Perfect rhyming for this contest. And with your words you have shared a display that nature so generously gifts us with the changing seasons. The beauty is in the details and you have captured them.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I really enjoy reading your rhyming poem that painted colorful and lively pictures of all seasons. The transition from season to season is very smooth. I see many Monarch butterflies pictures on social networks nowadays.

Excellent.

This is a lovely rhyming poem that takes in all the seasons. The seasons fly by faster than they did when I was young or so it seems. I might as well try to enjoy them all.

What a beautiful image is emerging from your words:"
Soon pink skies crown the earth at dawn,

Sweet scent of lilacs fill the air.

Gold monarchs flit across the lawn,

while dragonflies perform with flair". Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

You took us through the seasons of the year from Autumn to summer and ending in June (of course because that's your name!). I love how you captured the feelings, sights, and scents of each time. Best wishes in the contest!

I enjoyed this tribute to the seasons. We get a vivid glimpse of each in respective stanzas. It's interesting that only Autumn affects the Speaker deeply because he's grieving.

This is a charming and skilfully expressed 4 stanza verse conveying in evocative detail some of the delights of the seasons. There is excellent flow and the abab rhyme is natural and unforced. This is a strong entry for the contest and I wish you luck! Debbie
