I think this is a good entry for the Use These Words writing prompt.
This lovely verse uses the required words smoothly.
Well done and I wish you good luck with the contest.

You did a great job with your poem, Mystery Author. The required words fit is seamlessly. I like how you used bellow as what the frogs did. Your picture is beautiful. Your poem is great at remembering the good things before the corona virus. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Respectfully, Jan

I like how you've used those words. Good childhood memories up to our current world situation. I like how you've intermeshed the two. Thanks for sharing this inspirational and well written work. Well done!

Yes very interesting angle on the Use these words - recalling comforting memories from the past and abiding there for a little respite from our present topsy turvy world

Comment from thaities, Rebecca V.
Old childhood memories can be places of safety we can retreat to in harsh times. Today there few safe places other than our home. It is better to dream of days gone by and pray they return.

Comment from Ogden
That's an adroit response to the "Use These Words" contest. You have created a poem-full of faux pleasant memories with meter that flows beautifully (with one anomaly. The meter in the final line is a little clunky.)
(You can't expect to be perfect all the time.)

Hello
A good poem for the contest. A strange bunch of words put together in good use.
With many now in isolation,
this poem gives a sense of positive memory...
well done images

Four prompted words are used well, this poem tells and help you remember the soft summer rain and give you past comforts; wish this entry win the contest.

Lovely, flows unforced in rhythm and rhyme. Fresh imagery: icicles/chandeliers...lampshade making shapes...breath turning to steam...Well done. Cheers. LIZ
