Man, this is gorgeous! So full of loveliness! A resounding awwwh could be heard as the poem ended. What wonderful evoking of emotion-what a way to convey such an over-conveyed feeling!
And as usual your perfect flow and rhyme only helped your message through the minds (and hearts!) of your readers. I don't doubt that I'll return to read this poem again just to feel the beauty of it...

Really, thank you.

Nicely done. Worthy of a return.

[Star Wolf]

This is very beautiful, tender and very loving.

Good meter, good rhyming, nice flow start to finish, I like the dash in line 4 - adds a more lengthy pause whle reading (good effect). I don't understand the sequence/significance of punctuation (period after stanza one, nothing after stanza two, and exclamation point after stanza three - though I certainly approve of the exclamation point). I am only slightly bothered by a 'glow' to new leaves - I'd look for some other rhyming word, but not worry if I didn't find one. Nice work.

So beautiful! The use of a tree as a symbol is perfect and the overall flow and rhyme of this poem is fantastic too.

That was a nice, short and powerful poem :) I loved it

[The Analog Kid]

The tree has so many ways to be symbolic. I like the way you used it here. The roots are the staying power of love. Beautiful write.
