Congratulations, poet friend, on your win with a lovely (romantic) write . Love the imagery of "alabaster walls melt beneath your whispered name". So picturesque. Cheers.

A classic haiku, very creative and easy to read . Nice lay out. All the best dear friend. Even alabaster walls will break and every lock will be opened with love's key.
