Connie Marcum Wong Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Spring Love

Spring Love

Willow
And the Cherry
Now know,

In time
Their love will grow
Sublime.

Limbs touch,
Her petals fall.
They clutch.

Andrea Dietrich May 6, 2021 at 3:18 PM wow this is so nice. I have a cherry willow tree, Connie. but over time, it transformed to mostly willow and we hardly ever see the pink part any more.

Andrea Dietrich April 24, 2021 at 4:12 PM wow this is REALLY good. I do not even remember if this contest closed but it sure does deserve a win, dear. Great imagery! Connie Marcum Wong April 24, 2021 at 7:18 PM Thank you Andrea. 13 of us got first place and your poem is at the top where I am used to seeing it. Emily‘s form is a bit of a challenge because of the brevity and the syllable count but I thought everyone really did great. Blessings xxoo

Susan Woodrow April 24, 2021 at 9:00 AM this was lovely! Not too long ago I was working in the San Joaquin delta and had to stop and take a pic of a blooming cherry by a willow on the river bank...now I read this and I'm going wow again with the same picture but with deeper beauty added to it this time!! :) Connie Marcum Wong April 24, 2021 at 11:40 AM Looking at these two trees so close together, they just gave me a sense of romance, he a Willow and she a cherry. I’m very pleased that you liked my poem Susan. Thank you for your lovely comment. Blessings xxoo

Alexis Y. April 24, 2021 at 2:50 AM Hi Connie, I echo what Jo said; you've penned stunning write describing the picture. Best wishes in the contest. Have a great day:-) Alexis Alexis Y. April 24, 2021 at 12:27 PM I edited it now. You're right; thanks for sharing the new form with us:-)Alexis Connie Marcum Wong April 24, 2021 at 4:26 AM Thank you very much Alexis. This is not a haiku however, it is a newer form I have never tried. The brief syllable count and rhyme make it a challenge. I am off to get some sleep now. You have a great weekend my friend. Blessings xxoo

Victor Buhagiar April 24, 2021 at 1:54 AM Lovely picture and great interpretation. Hugs. Connie Marcum Wong April 24, 2021 at 2:02 AM Thank you Victor. I had to hurry as his contest was about to close. I think the Willow and the Cherry make a lovely couple of trees. (smile) hugs, Connie xxoo

Joanna Daniel April 24, 2021 at 1:35 AM What a beautiful interpretation of the picture, Connie! I too chose the same one, but mine is way too simple.. Connie Marcum Wong April 24, 2021 at 2:01 AM Oh I don't think so at all Jo. I just read yours and I love it! Thank you for the encouraging words. hugs, Connie xxoo
