wonderful poem, well done 10

lord of god makes a real poem wonderful

love this too. from john tiong

I think perhaps that taking this poem and 'Dear Stranger' and formating them as an actual letter might be the most effective way to make your point here. I like both poems, but I think they really need to be one. As a love letter, the poem need not announce its intention. Let the statements and images communicate that. Or you could just title the new poem something like 'Love Letter to a Man Like You' and go from there. I've enjoyed your work and wish you the best of luck.
