Omg!

Chelsey, this is amazing.
I feel like crying because it's just so beautyfull.
I can feel the love so much love in this piece. Somehow you were able to use my idea from my sad love poem into a blooming love poem of your own and it shows me that there is so much love in this piece. I don't want to sound cheesy but I can't help it. Lol I so hope your boyfriend sees this one because I feel like this one it's dedicated to him.

Tiger Lillies are pretty. lol Now, very nice I like how you compare yourself to the flower. It makes me think your needy but inreality most people need just a touch of attention and they can "bloom" for weeks. I can imagine the flower like its right next to me. Good job!

"When the stems grow crooked
and the petals start to wilt,
you spring forth your flowing fountain
and come to my rescue."

I thought this the perfect wording , how better to describe someone that is everything .
Creative, smooth flow and an enjoyable read

Ill say it's a unique write with a uniquer idea. wow, I love the buildup to the end. It seems really watering and fresh.

Words of Wisdom with your last quote,
you've pinned down a very romantic piece here.

Wow, this was a great read, a very beatiful poem and i liked everlasting's quote as well. keep up

I absolutely love the metaphor you used here to explain your love for your man and how he brings you up when you are down, how he is your life line.
I especially like how in the last stanza you very bluntly state, how this is not just a metaphor... but a fact of truth that helps you survive.

It reminds me of the first poem I ever wrote, how you liken your love and relationship to a flower.

I would love it if you read it... it's called

Hourglass.

also... another poem I wrote that uses the wondrous budding of a flower is called

Bloom

your poem here is a five out of five

...im off to read another of yours:)

I truly love how you expressed your love for, and the need to be loved in return by this person.
So strong, and passionate. Good flow.

5/5

I'm speechless, this is so stunning and creative!! 5/5

Hhhmm! 'Love is like a plant, you nurture it with water, sun, fertilizer and maintenance. You enjoy it when ripe and it'll be worthwhile in your lifetime. Perhaps not so if you don't shower it with its neccessities'

So same applies to us too. Who loves to be much more pampered than us? We put a lot of efforts in earning the love of someone. As soon as we obtain it, we flung it to the unknown compounds. Hence loosing its once most cherished TLC. It doesn't take much to keep each other for a lifetime. If we can just weigh our imperative needs, it won't be much hustle keeping up to our expectations.

Written from an experienced rich recess mind, ;-).. Great as usual of you. Cheers!
