This has lovely images described. It's sad how our minds get filled with the negative violent images even in the midst of such beauty. This concept brings me to a news issue where some possibly mentally ill man was tryoing to wash off the beautiful chalk art a little girl did. A couple of the things she wrote among lovely art was Black Lives Matter. That seemed to have sent this man reeling. This is why I rarely watch the news or spend anytime on these matters of fb. It seems everything has become political.

    Thank you so much, Liz, for your review -- yes, we got rid of cable a few months ago and found it was much easier to smile... ;) :) :) Find your heart where you are and let it thrive! ;) Yvette

What a clever poem! Poetic language, even rhyme make this a most charming read, and the imagery evoked is a delight. I will be very surprised if this is not this contest's winning entry. :))

You have created a unique and creative poem. I like the different colors you use, like sidewalk chalk. "Curious those smiling flowers", an image I can see on the sidewalk. You have written a vivid acrostic poem.

Hello,
This is a very creative poem about the characteristics of a sidewalk. I remember playing hopscotch on our sidewalk. Also, I remember drawing the sidewalk sketch to play the game. This is a very creative acrostic of the words, sidewalk chalk. This is a nice line, "Lil' hands become grand architects... Kindergarten visionaries!" Well done. I love how you used the colors to emphasize various words. Happy future writing:-)

A very well-written Acrostic about sidewalk chalk that can make great artists with amazing imagination from little children when they are getting from the freedom to express themselves.

    Thank you for your review and the catch on rainbow (laves is correct). Always great to get your input.

You brought the colour here of the chalks and the creations on the pavements. A whimsical write filled with your imagination. I so enjoyed this piece. I stumbled on the meter on this line and suggest you take out the word green.

Have a laugh at (green) dogs with wings.

Love Dolly x
