Now I want to see those Bradford petals for myself. Picturing them to be cherryblossomesqueish (I'm sure it's a word)
Please advise so that I can correctly adjust my visual imagination of the beautiful rhythm of seasons and the passing of time viewed in fragments. 😊

I love it in the fall when it rains autumn leaves, but in a springtime wind it is a magical feeling to watch it rain pedals from the bloom. :)
I loved how you used the language dear Cherrie.
"And the whirling wind
Sets her heart to spin
Mending Winter’s corset.
So, fronds of chenille so tender,
reverberate upon the breeze,
and against the Sun
waxen pedals surrender."
The above lines. So alive, so wonderful and thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

Wonderfully poetic is this transition from winter into spring. First stanza is super, really sets this poem up Cherrie.
waxen petals surrender, that is exquisite in its delicateness. Lovely poetry.

We dress down for Summer and Nature dresses down for Winter, and I took this poem from what was bare. Thank you Chris I glad you enjoyed this one.

Norma couldn't stand them .. over and over and over ;) but I love them .. they excite me blood in the mornings .. such a familiar and welcome song.
How beautifully woven Cherrie! This is stunning poetry, Spring springs with a zest so colourfully liberating from winter's shackles, delightful poem :) Stay well :)
Your words - for me, are like a visual intercession from Nature itself as Winter acknowledges Spring's re-birth. The vestal white of snowdrops give way to glorious gold daffodils and primroses:. Your poem is a visual and similar fanfare, whether words traditional or metaphorical.
Recently have been gardening here and there, so,
both seeing and feeling ripples of energy all about the countryside. The air smells of living soil, many of the trees are budding green, life is bursting with amazing speed. Your words, whether garbed in metaphor or not, declare the All About is alive and more than well. Love every word of your poem, truly do!

I am a published poet and love poetry. After a lifetime of country living, I'm making a move back to town. I find my surroundings a great inspiration to me. I also have two books on Amazon Kindle: .. more..
