This is a very well written Acrostic poem, June.
The way time flies anymore it won't be long until you will see those lovely bulbs poking their heads through the soil to welcome the warm sun. Good job. Nancy:)

This is a nice acrostic poem reminding us that beneath those layers of snow the bulbs that bring the blues of summer are still sleeping and will shoot up again and astound us with their beauty.

A very well-written Acrostic about longing for summer to come soon when the magic of winter snow start to disappear the only thing that can cheer us up is some summer warmth.

I may be a little biased but I absolutely love this poem and the picture you chose because I absolutely despise winter. You described winter or with really harsh wording Which I believe is very fitting of the cold nippy air and the awful icy roads

Irises! One of my favorite bulb flowers and blue is so lovely in a flower. Enjoyed your acrostic poem and imagining the life in the bulbs which will one day look "stunning in their satin gowns."

Hello June!
You have created not only an excellent acrostic, but you have also described iris beautifully with their "satin gowns." Iris were my mother's favorite spring flowers, and I sense they are your as well.
You know, I truly admired your ability to pen an acrostic; I am a failure at this poetic form ... or at least I have convinced myself that I am! :)

Thank you for sharing!

    I do find acrostics difficult. I was just glad this one made sense! And I do love irises...

    Glad you enjoyed the imagery in this acrostic. I don't find this format easy to use - but wanted to focus on spring. And this is what I came up with!
