How lovely that you have a wonderful view outside your window and the the inspiration is evident in this wonderful nonet poem. I felt like I was there with you enjoying the view.

Well done.
Blessings

Excellent nonet form that captures a clear scene of nature. I like how you mention the ducks, squirrel and ibis. There is a good feeling as the reader sees this image of nature that is lively and reflects the clouds.

It's no secret I am a big fan of counting forms...the nonet and ethereal among them! I always think they present so well center-aligned, particularly when enhanced with a terrific photo or illustration. I'm in the frozen grips of New England right now and so especially warmed to your theme... Beautiful poem.

Well done on this nonet. Great picture of nature's beauty and good words to describe it. Like you, when I am at my computer, my back is to the windows, so I try and get up often and look out to see what is happening outside.

-Nice image and presentation, di.
-Thanks for sharing the notes.
-You wrote a very good nonet with
a good topic and excellent nature imagery.
-I like your opening with "mama muscovy"
and "hatchlings running amok."
-Then it is like a parade of nature's creatures.
-You have good descriptions of each one,
and very good closing lines.
-A very good entry; good luck!

To enjoy your natural surroundings before putting your head inside a computer is a start for you and for many who will read this post and enjoy your lovely artwork! The artwork is fantastic! I love your descriptions of the flora and fawna that surrounds your outdoor view. It is those little distractions what make a life feel more like living!
Have an enjoyable Tuesday!
Jesse

A very nicely written Nonet, depicting a nature scene, that is well paired with the image you chose. Although the animals are missing from the image they are vividly painted in thre reader's mind which is a compliment to your writing. Well done!
