You were truly inspired. The picture is not only beautiful, but the captivating story you created in this beauty of a poem.

Hi, Treischel,
This is an excellent poem with excellent rhyme, good flow and a rhyme scheme that is followed consistently. It has an unusual eye appealing structure called a "shortie". It has nice figurative language and images. I enjoyed this poem.

Excellent!
A well-penned floral poem;
Bold visual imagery as flowers not only provide beauty but comfort stressed-out humans;
Good alliteration of "Cosmic"; "consummates" to complete the writing.

This work has reached the exceptional level

That is a nice poem. I never heard of they style before outside of Rumi, but Shortie works out well. Clearly written. Good visual imagery created. Nice work!

A well written "shortie" poem.
you have clearly paid quite a lot of attention to these lovely lilies for it flows throughout the verses.
I enjoyed the last verse as it parallels between the lily and the contemplation of life.

A very well thought out and nicely written poem that describes the beauty of Nature's garden. Your words and lines flow nicely, but I think (personally) I'd like it better without all the capitals which I think interrupt the flow.

Lovely end rhymes, as comforting as blankets in Autumn itself. I am wondering if, in line 4, you mean the joy itself is created or the joy creates the lily. Not that it essentially matters, just one of those details. I am certain your publisher will know.
