Notes About The Poem

Spring Rain

A golden sun climbs higher still
Warming the night away
Roosters voices float 'pon the breeze
Spring calls come out and play

Tomorrow a storm might come
With torrents of cold rain
Thunder and lighting flashing round
A chill in the air again

Rain that washes the gold pollen
And purifies the air
Also giving a thirst quenching drink
To buds who'll blossom fair

Spring love reach deep within the soul
Let the spring fever rise 
Don't douse the flames burning hotter
Those glowing embers apprise

Only a few golden spring days 
Then summer's fervent heat 
Rest in the arms of spring my love
Soon our journey's complete

Let's burn away the last of daylight's
Hours, embraced in love's flame
Planting memories of our fire
That will live on untamed

"Rest in the arms of spring". That is the most brilliant line I have read in a long time. It evokes such feeling and delightful visions I can hardly stand it.

This is beautifully written and you did a great job with the vivid imagery. This is an easy 7. As a very minor note: I think you want the word douse as opposed to douce. ;)

Such a beautiful description of both your love for spring and your "Spring love" that reaches into your soul. Romance is not just for teens. I'm sure this will be a big winner in the contest. It's the best I've seen! Love, Carolyn
