This is a good entry to this contest. I love your color palette. The text is a great size. The message is clearly stated and easy to understand. It would be good to have the location mentioned explained in your AN. I don't know this place.
The visual fits perfectly. Good luck in the contest.

    Thank you very much, Sandra, for your kind praise of my poem. The Cotswolds are in the English countryside.

Excellent entry for the Etheree writing prompt contest. It has a nice nature theme I like so much.

I like the presentation too. Concrete images easy to visualize.

Good syllables count and connection between lines.

Goodluck

Nice imagery here, on the weaving of a summer day.
-Great progression. Consistency from line to line, for each encapsulated image.
-Great mileage on metaphor.
-Poetry of romanticism, that paints a classic outdoor scenery in poetic form.
Very nice.

Beautiful. This read so much like a fairy tale. And the color match that you did with your font is fantastic.

I try not to use six stars on poetry, but some of you Master Poets are just far too exquisite to deny.

Wonderful work!

Now that's a beautiful description of a peaceful place in your mind. We all need some of those places inside. What a wonderfully written poem.

Good luck in the contest!
