Really enjoyed this one.
The whole poem breathed the feeling of joy. From the first line, which could stand alone as a title, through the movement and freedom of line two, to the raison d'etre "hearts full of love".
Neat, concise, reads well, good luck in the contest.

Thanks Sueellen, for a wonderful review
Comment from vkmack
Really like this--and it uses emotion! Some of the entries don't even bother with that. The artwork adds a lot here, too.
You choice of words here is excellent--"fountain, bubbles, wild and free"--all to describe joy. Use of youth and hearts is extremely good as well. All of this speaks to the emotion of love very well, not just joy alone. You've done excellent work with this senryu. Good luck in the contest.
