Wow, another fine poem about love. I like the art work you chose: it shows how fragile love can be. It's here today, but can be washed away in an instant if we're not careful. Great job.

This poem effected me--to think of all of those hearts drawn in the sand only to be washed away. Poem speaks of the transient nature of love. Thanks for sharing a wonderful poem and I wish you success in the contest.

This poem has a nice flow to it. Very well written. Strong imagery of lovers wanting to hold on to something beautiful,while entertaining the possibility of uncertainty as time goes by.

Tab: Great use of iambic beat with this poem, so neat!!! I like the questions. How many sand castles were washed away? Who walked on this sand? So many questions one can ask. How did you do the hearts without foot prints all around them? Which beach is this? Good entry. flylikeaneagle

I got the beach picture from Google images so I don't know where it was. Good question though about not having footprints:) The poem was inspired and written while I was walking the beach recently when I visited Maui. Thanks for the great review:)

It matters not how many times words of love are written on paper, wood or sand. Once words of love are written upon the heart they are forever inscribed. That
is until or unless the cruel hand of betrayal comes and over writes those words of love with words of hate. Great poem and I love it as well as the lovely image that accompanies it.
