Tonight you feel me with such passion
As we share sweet kisses while the sun sets
You constantly show me so much compassion 
I can imagine Elton singing “ Bennie and the Jets

As we share sweet kisses while the sun sets
Everything in the world seems so far away
I can imagine Elton singing” Bennie and the Jets 
That is why I give you my heart each day

Everything in the world seems so far away 
Because of you I whole heartedly believe in true love
That is why I give you my heart each and day
We fit perfect together like hand and glove

Because of you I whole heartedly believe in true love 
You constantly show me so much compassion 
We fit perfect together like hand and glove 
Tonight you feel me with such passion

Beautiful rhythm ripples through your impassioned poetic lines Alexis. A wonderfully penned pantoum which is fluid and graceful in its sweet romance. Best wishes for a win..

Masterfully written pantoum, Alexis. This romantic message shines. Btw ... LOVE that song. It brings back such cool teenage memories. Wonderful poetry, my talented friend. Love and smiles always.

This is wonderful, Alexis - so full of old-fashioned romance and love ... love the imagery and phrasing, but the setting is even sweeter! (And kissing is my favorite thing in the world, so I was sold from line two). Blessings, Friend! :-) <3

Brilliant verse Alexis. Good luck. I've tried copy and paste but it does not work.(even on computer, can only put images on from the net, below categories' there's a box and you have to click the little icon on top right and on the image click right and copy image url, then paste it in that box, click ok. image should be there and click update poem. I'm new so don't know if There is a better way. Tom
