Sue, I like this one with a small caveat. The last line seems to leave a thought in the middle, though maybe that's the intent. Best phrase: " feelings snap." Good luck in the contest!

This is a nice little poem, Sue. Yes, true love makes us sing. Were you supposed to use all the given words? I noticed that you omitted "sell."

In its brevity, this poem paints an accurate picture of the emotions one expereiences when he/she falls in love.

You did an excellent job of working all the words except one (I couldn't find "sell") into a such a short poem, which also covers the gamut of emotions. I love the phrase "feelings snap"--I have felt that way so many times and it is so accurate to the human condition. Good juxtaposition of picture and poem.

    Hi Alvin, really glad you liked this little poem. And thank you for pointing out the phrase you liked. The contest calls for only using 7 of the 8 words. I left "sell" out. And thank you for your compliments and very kind review. Sue :-))
