This is a very lovely poem about "Come On Summer" writing prompt for Y.M. Roger's Even the Odd's contest. A perfectly executed syllable format along with a rhyme mid-way. I loved it!! Good luck in the contest! Cheers, Fonda

Great job. I had to re-do my poem on this form as I did not make first and last line synonyms. This one worked. Good luck in the contest. I do wish we had lilacs. haven't gotten to grow over here where it's a bit cold most nights.
Good poem.

A very well-written even-the-odds poem about the delight of summer when the butterflies come out to feast on the nectar of the flowers which is their sweet blissful drink.

Summer has so many positive aspects that we look forward to, such as warm weather, butterflies, flowers, bees, and hummingbirds. All of nature seems to come together at this time of year. Best wishes.

This poem has wonderful images of summer. I like how the rose is countered by the lilac and the butterfly seems to be the go-between. There certainly is joy and bliss here.
