Again, I'm trying very hard to make sense of the poem.

I like the beginning - 'bye spring ... sounds childlike and perky.

I can't figure out what 'must dark go' means.

I gave you Four stars because I was a bit confused by this poem. The first line seems as if you are saying goodbye to spring and yet the rest of it reads as though you are welcoming it.

I can't quite understand this. Spring traditionally is a sign of hope, while I can see you comparing the darkness to the other side of this, it still needs something. Maybe a stronger metaphor. Don't know. Thanks for sharing. Les

Must dark go! I noticed that your last line was in the form of an exclamation mark, rather than a question mark. Do we need the darkness to balance out the light?

I see a very nice picture of tulips this is Spring time I would guess. The background is a lovely shade of green and the font is a nice matching shade of brown. A rather well presented poem. In dire need of an editor...

Liked the energy to this. The light imagery was fresh and helped create a energetic feel. The flow and the rhythm were great. Nicely done.

Well, I understand that spring comes and goes, fall comes and goes, there is new hope...when God comes into a life and changes their heart and mind, the darkness goes.

Although it is 5-7-5 syllables, your poem makes very little sense, no matter what or whose style it is. Spring usually brings the sun, so why would you tell it goodbye and then ask for the sun? And 'must dark go' sounds like it needs a question mark rather than an exclamation point. I like punctuation in poetry, but there's a little too much in these three little lines. Sorry!

Your poem is beautifully illustrated and the poem is in good 5/7/5 syllable count.
good assonance of long I sounds in lights shine
and of long O sounds in hopes glow
good alliteration in minds/make/must
