Spring Is Here

spring is here 
at last at last 
wind blowing clouds 
like gossamer glass 
  
smells fill the air 
the flowers are calling 
bees making honey 
with love and pollen 
  
watching dandilions 
is a glorious affair 
while slinging their fluff 
all thru the air 
  
It seems I'm not 
the only one 
to jump with joy 
here comes the sun 
  
I hop and skip 
accross a lawn 
I twirl around 
till I have fallen 
  
I dance a happy 
springtime dance 
lay on the grass 
where sprinklers splash 
  
a sweet little inchworm 
crosses my toe 
take your time little one 
just go with the flow 
  
my spring my spring 
is here for now 
the sun stands up 
to take a bow

Shaunda, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@

I actually don't mind constructive criticism. I have an 8th grade education which has limited me quite a bit. Until recently, I thought all poetry had to rhyme except for haiku, since haiku and rhyming are the only type of poetry I remember from school. And those my dear, are my poetic skills. You have been so kind. I would love to read your works. The contest page for Spring?
