Well done on your poem. I have to admit it was a little hard to read, but I loved the story line. Love has a way of making the heart flutter. Good luck in the contest.
Blessings

    Hi T B Botts! Thank you for the excellent review and the good luck wishes. I'm sorry it was a little hard to read, but this was my first time working with concrete poetry. Hopefully, I get a little better with practice with putting the words into shapes. I appreciate that you took the time to read my poem and provide feedback. Have a blessed New Year!

This is a cool concept! It was a bit hard to read at first, but I figured it out. The formatting could be better, but I'm no expert on that, I always have to go back and fix something. I love the line "...my medical chart shows you've melted my heart..." Great piece! Good luck!

Ciao mystery poet!

You now have 7 votes!

I like the theme you chose to describe your art choice : an electrocardiogram.

Glad you chose to write about two hearts that fall in love rather than something more obvious like someone that dies due to heart failure after an accident or an illness.

Ciao !

Pattern poetry is more difficult to construct than when we had computers. There's too much correction with computers. I also sensed with the cadence, shortness of breath. This was a challenge for a contest. Well done.

I like the poem and what it stands for. The intention for the EKG look also would have fit in there nicely. If you look up "free clip art" plus "EKG" you will find clip art of an EKG to use for your picture for your poem.

I like the way you have set out this poem. It is unusual and cleverly thought out. The story is well written, covers their meeting, their falling in love and marriage. Good luck in the contest.

Fun and cute. I like your attempt at reconstructing the rhythm of the heartbeat -- too bad English doesn't oblige but in an asian (vertically represented) language you'd have great fun with it. You worked the rhyme in well.
