Spring is Here

Author's Note: As my non-fiction response, my inspiration is on nature.  I found a picture on the National Geographic website and I decided to write a poem of it.  In my poem, I am doing my best to include syntactic devices, semantic devices, and patterns.  Please leave me feedback.


Grass just turned green
From the morning dew
Flowers just blossomed
Of pink and blue

Snow has gone
Rain has come
Frigid cold has left
Warmth has shown

The sun will shine
The birds will sing
The wind will blow
So peacefully

Above
Clouds, wispy as cotton candy
Below
Fields, sway like ocean waves

For a while you just stand
Looking at the gift of nature
Color
Air
Life

Simply,
Flowers in the field
And sun in the sky
Prove that color is needed
Prove that life exists
Prove that spring is here

  1. I this is a very good poem about spring. I think you really did the initial repeating patterned well in it. Nice Job!

  2. I was sad to hear this poem, not because i didn't like it because we don't have spring here (yet!)
