Comment from The Cowboy Poet
Small events can inspire great moments for a writer who is attuned to things around her. A poet's senses are very keen. An excellent observation and even more excellent rendition of what you witnessed.

Comment from Gaye Hemsley
Hi Brooke It amazes me all the different forms of poetry there are. Your did this one very well. I often think I'd like to be an artist when I look at the way the light plays on mountains and dales. Instead I have my camera handy. By the way us dance teachers talk about light and shade with tap dancing! Cheers Gaye

My husband was a photographer - light and shade are extremely important to them! Light and shade in tap dancing - I like that. Thank you, Gaye. Brooke :-)
Comment from steevie
to me the poem is about new beginnings
each day comes and we make what we can of it, whether it be a good day or not so good a day
but we can glean from each day something positive if we look
I'm not sure if this was what you were looking for in your poem as far as interpretation, but that how I saw your poem
I hope my explanation doesn't disappoint you
take care

Oh wonderful...you are so very talented. This poem captured so perfectly what I love about early spring and late winter. I am also a photographer and the play of light you talk about in this poem is dream to all picture takers. The poem sounds lovely when read out loud, and it's rhyming scheme is smooth.

My husband was a photographer and I was often with him as he looked for the perfect light :-) Thanks so much for your most generous and encouraging review. Do you post pictures on fan art?? Brooke :-)

Hi, Brook,
I love when a moment presents itself and inspiration strikes. This first attempt at a new form has a unique subject which makes it fresh; my favorite phrase is "design has come undone." In reading your piece, I find that the word "clouds" wants to be emphasized...what do you think?

Thank you. I'm not sure what you mean by the question. :-) Do you mean emphasized as in accented or as in as a subject?
Brooke

Accented. It just seems like "clouds" is said with emphasis.

Lovely visual eye candy is what you have provided in this short and beautifully written piece. Metaphorically I can see the association of life's ups and downs interweaving every experience essential to a new and bright beginning. Life never without change a necessary part of living and gaining perspective. Thank you for sharing, lovely.

Brooke, you can write in so many different types of poetry and I commend you for that. This poem is lovely and simple and just so beautiful. I don't have enough knowledge of poetry to try so many different forms. You are a pro.

Mary Jayne, thank you. Each time I try a new form it is a leap of faith. Heck, if one doesn't work out, it just ain't a tragedy! LOL Brooke :-)

Nicely done. I could see the play of sunlight, the green, both the dark and the bright. Thanks for sharing the view from your window with me.
