Here's another sweet and simple poem with a big and hearty message. Smooth thyme and meter giving us a playful "I wish, and a firm reminder that life holds the sweetness we desire.

Another good one, Brooke. Nice ABCB rhyme scheme and alliterations of bumble bee, perfumed pools,seeds/sown help to make it flow smoothly. Beautiful picture to compliment. 8-)

Dear Brooke,

If only I was a bubble bee oh what fun that would seem, but instead I'll use its example and fill my basket with joy.

Warm regards,

Winslow

Is a bumble bee better off than us humans? Who knows. Yet, our existence is the some, in that we must live life to the fullest. A perfect spring poem!!!! Les

Poem flows nicely with good word choice of rhymes. More importantly to me is the feeling of this long winter about to finally end.

Brooke, how magnificently you write your rhythm that flow so smoothly throughout your poem is though it was written by an Angel who uses one of her own feathers as a quill pen. Fascinated by your creativity, resourcefulness and inventiveness. Thank you so much for sharing and posting your work for everyone and may the Lord be with you always.
