This perfectly penned senryu and beautifully directed "Pansy's Debut" of yours is effectively a sparkling autumnal broadway starring show throughout its singular pictured characterization and colourful-faced pansies. "Ladies and gentlemen, the show is on!" I am really sorry because I have no six stars left. Tony

    Thanx, Tony, for such a wonderful review on this one.... Pansy are so much my favorite simply because they are bright, bright colors in the middle of the dull browns and leaflessness of Winter! ;) Take care and have a great weekend! ;) Yvette

What a colorful surrounding for the poem with the bright background and the artwork. This is perfect for the contest and shows how beautiful fall flowers can be. I wouldn't call it a bleak show. But I guess they are a sign that Winter is coming.
Congrats on placing third in the reviewing contest. Good luck in the 5 7 5 contest.
Keep writing
Joan

Your imagery is very vivid. For those who have never seen pansies they now know how bright and colorful they are. This is kind of a fun animation projected in this poem. It would make a cute video. Your use of personification enhances the mood of enchantment. Well expressed.

Hi Yvette,
This gorgeous fall nostalgia and bright reminder and tribute
to the ever adorable and glorious pansy. Your pic alone
echo's a stage or screen director the perfect dynamic intro:
"Lights! Action! Camera!" and the pansies wordlessly, yet
glamorously take instant cue and just glow and glow with
daylight being the perfect Light! They're top billing stars indeed! Thanks for sharing this bright fall tonic served a la carte by
your ever witty, creative and uncompromised conceptions!
This was a delight treat indeed. Thanks for sharing dear (:;)
Best always, Ronni

    Thank you for your lively review for the Pansies' debut, my lady -- they are so very far and away my favorite winter flower because of all their color they have to lend to just about any setting or landscape.... their little faces just smile up at the camera and say: "look at me and smile"!! ;) :) Take care out there and, again, my apologies on the delay .... but now my grading is caught up and my lectures are done and the family issues are settled...for now! :) :) LOL! ;) Yvette

What a gorgeous display on a dreary fall day -
sweet pansy faces that cheer, come what may.
Mother Nature had plans that would cause much dismay,
but this poet paints words and sends snowflakes away.

Good luck in the contest with this delightful 5-7-5! Smashing presentation to adorn your poem, too!

I like the clever and colorful wording you've used in this. The artwork compliments your words and does put the reader on the set of a beautiful Broadway show. They are arrayed with splendor indeed! Thanks for sharing this well written offering. Well done!

This is a punchy and vibrant write filled with colour as these pansies show their colourful hues, I liked your metaphor for them, a broadway show with all its razzmatazz is included here, love Dolly x

Nice metaphor in this bright poem. Pansies are appearing everywhere and the show goes on until spring. The optics are an excellent match for your poem. Best of luck in the contest.

Blessings Julia
