A beautiful love poem straight from the heart. No hidden messages or deep meanings - you just say what you feel and it works beautifully. Great job.

Warm regards.

"A New Valentine" is a beautifully written poem that reads so smooth from beginning to end. There is a nice rhythm and perfect rhyming here too. Well done.

This describes perfectly how I feel about the second date with my "super" bowl man. I can only hope. How did you know? It is uncanny that often on this site I chose to read just the words I haven't been able to speak. Great read. joan marie

What a sweet, heartfelt poem. I can think of several friends I could dedicate this too, not just a sweetheart! :) Great technical merits, and beautiful emotion. Thank you for sharing this with us!

Its a touching poem but I have problems with the flow and meter. However, forgive me if this is one of those poems that requires one of the structures that I am not familiar with.

    I'm not quite sure where the difficulty is. Perhaps if you had another read, as every other reviewer has stated that the meter is excellent and unbroken. But, I appreciate your review. Regards, Sue

Lovely expression of affection and a nice lilt to the words. As always a pleasure to read, but I am afraid I have to pronounce "enjoyable" as "enjoible"
To pull the metre into shape. Sorry, Sue, but here I go again. Could you try "So enjoyable just to spend time". I await your reply with trepidation.
Regards
Reg

    It's gotta be that strange accent you blokes have down there! LOL!! Well, the only thing I can say is that it should be read like this: en-JOY-uh-ble - the 9 syllables there doesn't disrupt the rhythm (imho)....but have another read of it again with that pronunciation and let me know what you think. The "uh" part is very subtle. Can't put "so" in front of it because the other two stanzas begin with that (and that kinda bothers me a bit - may change it). Thanks so much for your most honest and kind review. Let me know what you think. Always appreciated, Sue :-))
