*Balloonp* Hiya Cerulean Son! Happy Account Anniversary! *Delight*
This review is being given as part of the "Black Magic Birthday Review BashOpen in new Window., presented by "The Dark SocietyOpen in new Window.


*Balloong* *Heart*OH this is a lovely romantic expression and so reflects the sonnet format. I could hear the tone of love and honour the poet has for the relationship.

The theme of love as one ages is unique and relevant and it is so sweet to hear how the heart and passion can go on as age has its own beauty. This is really from the heart.

I enjoyed reading the sonnet as it flowed smoothly in it's lofty language. The images are so vivid as you paint the picture of aging features with such specifics. *Salute* It contrasts with the still young spirit of the heart. The end couplet sums it effectively as the urge to keep the fire active. Reminds me of the idea if you don't use it, you lose it! *Smile* I liked the last line which gives the only time it may be lessened. a lesson in there somewhere. *Laugh*

The language was lovely and the rhymes interesting. I liked "threads of gray..garland our temples" and had to smile at the second verse. I enjoyed the turn of the language in lines like "firm of muscle".

The only line that stuck out as a bit off was the last one in verse 3. I wanted to leave out "they did" maybe to tighten it up. *Wink*

Well conceived and constructed with a happy vibe and a wonderful tribute to lasting love and passionate romance. *Starstruck*

Thanks for sharing your vision and crafting! Hope you have fun at the WDC anniversary party too!
