The Essence of Spring

by Yuna   May 24, 2007


When the last snowflake melts away,
And the clouds disintegrate to nothing.
One can hope for a single thing,
That’s for spring to ring and sing its melody.

There are many things
One wishes to do,
When spring comes around,
And the sky is blue.

Gardening, playing, t-shirts and shorts,
Are just the beginning is this very sort.
Wildlife, rebirth, rain and sunshine,
Are all that are patiently next in line.

The flowers bloom awaiting the bees,
And the birds are busy building nests.
The grass is as green as four-leaf clovers,
Making this season the very best!

    I really liked the beginning of this poem... The first line drew me in to read this very excellent piece of writing :D. The words you used were very well picked, but one thing I would change:

    Are just the beginning is this very sort.

    In this line, you should change the wording, because it doesn't really make sense...

    Other than that, I wouldn't change anything, keep it up, 5/5

    "One can hope for a single thing,
    That�s for spring to ring and sing its melody." - Such a charming line.

    Reading this nature poem enchants me. It was simply delightful to read! Additional props for the excellent use of poetical devices, intentionally or unintentionally done, such as the internal rhymes in the aforementioned lines, similes, alliteration and etc. What's more interesting to note is that the sensations of hope, joy, and fascination keyed in to the "essence of spring" are perfectly apparent throughout. It is the emotions which I invariably take notice because methinks that they are heartfelt and sincere...

    Wonderful poem, as always, m'dear! Keep on writing, hun! Love, Debbie
