Being a free verse poet all my life, here is my attempt at a Villanelle.  Next time I will dare to write a terzanelle!!!

Whispers Listen to the whispers in the winds, In the rolling waves of the wildflower on the hills, Where poppies dance and flaunt their golden colors. Hear the musical chirp of the little birds, Enjoying the vast yellow mustard fields, Listen to the whispers in the winds, Spring has arrived with flowers in vivid colors, Hummingbird forever whispers and hovers on the daffodils, Where poppies dance and flaunt their golden colors. The delicate pink lily magnolia scatters her petals in the winds, It is a red petal beauty bestowed on trees and land, Listen to the whispers in the winds. The charming Monarch butterfly, adorned with painted wings, kissing flowers, She must be whispering her silent music on milkweed wildflower in spring, Where poppies dance and flaunt their golden colors. All the spring splendor does not only show in day lights, Hear the nightingale serenade her music on cherry blossoms trees in moonlit starry nights, Listen to the whispers in the winds, Where poppies dance and flaunt their golden colors.
