Ohh wow Luanne, one of the most beautiful pieces I have read in quite some time. This was truly impressive . I loved the vocabulary for one. Secondly a wonderful quote to base a poem off of , and definatly the truth. We can give love but should also be accepting of it as well, if we dont let love in we could be msising out on so much . Theres no words to describe this powerful, beautiful write that you have penned for us. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

Luanne
Again you have penned a gem. This is breathtaking.

Lastly Dearest !
To love - hand in hand
beneath a blanket of cloudy skies
and a half - filled cup of sunshine.
And - together- unfold
the beauty ...
of the rainbow.

The ending is so beautiful. Your words just capture the heart of the reader.
Excellent!
*hugs

^Lastly Dearest !
To love - hand in hand
beneath a blanket of cloudy skies
and a half - filled cup of sunshine.
And - together- unfold
the beauty ...
of the rainbow.^

I love the half filled cup of sunshine. Seems hopeful insted of looking at it half empty. Great job LU!

This was the first poem I read today, and honestly I feel fulfilled! This was the absolute greatest poem I have ever read!

Lu, this is such an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G write!!!
The first stanza was enough to catch all of my attention already!

Dearest, how I yearn
to exist within the unwrapped
folds of your heart.
Explore every crevice and feel -
every fragile thought that bleeds.
^ ^ ^

Lu, if this were any good it would have a 5/5 and a front page win.. wait.. this must be pretty good then XD

I loved it, very good transitions and pauses.. it flows so well, like a rainbow. I don't know how I missed this contest, looks like it was fun...

"Double rainbow all the way across the sky.." - If you don't know what that is then google it, it will make your day.. but make sure you get the original video, not the song haha

Beauty of the Rainbow

Dearest, how I yearn
to exist within the unwrapped
folds of your heart.

>>>AWw a veryyyy very romantic stanza..
I loved the word exist within the unwrapped
folds..u could have said in ur heart..easier for u..but
it would be not one bit amazing..as much as the way
u worded it.. unique!

Explore every crevice and feel -
every fragile thought that bleeds.
Ride with you - together-
through tumultuous waves of memories
that immerse your spirit
in salty waters.
^this stanza is powerful, meaningful
and romantic.
I love the usage of each vocab.

Oh how I ache for the passionate kiss
of your unspoken words.
To breathe ..
the breath of your breath.
To cry ...
the tears of your tears.
>>the repetition is too emotional..too possesive
and really really passionate..I can't remember
I have felt emotions in any piece b4, as much
as in this one!

Lastly Dearest !
To love - hand in hand ( SWEET)
beneath a blanket of cloudy skies
and a half - filled cup of sunshine.( AWWWW i love i love this line..reminds me of my poem..and of myself sure:P )..cup filled with
And - together- unfold
