Oh, I love this. The vision of the beautiful ballerinas, the pink and white tears that fall to the ground. Wonderful visuals of tree and emotion.

Yes, the memories do remain, Val, all year until the next spring ... I look out of my window and I see the buds swelling and threatening to open on the four here in the centre of this little square. Nicely done. Love the illustration. Pat.

Comment from Shirley B
This is a lovely poem. The rhyme aamd meter are great. We don't have cherry trees trees around here. It is too hot and dry. The imagery in your poem is wonderful. Best of luck in the contest, Shirley

Flower blossoms heralds the coming of Spring. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words. There is very good imagery and descriptive scheme.

Comment from BothePo8
Here's how I would write this lovely poem so that it is a little smoother:
Cherry blossoms dancing
Ballerinas pink and white
Hopping, leaping, prancing
Springs visual delight
The Dancers time is brief
Petals floating to the ground
Pink and white, tears of grief
Now falling without sound
Now both stanzas have a 6/7/6/6/ meter pattern
My best wishes to you, Bo

Not sure what bumps you speak of Bo?

Count the syllables in each line and in each stanza and see if they are the same....If not, there usually is a rhythm problem. My poems are pretty rhythmic. If you have the time, it might help to check one of mine for comparison. Just a thought....Bo

You captured this cherry blossom tree beautifully and with emotion. It flowed beautifully and with wonderful word choice. Good luck with the entry :)
