I love the picture you chose! I like the use of tails of love entwine. Seahorses are the wildest sea creatures to watch and I think you captured the beauty of their essence brilliantly in your piece. Great job!

Comment from Poetic Friend
Wow, romance in the sea. In minimal words, your poem is image-filled, romantic, and narrative.
I love the play on words in the last line. I enjoyed the "tail." :)

What strange love - sea horse with its "tiny dragon heart" sings to the lovely mermaid in the sea. What a winsome story of an impossible love. Great job and good luck in the contest.

Comment from Xelmyrion
I'm not sure if it was the picture that threw me or just the use of the word "dragon" here. The two (for me) do not seem to relate.
Setting that aside, I really liked the rest of it. If there is a suggestion I would make it'd be to revisit the choice of pictures.
If I set the picture aside, the piece is really quite good.
