Hello Joan, this is a very good free form poem that covers the seasons as well as incorporating all the onomotopoeia required by the club entry. The 'blink of an eye' is a good one. Also 'tick of a clock', Well thought out and a good read. Warm regards Dorothy x

This is exemplary free verse poetry. It covers the different seasons well with illustrations that are sparse and creative. There is definitely a pattern of rhythm to this. It flows well and doesn't need to rhyme to get the point across. I like the phrase, "A Kodachrome world becomes black and white." I like the "tick" and the "tock" which symmetrically works well. Each stanza starts with a catchy phrase, "In a snap of a finger" and then, "In the blink of an eye," etc. There is shape and a formula to it and I find it easy to follow. Enjoyable to read and well written.
Take care, Jesse

A very well-written free verse poem with the use of onomatopoeia. Each season has its own unique sounds that we can identify with the season's characteristics.

Wow! I think this is my favorite of all your poems, Joan! I love your great use of alliteration, onomatopoeia and the metaphorical description of the effect of time and nature on human life.

Nice use of onomotopoeia. I especially like the theme of natures symphony of sounds. Then they rewind and replay. I never thought about it, but that's pretty accurate about nature, so good insight. Good job!

Hello Dragon, What a great job using all of that Onomatopoeia... I'm not sure I could have thought of them all! I had a fun time reading all of your nature sounds which will come around again, and again, and again... :)

I like your poem very much! It's well written and flows well.
Seasons change quickly. I love the way you start each stanza with a blink of an eye snap of the finger.
