Your well-written poem paints a vivid picture of one at peace, enjoying the moment while being entertained and awed by outdoor scenes.

Comment from Elizabeth Daniels
Sounds like a peaceful way to start the day. One question...I don't mean to be picky, but I am wondering when you mowed...in the dark? Beautiful poem, my pickiness aside. Elizabeth Daniels.

I read it again...makes much more sense. lol I wrote a manuscript for a novel a couple years ago. It is amazing how after editing and rewriting three times how things like that jump off the page at you. It really was an appealing poem.

This is another well done write especially for this contest. Obvious word-smithing here which I cherish so much. I specially like the use of 'shepherding' in the second to the last line.Good work.

Something I've always appreciated about your poetry is your eye for details. It's as if you've invited us to experience the moment with you.
If I had a six it would be yours. I admire your work.

watch my grass grow greener
till next week's mow

shepherding his harem into the future
This poetry transports the reader to tranquil
thoughts. Thank You for your creation.

This piece grabbed my attention from the beginning and held it to the end. This is a good read that make the imagination work. The words gave life to the photo and this piece flowed well despite no rhyming. Good job.

Comment from Laureen Bennett
A wonderfully written and very descriptive free verse poetry style done so well! I love the "open door" image spoken about here and the "worn, over-stuffed, and comfy" introductory line that seems to invite the welcomed guest, the reader, in to sit and ponder the poetry! Thanks for sharing this lovely piece of poetry with us!

Ahhh, how beautiful this is! How I love your descriptive creations. I sat there, beside you, in your overstuffed chair, listening to the palm trees rustling, watching the orchid horizon and smelling the newly mown grass...Ahhh, Hawaii, take me away! Love traveling with you as you make it so easy. Just perfectly written. Betty

it must be nice. having just entered a winter poem, this piece makes me envious. again, great use of language and word play. particularly like " orchid sky intricately latticed". you really deliver a sense of the tropics.
