Spring Flowers contest

Blog Posted by Shadow Hamilton: 4/11/2016 4:10:00 PM

There seems to be some misunderstandings by the poems so far entered.Each line should start with the name of a spring flower or at least be about a spring flower so use their names in each line. Hugs

use Latin for X and the line does not have to start with the flower. As long as it is included within the line. hugs

oh, I didn't see that small print in the contest. My poem has to be pulled. I didn't see the every line has to start with a flower and I doubt I can find one for each letter. Joyce

Oh, you DO want each line starting with a flower? I searched the internet for an X flower name and the one I found grows only in summer, not in spring. What should I do about that one? I have not even started the poem. I was just researching to see if there would be enough flowers to name for each letter of the alphabet. is it possible we can use an adjective to describe a flower for which there is not a corresponding letter? Or maybe use that summer flower name as one that is coming soon after spring? I'll check back here in the morning to see what you say about this.
