Ode To Early Flowers
As early flowers blush and bloom
The weary hearts long for a roam
Away from where once lived the gloom
As early flowers blush and bloom
I rush with thrush out there to loom
And bring the warmth back up to home
Where early flowers blush and bloom
Where weary hearts long for a roam

Yes...
there certainly is something to be said for the smell of fresh flowers! It makes the whole house smell like Spring! Happy Spring to you! I like the simplicity of this one! ~ Geez.

dear Rula,
I love the Lilac bushes that we have in our yard. in spring, they bloom and we cut some to have in the house, leaving the rest for the neighbors to enjoy. we have the wrong kind of soil for tulips. I much enjoyed your poem. it is always good to see/read you!

Ode to Early Flowers
Hello, Rula!
A beautiful ode! I know you like tight rhyme and rhythm, and this is perfect! Eight lines with eight meters each. Reading your poem helps get me through these cold, dark days. So lovely.
Thank you!

Dear Lavender
So kind of you to give my work your time. It adds to my plaure to know that you like it. Unfortunately, I found out that it needs to be 12 lines at least, so I decided to withdraw from the contest.
Thank you again dear.

Thank you for
the offer sir Geezer. I thought about it, unfortunately the Triolet is a very strict form of ONLY eight lines with the 1st,4th and 7th are repeated as well as 2nd and 8th.
Again appreciate your time.
Thank you

Hi, Rula,
In its unique form, it is a remarkable poem. You are so clever with different types of structured poetry, I would imagine there is another form that could express your message as lovely!

minor point from me
you may like to replace
''home and roam''
as the stress throughout
is on loom boom....
doom fume....
may c tomb womb or google for more

Thank you Lovedly
for the suggestion.
As I clarified to sir Geezer this is a strict form with
the rhyme scheme ABaAabAB, where capital letters are representing the repeated lines.
Again thank you for your time. Much appreciate it.

This is great
I can smell the ozone on the spring air. Here the Crocus and hyacinths are first up but it’s when the daffodils and tulips pop that I live for. I’m not a fan of winter.
