Lora, if you're going to write formal verse, you need to know what you're doing. Read some good formal poems by Elizabeth Bishop if you want to move beyond awkward phrasing and conventional expressions.

And lets love untill the day we die A great wish made in a few words... I like it...thanks for sharing
