Comment from RJ

Excellent

Through its skillful use of rhythm and description and good line syllable count. This poem vividly captures the essence of the picture as if being there.

I have been a big fan of fungi/mushrooms since I did a science project about them as a teenager! They are fascinating!!! Such wonderful creations come from decaying leaves etc. Well done

Thanks for your review, Wendyanne. They are indeed fascinating. And there are so many different types in my yard! I think one of the types is edible, but I'm not willing to test that theory. It's a black velvet bolete. Maybe I'll just write a poem about it.....

That is a nice thought. It makes the decaying plant almost seem nice. Excellent writing and presentation. I enjoyed reading and reviewing this.

Best wishes,

Alex

Thanks again for your reviews, Alex. I'm so glad you appreciate the irony of rotting stuff making something pretty. I thought it was funny as well.
