This work has reached the exceptional level

You always impress with your mastery of language and commitment to each theme...

The imagery of nature here is as sensory as can be.

The underlying metaphor that I perceive is that love, like the seasons, brings both peace and challenges.

"You are the sun- you rise
and fall with rain; you shift
like wind-

the one and only
poem
that never ends."

That is the eternal vow!

Extraordinary free verse!

Karenina

This was a beautiful piece, Jessica describing the different seasons, my favourite was the winter stanza with the snow falling, I thought you wrote this really well. An excellent piece, I enjoyed reading it.

This has some really beautiful lines. Just love:
You are the pulse,
beneath the ground, the spark,
that stirs the phrase.
those three lines. they flow so graciously together, creating a vivid image. Gee, I wish I had written that.
Fear not, poems this good never end.

I like the way you say you wrote through every season. To record your seasonal experiences and to put your feelings down in writing is a great testament. Beautifully written. Gretchen

A poem that touched me, I especially like this line: " And ripples through
my body to the page." This speaks to me of being inspired by a loved one. Well done.

Dear Jess!
How I appreciate exceptionally well-crafted free verse poetic offerings... such as yours!
Yes! Yours is exceptional in both form and message. Alas! I am already out of six stars but know that your offering is more than deserving.
I love how you meld emotions with nature, seasons, flowers.

Thank you for sharing!
fondly,

Like the hands on a clock, the cycle of the seasons continues to go round and round, changing but never-ending. It's a beautiful poem, and your choice of words is delightful. I always love what you write and wish I had the skills. The thoughts of a love one being the eternity you seek I think is an awesome ending.
Smiles, Carol

Hi Jessica,
I like that each stanza of the free verse tells of a new season. You see that these changes will never end until the sun stops rising and setting. So never ending in our minds
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a wonderful week.
Joan
