Orphaned Nature (Musette)

Orphaned Nature

Oh Spring!
just look around,
Lark sings.

Leaves sore
Daffodils smile
no more.

Ignored
nature's carcass
Implore.

    Your poems always bring a smile. Your imagination and selection of words always amazes me. Your thoughts are always inspiring.
    You really should think of publishing your poems.

    all the best and take care

    In my country we have an abundance of daffodils each Spring. They are planted along almost every road, along with other Spring flowers ( we have a name to uphold!) and it always saddens me so when they are no longer in bloom and start to wither away. I could feel that sadness within your words as well.

    Well done:)

    Hugs,

    5/5 Ingrid

    I think your poem compliments the form that you used. Well as spring is almost over, a new seasons awaits.

    Raj, this is a good write using the form. I get the sense that Spring is almost over and summer is on the way. Well done.
