First, a tip of the hat to you for your wonderful monorhyme stanzas. (I've always found these difficult to write!)
There is a lightness of your "step" here...a twinkling ripple of a springlike pond that promises there will be blossoms and resurrections anew...
You've masterfully chosen a theme that is universal... Very well done.

This is a very interesting write for your sixth poem in the month of April. Your rhyming is good. The seasons are very well done and I enjoyed listening to it. Patricia.

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Your nature poem read well, JLR. I enjoyed reading it.
I liked the monorhyme within each verse. Those verses
were descriptive about the surrounding nature things.
I could imagine them as I read. I liked the second verse
the best. Was there a reason to separate the 4th line from
the other3 in the second verse?
Thanks for sharing, Jan

Jan, thank you for your supportive comments. I am especially grateful to you pointing out the line unintended line break.
Comment from Gloria ....
This is another good one, J. I think the use of mono-rhyme within each stanza is effective in joining a thought and image.
And as alas you make your retreat.
Very good and a pleasure to read and review. :))

Comment from Wendy G
That's a nice suite of mono-rhymed quatrins. Reality sets in with the fourth stanza, after the peace and serenity of the first ones. Wanting to linger in nature with its emerging freshness and beauty is understandable - nice appeal to sense of sound as well as sight.
Well done.

Comment from Verna Cole Mitchell
I think this is my favorite so far of the nature poems! So many images and sounds to bring forth spring! The third stanza, in particular, is exceptional! "Life leans into the sun in style!" --marvelous!

This is a great effort Jim, the fact that you've committed to this gargantuan task of writing a poem a day for this month is not only a great endeavour, but a worthy embarkation. Well done, blessings Roy
Suggestion: it sounds like a great epistle.

Comment from Jasmine Girl
What a beautiful poem about the precious spring that is still not here yet. But it will come next week. I like how you combine the beautiful of the spring with happy life. It's a season of hope.
Well done.

Loved your mono-rhymed quatrains! They are full of alliteration and consonance, and internal rhymes. My favorite stanza was:
"Meadowlarks warble and whistle
flying around the prickly thistle,
and sound like a penny whistle,
as the frogs croak their dismissal."
