'Dandelions' work for me. My experience with poetry is minimal. But, I am developing a taste for it. And a Lune Poem is interesting. To me, a 'Lune' has to do with contemplation. I certainly liked yours. Best wishes.

To the author of Springtime Flowers. I don't know where you live, but there won't be any daffodils dancing in my wind for a long time. It snowed again today in Michigan!! BUT, the lovely little poem and springtime photo art is encouraging to me. Carole

Ha! Sorry you are still in the winter mode. Here in the South, spring is teasing us with warmer days but still really cool nights. The daffodils are brave. 8-)

Beautiful description, a lot of emotion in few words, and nice memories of your mom honored here. Good luck in the contest.

A wonderful artwork. However, your haiku is too descriptive and it thus looses the chance of creating strong feelings by poetic suggestions. Try the power of metaphor and avoid too much description especially when you must use so few words to abide by this format of the condensed haiku.

Love this poem! Daffodils are my favorite spring flower, but unfortunately, it's been so hot in California this winter, they didn't do well at all. Your poem & photo convey how this is an iconic springtime flower that evokes memories & other warm fuzzy feelings in many people. Thanks for sharing & good luck in the contest.

Sweet little lune with a lovely nostalgic feeling to it. As a Seattle transplant, I always hoped for spring when I saw those yellow blooms. I believe this little poem brings back that felling of rebirth. Nice flow also
