Outside the city where lush Lovely pomegranates grow The spring has sprung and flowers show Birds rear their young in tones hushed The lady weeps in a silent Strain, love has left a broken heart In pain, where the pomegranates start To bloom once again, so vibrant Hush my love your chance to shine bright Slipped in on a cloud silver lined A knight so good and deeply kind Caught your tears throughout the long night He sprinkles them upon the air Pomegranate bushes sprang up Their juice forever fill your cup Arise love, his maiden fair Receive his love, freed from despair Outside the city, in rural Terrain. a perfect scene ~mural Where pomegranates grow with flair Inspired by Julia Ward contest A First Line Prompt Written: May 01, 2016 First stanza of "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud" Written by: William Wordsworth Which is called Lyric Poetry "I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze."

I like your pomegranate poem. My late father loved Wordsworth - he also set Tennyson - and yes some of my poems to music. There is a short Israeli poetry movie you might want to check out - it is by an Israeli poetess - she made a short film which you can see on the internet - you would probably like it.

Beautiful Longfellow is also one of my fave poets. Very well done and a fine place to look for inspiration.
