this was a nice, romantic poem, but for my taste you used a word "love" way too many times. it's a poem, it should show a beauty of a language (at least I ddin't have a feeling you're going for something experimental with this piece) - consider rewording this poem, avoid using the word 'love' and come up with original images and descriptions. I loved the ambiance you created here, the beginning of the poem was super, only then the repetition spoiled it a little.
also I was once told to avoid a word 'soul' that it's a cliche.

A lovely write, my friend...some of your commas need adjusting yet I would not destroy this lovey work for the want of bagatelle.
Good luck with the contest.
Best wishes,

No difficulties with seeing how this has become an 'All Time Best'. Lovely imagery along with thought and emotion provoking words underneath a beautiful picture. What is there not to enjoy about this, well done.

Comment from tfawcus
I particularly liked the line 'Our bodies charged from endless tease, this first night love with you' and found the whole poem fresh and mildly erotic. You need an apostrophe in 'lusts (lust's) first love' and I would perhaps consider the repetition of 'first love' three times in the poem, twice in two lines. In all other respects I enjoyed it.

Comment from Lulube
I really like this poem, it's very sensuously romantic. Good imagery and then I get confused again over this Free Verse style. I thought that there was no rhyming in free verse? some members tell me no, some say yes.\
good luck in the contest.

Comment from Matoshka
How tender and gentle this night of love is. To languish in the moment of remembering brings this night of love alive each time it is remembered. So very romantic. Excellent presentation and vivid thoughts. Blessings and good luck in the contest.

Comment from JeffreyVPerry
A very warm and sensitive view of a first love encounter that reminds me so much of my younger years and any meeting with a special woman that first time, although yours speaks of maybe a true wedding night. The first you always remember whether good or bad, whether right or wrong, and whether memorable or one you wish to forget. But you capture the essence of those experiences here.
