To Fall in Tennessee

Michael,

The first two stanzas were excellent, but the last one was really weak..It almost seems like you were rushing it and that is a shame, because if it had been as beautiful as the first two you would have had a gem.

It is worth a 5 nonetheless, because it is not a bad poem.

5/5 Ingrid

Lovely imagery ... of spring and fall
//There is no need to cry
They will come back another day
While we all look toward the sky
// loved the positiveness in these lines
beautifully written

From summer in Kentucky
To fall in Tennesee
All things spring to life
Before winter snows on me
>>Mich..this is a very very very flowing stanza..and truly lyrical...i felt like singing while i read it. the rhyme was perfect and not forced at all..so wat to say more!!

From the beautiful golden hues
After the cold does fall
>>>amazing..i love the feeling and image over here..perfecto

Autumn leaves while we sing blues
That are upon us all
>>>how true and poetic!

As the birds fly away
There is no need to cry
They will come back another day
While we all look toward the sky
>>>MICH the line ( they will come back..) caught my attention..truly..and made me stop for a moment..
YEs very true..they will come back..
such a thoughtful ppoem..worded in a way that only a D. Nalley would word it..and used some perfect images to serve the main concept of this poem.

5/5..excellent !

Absolutely beautiful. I like the way you worded it. Today i was in the garden with my son and now that i red this poem, i remember he asking me if i observe thaty the birds are leaving to find warmth in africa. I said exactly the same thing to him as you said, that they migrate but they will return. Very well done.

Oh this is gorgeos! It has AMAZING imagery! I could picture eveything crystal clear! If only it snowed in my hick town in Texas... Haha.

But I really loved this poem of yours!
