Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted

I love how you describe the tree and also the human characteristics that makes it so real :'she curtsies to the wind.In spring she sports her crinkled blooms,
a feathered flounce of crepe
set dancing like the sea-tossed spume
that billows round the cape,"
Thank you fro sharing and good luck with your writings.

Once again, a witty and whimsical delight in flawless rhythm and rhyme with delightfully fresh and clever imagery. I shouldn't bother retyping this each time--I shall create a document file for you so I can paste the kudos. Cheers. LIZ

    Ha! Ha! A little judicious cut-and-paste never when astray.
    Thank you for this splendid comment and the sixth star.
    I'm not sure that the rhyme is entirely flawless, but I am willing to defend its imperfections and the awful pun.
    All good wishes, Tony
