I really liked your alliterative lines of :
"with wind's whispering whoosh
and whipped whistling boughs"
and your use of onomatopoeia in the "whoosh" !
These days the wind carries pollen and we most likely to be sneezing!

A womans flowing hair is a wonderful sight, it is peace, calm, alluring, and captivating all at once, love your alliteration as you combine this beauty with that of nature, very well written and presented****kahpot

Stand aside, Alliteration Queen, Karen Cherry - MariVal has arrived! There are some lovely onomatopoeic and alliterative sounds here, capturing and echoing the advent of spring. I wondered if it would be better with the past participle 'woven' in the first line? An excellent, refreshing verse! Take care Debbie

A lovely Gogyohka poem with great alliteration. Nice personification of Spring as a woman. I liked the entire presentation. Thank you for sharing.

Another fine poem, Gypsy,....and if my hair was weaved into a season, it'd be winter, because nothing grows and my bald head get to be freezing, and, well I don't like it!

Really love the presentation. This is beautiful to read and to look at. All of this really enhances the poem. Giving it a light airy feel that matches the theme perfectly. It's a lovely moment captured in just a few lines. Keep up the great work!
