Notes About The Poem

At Spring Equinox

At winter’s departure - though I feel glad - I must remember that like human beings, Mother Nature needs a rest from her growing season; she will reawaken at spring equinox, shaking off her pretty white lace blanket. For the vernal season, Mother Nature dons her most beautiful green dresses. From month to month I see her change adornments - in March subtle; In April and May, though, she’s her fanciest as colorful buds peek out from her gown! March 29, 2016 for the Celebration Contest of Shadow Hamilton

Drown in flowers wearing a beautiful gown in the shape of a crown and soft like pillow made out of down.

You left out the myriad shades of Autumn. I like the twin, reversed etheree form....

Beautiful depiction of mother nature, buds peek out from under her gown, just so lovely.

How pretty, the white lace blanket. I think you did well with this Celebration poem, and a good idea to make Mother Nature change her dress (in Idaho she's a bit insane, always changing her clothes midday, when none sees it coming) ... best of luck, Andrea!

Yep! She's at her best and sweetest in the springtime. You bring her to life nicely. Love, daver
