Okay, so I met a wonderful, wonderful man. And we have finally taken the step and said that we loved each other. So for the last month or so I've been walking around in the clouds.
In honor of this happiness I've decided to host a contest. This may be cheesy, but I don't care. I'm in love and I'm allowed to be.
So what I want you to do is write a love poem. (no lost love, or sad stuff this time, sorry folks)
Those are the only rules. Otherwise you have free reign.
However, because of this I expect high quality poetry. Put forth your very best.
