Nicely done. It brings me back to recess time with the teacher watching us from far. Your poem is full of life and speaks greatly of youth and childhood. Bravo!

This poem has captured the joyful freedom of children at play, and it is refreshing to see the positive aspects of happiness, unity and togetherness as they play and relax, enjoying each other's company. Well written.

This Nonet piece has a lovely uplifting theme and tone. The innocence of children playing in the fresh spring air is depicted effectively with the rich use of imagery. The vibrant background color and artwork accompanying the piece is icing on the cake. Great job!

This is a charming nonet, Dove. What could be more delightful than watching children at play. Reading this made me smile.. The conclusion reminded me of last summer. My grandson would collect bumblebees from the honeysuckle hedge. With his fingers! They were probably too full of nectar to sting.

Best of luck in the contest.

Stay safe healthy and blessed

Julia

Your nonet reads well, Dove. The syllable count is correct per line. Your word choices are descriptive. I could see the kids playing on their Spring Break. The art fits perfectly.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

Children are the most fascinating creatures, I'm so happy after being blessed with two daughters, they, in turn have blessed with five grandchildren, whom I have watched with delight grow in the love and nurture of their parents and God. (And we've helped too! Beautifully written nonet, good luck, blessings Roy

    Dear Roy, thank you for your comments and review, I'm so glad you've been blessed with children and grandchildren. I lost my toddler son to the state at the age of 2, so I transfer all my affection and love to other children. Dove
