comment from songbyrd
This is very well written and not only met the required criteria, but also told a story about falling in love. From spring till autumn, from being single to being pronounced husband and wife. Great writing!

So much for Brad's resolve. He succumbed to love's hue. Love demands love's exploration. A cherished feeling, that of a confident heart. I too was certain about my devotion to bachelorhood. Sometimes love penetrates the emotion cocoon. Good for them both.

This is so deserving of six stars, and I wish I had one to bestow! My heart skipped a beat - this is delightful in its hopefulness!

Hi, PF.. Thanks so much for your comments on this poem. I see you have picked out poetry and short items to review, and I am sincerely grateful for that. However, I do hope you read prose also, as that is my forte and most of my postings for review are for my book "Fatal Beauty" Are you not a fan of crime/mystery? Bob
-
Hi Bob, I haven't intentionally picked out anything but for the sake of a title jumping out at me and peaking my interest - I will most certainly continue to browse through your portfolio and read "Fatal Beauty" -

:) I am so glad...thanks so much. You will find on here that many people will read your poetry...but will not go near our prose.?? Thanks again. Bob
