Very well written, beautiful poem. My only critique would be the use of "lust" in the last line. It just doesn't seem to fit with the theme of pure, first love. Just a thought. I only want to help. Thanks for sharing and good luck!

One who has experienced a first night remembers the innocence alluded to in this poem but the purity, passion, and virtue, don't seem to blend with lust, so-called intimacy, or ambition; opposite values and virtues struggled for by many a saint.

I didn't see any grammatical or spelling errors.

Yes, there is nothing quite like new love. It is heavy with the sense of lust and that only enhances the feelings of love. They work hand and hand to make the time unforgettable. Great work.

This is so beautifully written that I had to read it again. I found this poem to be written with such passion and romance. "Our bodies charged from endless tease" is perfect to describe their first love encounter together after marriage which is so rare these days. Good luck in this contest. I enjoyed reading this and thank you for sharing.

Great Free verse poem I loved it and I can see why you have been recognized thanks for the poem and don't ever stop thanks again and happy writing

This silent night as moonlight sheds, its last rays for the dawn,
A ring of gold lay on your hand, with passion, your virtue, so pure,
Your fragrance lingers upon my lips, from kisses all so true,
Our bodies charged from endless tease, this first night love with you,
How sublime your body yearned for endless love, the awe of all submission,
Whisper of love so entangled the night, reflect our soul's condition,
This intimacy of night's first love, so pure with no ambition,
What more to want, but lusts first love or memories of first night.

This free verse poetry " The Fragrance of First Night" is truly a nicely composed and nicely presented poem with wonderful words describing the fragrance of kisses, love, lust, passion, intimacy etc of the night's first love and the memories of it. I enjoyed reading it.

This is a beautiful write which evokes those feelings of anticipation when the world was a little more innocent than it is now. I like the feel of it and the softness of the words.

The poem overall flows well and reads nicely out loud. I stumble a bit on the second line; I wonder if you could consolidate some of those thoughts into a more fluid line.
Additionally, I have a few more observations for your consideration, as it is a contest entry:
-I don't think you need the coma between sheds and its in line 1.
- Line 2, "lay(s) on your hand"
- Line 3, Don't think you need the coma between lips and from.
- You use the word "endless" in close proximity twice, in lines 4 and 5. I would change one of them (prob line 5 - maybe passion's).
- Line 6, I would prefer Whisper(s) (plural).

I think the rest is all great.

Well done and good luck in the contest!!

Lena
