The rain and the sun do bring a brilliance of beauty. Like your image and poem. We need the sun to bring some warmth so the flowers can blossom which are sprouting from the ground.

A very nice to welcome in the coming Spring/Summer season. Here, in Michigan, we get very little of that "Sun" you speak of, but we have plenty of beauty after the rain.

A very uplifting and hopeful thought, thanks.

This tetractys, Springtime Rapture, has the proper formatting and shows the readers an example of this eruption of growth to move the season into full force.

I need to thank you for teaching me a new word. I'm in my 40s and this is the first time I've heard the word 'Ebullience'. I like it! Now I want an excuse to use it.

Hello,

An awesome entry for the Tetractys Contest. It flows well with beautifully descriptive words that paint a clear mental picture.

The theme about nature is beautiful as the presentation.

Well done! I wish you the best in the contest.

What a lovely use of the poem's parameters, and what a perfect picture to accompany your words. "Ebullience of beauty" is a very powerful phrase that really gets across the degree of beauty. Good luck in the contest.

This is a truly lovely poem which I have just seen right here around me. The rain ended and the world is full of blossoms. You've picked a very attractive picture also. Best wishes for the contest.

Hi author, your poem has good imagery. I can see it.

I especially liked:
and Earth erupts with sudden ebullience of beauty.

(I like the above because the reader can envision their
own beautyu.)

Lovely photo. I'd love to go there for about a month.
As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck.
