Cool form! It's almost sonnet like and yet with twists and turns that up the originality factor and make it a whole new challenge! I'm a sucker for the seashore so you had me at line one...but more than that you followed form and did it with a lilting joyful tone that is very endearing! Happy 2021 to you!--Karenina

Comment from Boogienights
This is beautiful and romantic. It reminds me of a Shakespeare poem I read once...The passionate Shepard to his lover...one of my favorites. I find this poem to be well written and very lovely. Thanks for sharing. :)

A beautifully written Roger's refrain, with those classically written mono rhymed stanzas, and a great refrain that rings true with every stroke of the pen. Yes, Elaine and I lived "in sin" before getting married six years later, two years before the birth of our first born, (arranged by God) I became a Christian 13 years later, but God takes the flotsam of this world and turns it into gold, well done Jim, blessings Roy

I adore the sentiments here, the loving connection and your words are heartfelt. The meter is slightly uneven in places but I can hear some melody here, love Dolly x

Hello, Jim,
Lovely entry for the Roger's Refrain event in Potlatch Poetry challenge. It's a wonderful love poem. Good stanzaic quatrain stanzas in mono-rhyme. Well done.

Comment from Ann Market
This heartfelt poem is lovely. I particularly liked your use of the title and the describing sentence... "build castles by the sea"...it's almost like a lifetime promise and commitment.
Beautiful poem!

Comment from Suzanna Ray
Dear JLR, You have done an excellent excellent job on constructing this poem for a very demanding potlatch poetry club challenge. I looked to see if there was one stanza that I liked better than the other, but outside of choosing another word here or there, I could not suggest anything, to make it better.

What a sweet and lovely love poem from a romantic soul. Reading this made me forget everything not connected to love. Wonderfully written!

Comment from Susan Larson
This is SO romantic and how could any woman resist such an invitation from such a sensitive loving poet? Only in this line "my wife you'd be come now my" I had to keep rereading it, because I didn't know if "be come" should be one word, or if there should be a comma after "be" No one else seemed to be bothered by that, so I guess it's just me! This would be a six if I still had one.
