This is just what I'm talking about- -what a mind- -what a 'beautiful' mind, heart, soul to come up with such a beautiful piece. Why shouldn't it be 'Poem of the Month'. Gosh!

Comment from Marjorie D.
This is absolutely lovely--perfect, Brooke. There's not a line I didn't love. It presents vivid imagery and a wonderful sense of peace and contentment. Beginning and ending with identical verses was brilliant! Congratulations on your well-deserved win. Kudos.

Hi adewpearl,
Once again, you have delighted us here on FanStory with this lovely, enchanting piece of poesy. This poem has such a charming, (dare I say Disney?) quality to it; and a satisfying,almost musical cadence. It is sweetly suitable for all age groups. Well, done indeed!

JMR - hey, if you can convince Disney to turn this into a Fantasia kind of cartoon, I'll pay you commission!!! LOL Thanks so much, Brooke :-)

Hi Brooke,
I don't know what happened, but I know I have read and reviewed your poem once before. It is a beautiful write, worthy of more than a six, but unfortunately I don't have a six. This poem has such a light and easy feel and glows with the air of country life. I loved the line about the seamstresses sewing Queen Anne's lace. Simply awesome! The art is beautiful and it is a pleasure to have read and reviewed! Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing. God bless and best wishes!

Thank you so much - I loved writing this poem - so it is wonderful when someone like you enjoys reading it!!! I do appreciate your most gracious comments, Brad :-) Brooke

You know! The reason I look forward to your poems, so much is, because of the grateful, gracious, encouraging replies you offer in gratitude; for my 'inadequate' clumsy reviews. I'm a very uneducated man, and unfortunately, it shows at the most inopportune times.
However, I have many gifts that help me, and usually compensate very well, for my cumbersome writing skills. One of them is the way I can see to the heart of a person. So allow me to offer this. ( And, I hope you won't think me presumptuous. Not my intention :-) Whatever you may, or may not see, think or believe about yourself. I know, you my friend, have an amazingly generous heart. You are gifted beyond just your poetry, you genuinely care about people and deep down you have a craving for something spiritual. Whether you admit these things to yourself or not, I don't really know.
But, this, is the reason I love your poems so much. This is what comes shining through, to me, in every one I've read so far :-)
Anyway, look, I've taken up enough of you precious time with my rambling. I know how busy you must be, reading and writing replies. That's what make each one I receive, even more special. Thanks Brooke. Your generous replies don't go unnoticed. Not by me anyway.
Brad...
Ps :-)

You just have the magic! A simple stroll through a garden and you describe it as a modern day Garden of Eden. So fresh and light! This was great!

Comment from Poetic Friend
Brooke, I don't know how I missed this gem, but I am glad it was nominated (and deservably so).
I must say, you took the reader to that beautiful countryside with you. Your words are stunningly picturesque!
I love the cleverness and creativeness of the "morning glory morning."
Reading this poem is a glorius way to begin any morning.
Good luck in the contest, my friend.

Comment from Narvik
What a lilting poem you've concocted here. Makes me want to go frolic in the forest. You write GREAT metaphors. And this poem was perfect for repeating the first and last stanzas. That doesn't work so well for a lot of poems, but consummated this perfectly. Can't see the vote results until I finish these, but won't be surprised if this is on top.
