Hi Brooke, this is an extremely visual poem. I love the way there's a positive for every negative. Except when the poem says there's no substitute for you. Nice rhyming and an enjoyable read. luv jada

Another masterfully written poem. Wonderful rhyme (as always) that makes reading your poems such a pleasure. The last stanza is so perfect.

'Nothing Is A Substitute.' A very nice little poem you have created here, Brooke. It always amazes me how children can compensate for different things, if what they really wanted is not available. They make do! Well done.

Comment from tbacha58
There seems to be an antidote
for all that makes me blue,
but nothing is a substitute
when I'm apart from you.
That is a beautiful poem, wishing for the future spring and summer, a delightful poem, especially with Sawyer playing with the summer sand.
Enjoyed reading your wishes. Hugs and love to both of you. Terry
