Dear Silpada,

The dew, scented by the rose, cascades to the ground. Great picture and verse.

I didn't get a pavo in Minnesota but still have a chance in Wisconsin.

Warm regards,

Winsow

Yes Silpada I like it very much for its pure simplicity and nakedness. You don't need any flamboyant imagery to express your thoughts in this poem. Your simple words have said it all. Beautiful

this is simply lovely. I don't think it needs anything else. the picture you paint of the dew drop falling gently to the ground, allowing the plant to again stand upright is full of meaning. mercy, grace, the opportunities a new day brings. well done. david

Your right it is pure simplicity. Poems like this are sometimes the best. These flowers remind me of people. Sometimes feeling down then the mood changes. Life is like that. This is short and to the point. Does not need anymore detail. Thank you for a lovely read.

Hi! I enjoy your piece of writing, it is simple, strong and creative. I like the photo because it gives to your poem color, perfume and a fresh touch of nature. I like your words and I appreciate your good use of punctuation to emphasize your work, but I notice that your poem does not have good rhymes, they are not meaningful and they disappear abruptly.

I would appreciate if you could evaluate my English, I am from Argentina and I review in order to improve my English.

Love, Aguluciana

    Thank you for the kind review. I wrote this poem 30 years ago and presented it
    unrevised out of sentiment. As far as tu ingles, es muy bien! Here are the few things I could change(but most of us in the USA love the foreign use of our language!
    1) gives to your poem color..........gives color, perfume and a fresh touoch of nature
    to your poem.
    2) I notice that your poem does not
    have good rhymes........................your poem has no rhyme scheme
    And that is it! Otherwise, very good English.

Mighty pretty. It reminds me of an old Baptist hymn that sings lyrically of the one I meet in the garden alone while the dew was still on the roses. Beautiful.

I think I agree, I like the pure simplicity of this. The only line that really pokes at me "that had bent the flowers down". I would lose the "had". I look back at much of my old stuff and my style has changed. But if I look at it as if someone else had written it, and in a way I was a different person, then it's not half bad.

    Thanks Victoria! I also pked around that line, but in the end in the spirit of
    maintaining the poems "virginity" I kept it. I was ready for a lot of criticism,
    but the poor little thing is being well received.
