The challenge is to create some mystery out of the beauty of your poetry. Your sparse three lines perhaps lack this element of beauty. In prose we need some fine lines. In poetry, every line must be fine.-Ekim777

This sounds so beautiful. Tulips in bloom reveal the beauty of spring. When I had my home, I always had tulips in my flower garden. I miss that garden because now I live in a senior complex with any space to plant tulips, roses and daffodils.

This is an excellent contest entry with a beautiful photo of these tulips to enhance your line poem. I wish you good luck in this contest.

Happy Easter to you and yours.

Wonderful with great imagery created in so few lines. Tulips are one of my favorite flowers. At the moment they are in full flower here. Good luck in the contest. All the best. Ulla

I like the picture of the flower blooming. The words were good as well. I find it hard reviewing these short poems but you seem to have covered all the bases with this poem. Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing.

I have heard of this, but never seen it...must be a sight to behold. Sometimes when something beautiful is seen, time stops and one wonders what part one plays in the beauty of being. Its then we realize how insignificant we really are in comparison with the rest of nature.

Best wishes and good luck in the competition.

Wow, five miles of lanes packed with tulips, what a sight to behold indeed. As well as the rose I think the tulip is up there as far as an absolute favourite goes...such a graceful slender flower, yet strong enough to hold it's own. Fields of these flowers are quite intoxicating to look at...your poem summed up the feeling they give off...your festival was certainly heaven's scent! Well done.
Cheers P

You chose your words well here and that is the purpose of the lune. A picture unfolds and entices the reader in to the images you paint. It must be quite the sight. It sounds unreal almost, lanes of tulips stretching out as far as the eye can see. WOW. Great entry. I think this is what the judges will be looking for. mikey

I just love flowers farms with lanes of color and such a beautiful scent in the air. The sure sign that spring is in the air. Good luck with the contest, cheers, judester
