The picture is interesting. It personifies spring. Spring is a time of rebirth and color. It's a time to enjoy the rebirth of the earth.

Hello wierdgrace.
This is a beautiful presentation of a lovely poem in an interesting combination of rhyming quatrains and couplets.
It tells the annual story with a fresh and wonderful approach. The best to you.
Fondly, Rebecca

wierdgrace, I love it when you post poetry. You have created such a magical image of spring that you do make it hard to let go and watch it leave..ah but there is beauty in other seasons..it is just that spring is infused with such a harmony of color, songs and smells..well done..jlsavell

Hi Grace,
Yes, I did enjoy! Your poem is lovely, and it certainly describes spring well. Summer is here for sure....but it won't last. :) I hope you are well, it is good to 'see' you!

Good luck in the contest!

wierdgrace,
your poem that tells a story is beautifully written. Lovely art work you used. Excellent imagery, great narrative, and very good descriptive writing. The lines that stood out for me:

Where is the robin and the meadowlark
That sing when yet the earth is dark?
Their defiant musical notes pouring
From the trees or the hilltops towering?

Where are the tiny creatures that fly
When the sunshine's on the rye?
And the butterflies that form a band
That fly along just out of reach of hand
No creature of spring is seen, no not one!
Alas, how sad that spring is gone!
And we mortals have to live and strive
Until spring-time greets us all alive
With the pep and joy!

I loved your nature story in poem form. This is a wonderful entry in the contest. Good luck. Thanks for sharing your poem. . .Melissa.

Wierdgrace, this definitely paints a wonderful picture of springtime and how it soon fades away to the other seasons until windter is upon us. Good job.

This is a very well written poem. I like the way it describes the scene. I like the birds and buterflied, but I am just not sure it tells a story.

I enjoyed this very much. I thought your imagery, phrasing, and choice of words was spot on. The poem flowed nicely. Nothing seemed. Very natural, as is the topic.
