Outside my living room window, May 6, 2022

May fashions days it will unveil; and there exists one which I hail. For me, it stands out from the rest- for proof May came- it is the best. Outside my window, grows a tree that blooms each year- now fifty-three. When dogwood blossoms open wide- May bares her beauty- amplified.

I love how you write so perfectly with your sentence structure and all other elements such as punctuation, meter and of course, the message. I too have a tree that blossoms almost always on the exact same day each year (only in April) so I really related to this one. Congrats on a great placement in my contest.

Beautifully written as always,Sandra. You raised a smile with your wonderful portrayal. I hope the scent is as wonderful as the tree's appearance.
