A nice and calming poem, and enjoyable to read. I'm certainly no english major of any sort, but i questioned the rhyming scheme on the first and second vereses. Other than that, it turned out great, loved the words you used and the relationship with other words around it.

This is a really good modern sonnet. The life of a family described in a very genteel way.
"We lie before the fire; and embers glow
Contentment now, we raised the darlings well".
Time now for each other to renew their love.
It is a lovely theme, simple but very well done. Excellent Kay

Sue - You must be a great romantic at heart. Loved the visual imagery of the romantic scene that you write and I can hear the crackling fire. Nicely done. Charlie

This is a very good entry in to this Romantic English Sonnet contest. Your rhyme scheme perfectly embodies the contest requirements and your story was easily readable and understandable. You told a fine story that should speak to the romantic in all of us. mslyla

...and may the flame continue to blossom, in all its beauty and glory, for as many moons as may come.

This is beautiful stuff; it has a slight air of the wistful, but no whimsy. Just an urgent sense of love.

I remember those days when all it took was a bushing touch to get all stirred up. The love continuing on was beautifully written. I enjoyed your English Sonnet very much. Judy
