That's a great attitude. Violets can be invasive and spread easily but they are pleasant and happy flowers otherwise so I can see that just smiling would be best and not fret about the lawn. Best wishes in the contest!

IT's amazing how something as small as a flower in a field can make you smile. Let along a bunch of them standing proudly in the warmth of the sun.

Good job with the prompt. Nice rhythm throughout. The picture choice is perfect. We have Jacaranda trees here and in the spring when they bloom the trees and the lawns below are a delightful lavender purple.

These violets that "spray across the lawn" are usually weeds and almost impossible to control. Yet when they bloom, I smile too. Nicely conveyed in only 11 syllables. Rod

It is true, that there are a lot of simple things in life that give us a great deal of pleasure and I think you have mentioned one of them in your poem. I wish you luck in the contest, and I wish you well.

I love violets. Your contest entry is in good form, Mystery Writer. The syllables are correct, the alliteration of 's' works, and the message that beautiful flowers bring a smile to you is great. I would add some kind of violet color and a picture.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan
