Richly sensuous write. Living in the moment is happiness if only we humans could master this art. This poem is a call to positiveness. Spring is transient but let's enjoy while it is here. And yes, let the Nature thrive through our goodness. So beautifully written. Full of green thoughts. The reader can feel the spring in this poem n rejoice in its beauty as one would relish the leafy trees n colorful blossoms. A huge 10.
Yes, Help me to open my senses! somebody, help me! ! ! I fail when tried to do it myself, :)
STORY OF SPRING DOES NOT STOP. SPRING IS LOVABLE. Morning light of spring brings fortune. A transient but beautiful season ensues for all to love and enjoy. Nature becomes graceful and we feel nature well during spring season. A powerful imagery is drawn in this poem.10
Thanks for reading my poem so thoroughly. Imagery was my goal, but I also wanted to convey the THOUGHT OF SPRING, that is, the abstract experience that doesn't depend upon immediate experience.
Now! I summon you to awake from this of sleep of thought that has closed your senses. I bid you to open your senses. Before you looms the Portal of Spring, a huge tree that spreads its yellow-green leaves into the yellow-green light. Just walk under its canopy and breathe freely. Cross this Portal in an instant and step into your happiness! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Ahhhhhhhhhhh, thank you for this revelry of the senses at the closing of this thought-provoking poem because, you see, it has been a long cold and gray winter and sporing is springing all over itself outside my window and I keep dashing out every few minutes and cleaning a flower pot or putting cushions out on the chairs or dipping angels and squirrels and rabbits and frogs and zebras and elephants into buckets of water cuz tomorrow we plant flowers and there is the portal of Spring! Thank you, Daniel, your call to Spring could not be ignored. ..... outside I go......
Ahhhhh, this is wonderful, Susan, my poem inspires the Outdoor Susan to accelerate the spring season with gardening. This is not the intellectual or academic experience of poetry but the opening of the senses, becoming a force within spring, doing nature's work alongside her.
