An unusual but very effective
use of the juxtaposition of
the earth and planting of bulbs
to that of a man and a woman
meeting and the seeds of romance
being planted by perhaps a glance
and then see what will bloom out
of that togetherness.
Artistically presented poem
for this contest.
Well done and good luck

    Thank you for seeing the duality of this piece. Definitely a shared love for gardening and the ongoing planting needed for an everlasting romance. And thank you for your very generous review and kind words. With regards, Sue

Your word painting really enlightened the art which set off this delightful piece. Love spring and the blooming bulbs it brings.

Ummm... a very subtle little poem... but yes, there is something about planting bulbs together that suggests a shared future. I like it. Hope you are planting the bulbs for many happy years.

    Hoping it isn't too subtle. 15 words is very challenging to make a metaphor. But, you honed in on it. Thank you so much for your very kind review and comments. With regards, Sue

Ah, the poem of a loving gardener tending the flowers. My mom plants flowers everywhere when the weather permits too. Great poem, with anticipation of Spring. Thanks for sharing!
