Very beautiful, There are really no more words to add
the only bit I didnt like so much was the last paragraph as much as the rest it didnt have the same effect for me but the rest of it was very good

So many beautiful images are conjured up in my mind as I read this... my two favourite lines fell adjacent to one another,
"A xylophone of icicles that ring in winds that swell,
The artistry of snowflakes with their intricate design, "

Very nice. Nice rhyme scheme too. The only thing I would say could be improved is the subject matter, which is perhaps a little too "nice," but it really is well done.

I certainly do love your writing here. Your imagery and your use of words and your creativity all played a most precious togetherness to write such wonderful words. I loved your photo,art work of the bird life really combined well within your words written.

"I write from deep inside my heart, with words that touch my soul
Where every feathered whispered sound becomes a written goal.
From the nectar in the honey that sugar coats my tongue
And all of nature's visuals I seem to be among.

A hummingbird that buzzes by revealing ruby throat.
A butterfly that lingers near and settles on my tote.
A bubble swept up by a breeze that has a rainbow's glow.
These are the things that make me scribe, the things I love and know

The melodies of chirping birds, carillon's tinkling bells,
A xylophone of icicles that ring in winds that swell,
The artistry of snowflakes with their intricate design,
Wherever inclination leads I follow to incline."

I am amazed by your descriptive words and the gentle way you write. I really loved your writing and I hope this writing of yours becomes what you may want to happen.

I loved every word written here. I must congratulate you for your wonderful words and presentation.

Honeytree.

Hello, Helvi2. I would certainly give you six stars if I still had one in my file. This is a beautiful poem well deserving of a six. The rhyme and meter could not be better and your thoughts and feelings about nature are crystal clear. A pleasure to read and review. Easy to see why you've won accolades for this one. Sincerely, Harriet from FL

This is such a charming and uplifting work. The natural world is well incorporated in this poem. I can see the blue waves crested with white foam, and found myself reminded of the surf in Ocean City, MD. Well done, nothing I'd change.

A very lovely poem. I know it won the award of the month, but I thought you maybe shouldn't have used Spring twice in the same sentence. Good write with lots of metaphors, rhyme and very good word use. The metering is perfect, too. Thanks for sharing it. Sharon

This deserves a 6++++ Helvi, both for structural perfection and its content. I enjoyed each word, each line, and floated along with the sing-song lilt you gave this amazing piece of poetry. I always love to read a winning poem when it is truly deserving of its win, and this one definitely is EXTREMELY deserving.

It's beautiful work, and I'm privileged to have read it, and over the moon it was given all due acknowledgement xoxoxoxoxo
