But with the strangest wonder in our sight, it changed from crimson red to purest white, adorned like some new bride about to wed pure milky branches brimming from her head. 4/20/20 for Gregory Barden''s Rithimus Divisa 3 Poetry Contest From the poem Early Spring,written 4/8/18

Janis, congratulations. The bridal reference is so creative and visual - a beautiful metaphor for the cherry trees in blossom.

Your new poem stands well on its own Janis. I like the title. A lovely poem taken from a wonderful write.

A sincere congratulations on your 5th Place win in the Rithimus Divisa 3 Poetry Contest, Janis - this was such a tough one to judge, with so many wonderful writes, that it came down to small things in the end. Many kind thanks for submitting, and especially for your patience - this is a gem to be proud of! Blessings, My Friend! - the bard (I can't believe this is the first comment - a travesty!)
