I enjoyed reading your 575 contest entry, Rod. Good job on its style. Your picture choice is beautiful. Your words plus that picture make an awesome poem. Those words are descriptive even if no picture had been included. Thanks for sharing. Jan

This is so beautiful! I love the picture you painted with these words: 'cherry trees smothered in bees and scented blossoms'. I think the purple font was a good touch, too. Subtle spring color.
This is a great contest entry :)

Ciao Mystery poet , I just gave you your first of many ,I hope ,votes.

The colour and scent of blossom is is a gift for our senses.

I love Autumn with its reds oranges and yellows and its melancholic tone.

Spring is a lively season instead with bees buzzing and birds singing in the hope to attract a mate.

Christmas without snow is sad but by the end of February most people are dreaming of Spring and outdoor life .


Your poem put a smile on my face ...I hope you do well in the contest.

Cherry trees always say spring to me. This photo is so gorgeous. You have brought a breath of hope to these remaining cold weeks. Nothing is as joyful as the hope that we carry in our hearts. You have done a wonderful job here and I loved reading it!

Your poem is a pleasant spring surprise,
though I could use a real one outside my window.
Excellent imagery and nice use of alliteration
Perfect picture to match
Well done
Best wishes in the contest
