What a delightful love poem Mikey. Such passion and excitement ... how lucky you are to be so loved. Yet not luck, I bet you are everything she thinks you are .... and at the same time that dear sweet little boy. lol
Magnificent presentation ... I love "this little bright eyed boisterous boy
that spins and runs on Saturn's swirling rings
chasing marbles 'round and 'round against the wind" - great phrasing and unique thought... just you for sure. :)))
A gorgeous romantic tribute to your true love in your own unique style, which always 'says' a trillion times beyond the words. So pleased you excelled in POM and cast with some of the best. Well done. Bravo! Huge congratulations. Hugs Lovi xoxoxox

I am so happy you enjoyed it. I was most shocked to be nominated. It truly never crossed my mind. Yes, some big names there. Wow, I got quite a few votes too. You are too sweet. I don't think I can smile any bigger than this without calling the paramedics. Thank you so much!! hugs back, mikey

yesh! I knew you would get nominated someday. your free verse poems are SUPERB.
I LOVE this one
"She sees me as a lustrous light of celestial origin
a blazing-blast, blistering-fast, free-flight beam
to thrill the sky's wide-eyed gaze
this little bright eyed boisterous boy
that spins and runs on Saturn's swirling rings
chasing marbles 'round and 'round against the wind"
I can't believe I never reviewed this one. It's super duper exceptional. The alliterations in "b" are fascinating and go well with the flow.
"spins and runs on Saturn's swirling rings"- wow!
this is truly poetic, Mikey!
"watching ripples write adventures
on the water's flustered face"
awesomeness. exceptional!
hugs
Amanda

Hi Amanda, I am so behind in everything that it is insane. So, I found one of yours so I can say hello and Happy New Year!! We did pretty good. We both got votes and didn't get laughed off the site. hahaha. I was happy to be nominated and shocked. You picked the line that I thought was pretty good too! You keep disappearing and I keep thinking I will have to paddle a canoe to China to see how you are. I hope you are well. It will be fun being millionaires next year and looking back and laughing about how we were poor in 2013. hahaha. mikey

this work draw me in. . .the language is vivid and clear - I especially like this: his silly small boy that skims rocks
from shore to distant shore unseen
watching ripples write adventures
on the water's flustered face
and stardust in her eyes is incredible

You breach the boundaries of artistic
endeavor with your poem of love that
whispers words filled with adoration
and the warm glow of ever lasting devotion
to that one and only who also looks
at you with stardust in her eyes.
Well done

You wrote a really beautiful poem here and I can understand why you won the Poem of the Month contest. (I'm sure you came 1st - if not you should have been - I voted for you). Beautifully descriptive and imaginative - the things a 'silly' boy will do for love. A lovely read. Merry Christmas and all the best for the New Year to you and yours. Regards Dorothy

Oh, my goodness, what a great world it would be if all little boys could look back on their childhood with such fondness and love. Mothers or guardians that inspire such a poem should be venerated and congratulated for a job well done! This poem, especially the last couple of lines, brought tears to my eyes. Well done and beautifully written!!

I'm giving you six stars for this one. I love it. The way you changed the font color to highlight certain lines/words helped me understand the most important points you were trying to portray. Excellent work.

In other words, we never see ourselves the way our loved ones see us. The words are powerful and I felt the star-dust in his eyes, as he disgrades himself, yet would die for her.

"Stardust in her Eyes" is a very touching poem about perception and reality. Its great to be put on a pedestal, but its a little scary up there. You are lucky to have such a woman and she is lucky to have you. Nicely written!

Nice job, Michael. Your poem is bubbling forth
with love as you describe how she looks at you and you, the "lucky little boy" would do anything for her. So romantically penned. Thanks for sharing! BG 8-)
