Galatea

[Lizzie]

I like the wrap up that characterizes love as a choice, one that isn't dramatic or what we would think of as a love for the ages. And yet it's still sweet. 

I actually like everything except the first stanza: we're told of the vividness of the person, but we're not drawn into a scene. Needs more specifics right off the bat to engage this reader.

I do like the driving pace, and the sparse punctuation that builds momentum.

Best to you, River. Good to see you back.
