You can delete some of the extra space on the bottom if you would like. Edit, advanced edit, and then go to the last line and click on delete. Your poem looks very springy!

Comment from Mario PIERRE
I am a little puzzled by this poem. While the general tone indicates a renewal of sorts, it does not feel anything like spring. Also, the ' jargon' used here doesn't seem to pertain to this type of theme. Anyway I couldn't find spuds ( potato) associated with roses, and the correct writing of ' underpants' would still rhyme with ' gents'.

Thanks, MP. The words I couldn't use were bud, new, flower, blossom, and rain. So, I used homonyms, which, as you are suggesting, are probably not going to take this poem to the winner's circle.

A wonderful frolic through your poetry. Some crafty work of wording to zero,I on the subject at hand. Kudos for your wit and obvious humor instilled in mind, body and spirit.

Thank you, Dolly, for the kind review.
Comment from Gloria ....
What fun! You have cleverly used homophones for the words not allowed, buds/spuds, new/gnu, flour/flower, reign/rain and in the process created a creative spring poem, that stretches the imagination with images of the impossible.
Wishing you great luck in the booth. :))

You have done a wonderful job with the writing prompt. It has a nice touch of humor, too. I like the play of words you used in the writing. I wish you tons of luck in the contest.

This is an usual poem for this time of the year, in the Southern Hemisphere, it's summer and in the North it's winter, but I can understand looking forward to spring. Beautifully written with a very upbeat and quirky entry in this contest, well done, blessings Roy

AS I've often said, when it comes to poetry, I wouldn't know the difference between a sonnet and sorbet. But I do enjoy reading and seeing where the forms might take you. Thanks for sharing.
