This is a fine entry for the contest. The image is lovely, as is your poem. You've used good form here. Rhyming is very good, too. I like how all the second and fourth lines have the same end rhyme sound and the repetition of "cause to celebrate." Marilyn

Nice flow and rhythm. Great imagery, painting a clear picture for the reader. Inspires hope having seen plenty of long winters. The picture fits very well with the poem.

You and I have likely seen too many long winters. Thank you for sharing "Spring's Cause to Celebrate" and your very kind praise.

I will still take the seasons changing over just hot year round. I also liked the different style, I haven't tried that rhyme pattern/scheme yet.

Comment from Poetic Friend
That's a challenging contest because we feel compelled to use those word when writing bout spring. The innovation comes in avoiding using those words. The poet must paint the scenery with very descriptive imagery, which you have achieved in this poem.
I saw the dingy remnants of winter and the vibrant color of spring in this well-written poem.
Good luck in the contest. Have a wonderful week. :)

A very well-written poem about Spring. Without using the common words that describe Spring, I think you done a great job to bring spring to the reader on A different tray.
