My love is like a beautiful garden
whose flowers spray the fragrance of my love
where blooms the rose- of priceless golden
but the gardener's worth is all above!
it is a place of eternal charm
and lovers tempted to pick the flower
but seek I dost the flowery arm
that give a joy of heavenly bower
her smile blossoms the pristine violets
her blush reddens the poppies of bliss
drowsy eyes art her sacred amulet
and heaven lies in her sublime kiss
the coyness with which the gardener eyes
and the rhythm in which her flowers sway
it drowns me into a brook where lies
my life, wherein my heart do stay
the brook is the gardener's fertile dome
from where floweth the flowery stream
the seeds of beauty which art then grown
are like the old tale of beauty's dream
that sleeps forever and knows no time
and waits for the destined touch to be felt
changes be the seasons and be clime
run dry the rivers, be the mountains melt
but I shalt, on my steed carrying the touch
wake up the seed, waiting which from yore
but then this feel break my heart as such
and methinks - " If shalt love me more? "
so I stop by the shore, and stare yonder
into the garden of beauty that breathes
someone has picked that flower of wonder
she smiles, and his arms do her now wreathes
and she smiles, and his arms do her now wreathes...

Aww, that was so adorable.

I'm trying to figure out what dialect you're exactly using, cause it seems to be a mix of shakespeare, traditional, and something along the lines of a Japanese sonnet
The wording though, may just be a slight issue here. Some people won't understand some of the words, for instance, I had to look at the word wreathes a few times cause I didn't compute exactly what it said (and now that I have, I feel dumb, cause that shouldn't of been something I didn't follow correctly)
The idea behind this is very simple, though in the wording you give, you lay a beautiful scene of love and devotion out before us that girls my age just love to eat up
Keep writing, I like this one

I thought this was an interesting poem! You did very well with imagery, and the theme with which you started off with - how love is garden - is so vividly conveyed throughout the rest of the poem. I enjoyed the historical style with which you wrote. I think this was my favorite line - "and the rhythm in which her flowers sway". It pictures so much - not just the movement of the flowers, but also the movement of the wind, the tempo of nature, as well as the rhythm of the poem.
Like others have said, a good poem doesn't necessarily have to rhyme. I think you could convey a lot more depth with a freeverse style, that way you're not always focusing on which word rhymes with which. Although the descriptions aren't textbook cliche, I feel as though the material itself is shallow. Does he only love her for her beauty? What else draws him to her? Including those thoughts will define the love he has for her more uniquely.
Hello there Leo! I'm here to save your work from the green room!
This is a really beautiful love poem.
I like your use of flowery language, as it is a flowery poem. Unfortunately, in some places I feel like you were unsuccessful in the way the sentence is laid out. For example the very last line "And she smiles, and his arms do her now wreathes..." I think the confusion of this sentence could be alleviated a bit by changing the "wreathes" to just "wreath."
It would read "and she smiles, and his arms now wreathe her."
What I'm trying to say, and I don't think I'm making it clear, is that these lines aren't clear. And I know that's for the sake of rhyming and for the sake of sounding nice and flowery.
To me, this poem, although beautiful and skillfully written, is just a fluff poem. I would love to see some sort of meaning in this but I don't know how to tell you to change the whole poem.
For what it is, it's pretty good. you obviously have skill
keep writing~

Thanks for sharing your comment....I would definitely work on it.....
Hi, I'm Hightop, and firstly, a warm welcome to YWS
(I'll be at your wall shortly!) xD, now on to reviewing!
Firstly, I noticed a lack of capitalization and punctuation, but I'm assuming that's a stylistic choice on your part.
Secondly, paragraphs. Again this may be another stylistic choice, but I think they would befit the poem greatly! Although that's my opinion.
On rhyming scheme, again another stylistic choice that I'm not a fan off (for a legitimate reason thus time O_O). Rhyming schemes will always, without a doubt, limit your wordpool. Usually this ends with the poem suffering. Freeverse poetry let's you swim in an infinite wordpool that let's you say things however you want!
Those are just stylist choices, which have very little to do with my overall opinion if the poem, which is to say that I liked it!
Your subject was clear and your descriptions were good. Word choice was good ( considering your limited woordpool) and it flowed nicely.
One last thing, I don't think 'sprayed' is the best word to describe how a flower portrays its scent.
Okay, so well done, the only problems I had with it vary from person to person, remember that!
Signing off, (and hoping you don't get offended!)
Hey!!! thanks for your honest comment on my poem......With regard to the thing you mentioned of using paragraphs, which I would prefer to call stanzas, I wrote this poem in quatrains i.e 4 lines in one stanza, but when I posted it, it turned out to be in a paragraph (maybe due to technical problem).....But, nevertheless, I thank you for your comment....
