    I too loved the fourth line, though the whole poem was really nice. Perfect selection of words to describe Springtime :) Definitely a time of renewal & beauty, you made the poem come alive. Lovely!

    My absolute favorite part was "dressing trees", it made the poem seem so intimate and like you said, nurturing. Loved the form and you wrote such a calm and beautiful poem about spring. Great read :]

    I really enjoy reading formed poetry and nature poems, especially since I do not believe that I am very good when it comes to the latter. Each word you wrote has its place and shouldn't be removed or exchanged because I think they contain the essence of spring very well. As much as I'd love to go on about what I liked about this poem, I should probably stop here, otherwise I'd start blabbering.

    Beautiful poem! :)

    Great job, you've really described what Spring is all about in such a simple way, it's very beautiful. Really enjoyed "renewing, nurturing, unfolding." The way you worded that is really creative and visual in such great lengths. The plants renewing and nurturing back to health, unfolding their leaves and being reborn, great insight, such beauty is such a short poem.

    I love the fourth line about lush green petals. Lush almost always belongs in a nature poem, especially where spring is involved :) This painted a really beautiful picture for me. Spring is my second favorite season (fall is #1 :D ) and the whole life-after-death feeling is a huge reason why. You've definitely captured the essence and beauty of this season. Awesome write!
