You definitely captured this, however love games are very dangerous games to play.--Melvina--

That's why we love them! And when you finally work it out and think you've captured her heart for sure, that's exactly when you'll lose it. It's the sweetest game. Great representative wordplay.Clever, clear and concise.

This is fine write - I especially admire your terseness and original imagery. The crafty Buonaparte specialised in appearing where he was not expected. A complex and haunting write. - Will

Understood. It's that situation that makes you feel like your blood flows both ways at once. Esra

The complexities of a female mind exposed - the frustration oozed out of this one Brian. Loved the strength of the rhyme and metre, seemed to echo the thoughts ticking over in the narrator's mind. Warmest wishes, Justine.

Beautiful.. Absolutely, truly beautiful.. I sort of read this poem from the opposite perspective.. Being the tempest you speak of and feeling out your point of view. I really was entertained.. You captured so much.

She's changeable as weather, beautiful and compelling as a mystery. I love the way you expand the 'love is a game' metaphor. Warmly, Julia
