    My dearest Tang,
    A gift from you I will treasure always. Words that spin in my head, leaving my heart more elated than before reading this. I'll await that first one, and the many more to follow. Thank you for the smiles.
    I love you!
    ♥

    Simply beautiful. And the only reason I know who wrote this is I haven't seen anyone shape poetry like you. She is one lucky lady. I await a day when I can hear the tales that spill forth from you both. This is beautiful Tang, I am sure Storm will love this.

    Best of luck in the contest
