Ahh, spring representing the time of new life. It is one of the most beautiful times of year, and brings joy, where winters clouds have blocked the sun. Very good 5-liner. Keep up the good writing!

Hi,
Recently I was told that my reviewing basicly sucks. So this week,
this is my review. I'm taking a survey... Would you rather:
A: Have a true review
B: Have a certain 5-star generic review
Choose wisely and be sure of your choice so I can save myself the
needless time and tears over those who don't want to hear them.
I'll make a list.
And remember.... LEARNING IS EARNING

    I would rather have an honest review where the number of stars match the words.
    I don't like the reviews where the words sound like raves but then you
    only get three stars.

In my opinion, a successful write in depicting the change in seasons, especially with the suggestion of warmth in the color of spring - fully compliant with the prompt - best of luck in the contest...

Very nice 5 Line Poem. Shouldn't last line have just 5 syllables? Might change to "Hope grows. Life's renewed." Or something like that. Of course, I could be wrong. The poem is a nice narrative of winter's decline and the return of leaves and flowers. Good job.

Dragon,
This poem is creative and straight to the point. The changes of the seasons are well stated. However, if I understand the rules of the contest, the fourth line should have 7 syllables and you have 9. Recolors landscape after grayness - maybe something like - Re-tints landscape after gray? Redo the syllables and it's good work!

    Thanks for the encouraging remarks and the careful reading. You are the first one in 13 reviewers to notice the syllable count is wrong. I made the change.

As I sit here on this cold winter day I read your poem of what is to come. While it is a story of winter to spring in a literal sense it also speaks of hope. Good luck with this entry.

A very well-written five-line poem about the springtime that means more sunshine and warmth after the cold winter is always a change for the better.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
