Love At First Sight

I met him in a time and place so long ago! His handsome face I longed to touch. It was at night. He saw me too - love at first sight! We danced a while and ever since, we've been together. As my prince, he has my heart. It's only right we share this life in love's embrace. June 22, 2018 For Silent One's Seven lines of romantic heaven Poetry Contest This is Septilla Form: aabccba with Iambic tetrameter.

I think you're probably the most proficient--and prolific--"forms" poet on this site. Congrats.

thanks so much, Dale. It's what I try to be (proficient and prolific) . I am not top-notch with outstanding imagery like you are. If only i could be my best in all three!!

Wow, what a sweet romantic poem, Andrea, and you are such a technician when it comes to form, I love that about your writing. Sorry it didn't make it into the contest, I think Tom had that same issue with one of his poems. JOhn

Andie, I am so sorry this amazing, romantic piece did not make it into the contest for it would have been a big winner indeed! It's so mystical when love at first sight becomes the love of a lifetime! Hugs and love. Pandita

You mastered the meter and the form in delicate style, to be read but not to touch or interfere.

Me thinks this poem has some truth to it Andrea? : ) Very romantic and nostalgic. Best of luck in the contest. I am not sure if I can come up with something for the contest but hope I can. xxoo

yes, it's pretty much true, Connie. I can't believe this. I entered it in the contest and it did not go through!! In my contest area, it's not showing as entered, but I know I entered it. It disturbs me because it has gotten hardly any reads!!
