Could I have written such a poem when I was 12? I doubt it, but there were a few girls I would have liked to date back then, if only I had the courage.

It shows surprising maturity that a twelve-year-old can write poetically of love with such well rhymed couplets. A great title, I find it hard to believe that this now mature poetess could not now write her "Love songs" with quite some degree of passion.
Very mature write for a 12 year old, nicely spun. Rob

Thank you for all your kind comments.
I feel it is so much more difficult to put pen to paper when you are my age and write about feelings and particularly love because you have lived those emotions, all the pain, tears and joy. When I was a girl the romantic love was fairytale, something one read about in books or watched on television or film.
I am in the process of writing three poems at the moment but am finding it so hard and I am very critical about what I have written so far.
Tell me real poets, do you have the same problems.
