You've written a good pastoral poem, but it's somewhat marred by spelling mistakes (or what I assume to be spelling mistakes, unless you're doing some Joycian thing):
Automn = Autumn
a due = adieu (assuming you meant 'goodbye' in french)
Looks alright besides those cases. I'm not nitpicking just for fun, but if you make a lot of grammatical errors, readers will find themselves constantly correcting for them, and so they won't fully be able to appreciate your lovely poem here. Therefore, they're worth correcting I think.
It's a really optimistic and uplifting poem, and it makes me want to go outside more lol. You have done a good job conveying all the beautiful imagery of nature.

I have to admit that, while I am good with words, I am terrible at spelling them correctly. I always have a dictionary close at hand to remedy such errors before they occur, however, on this occasion, I had none for which to access and when I typed it out I was using Internet explorer, no spell check. Thank you again for the review.

Oh, this is beautiful! I love the imagery you use, I can almost feel the sunshine on my face and smell the fresh air. Definitely brings back memories of summers spent outside, running barefoot through the grass, splashing in puddles, chasing after butterflies... Beautifully written!! :)

Dance in the rain. Simply just run amuck. Why pray tell, must we get old? A question, I am affraid, none of us can answer. Thank you for the review, I really do appreciate it.
A beautiful poem. I like the use of the flowers and the good description. Your words took me to good places. I agree with the logic of the words. We need to enjoy the warm days of Summer. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

We all struggle as writers to, in so much as we try, find new idea and inspiration to write about. This piece was particularly difficult for me to write because I usually write very dark poetry, that and I am never sure how well received my poetry will be. I know my readers like the dark stuff I write, but I'm not sure about the more "Happy Happy Joy Joy", lighter stuff, so I rarely write it. My point is though, that you can't let that stop you from trying something new. Just try. I think you might surprise yourself.
A lovely poem. There are some things that have already been pointed out as others, if they are poetic license, it helps to put it in the author's note to save having to explain, and if they are not, they are listed in another review.

It has all the beautiful facades which nature has bestowed upon us.
Lovely and soothing poetry.

So very seasonal, full of love, and felt, through your words, of a real new yearning for spring, also for a fact in life maybe, don't know, just juggling with my feelings... as balls of the universe, planets, to magnetic fields, of friendship... each new phase of life, as a season we live, and live each year we get older, seems to be dancing in your words here, fantastic. You see future, past, and present, as no one else... :) thank you for your words, and words of art my sweet friend.

For I personally really saw this as a "New thing" from you, a "New beginning" and those can be so scary, but the same time so lovely! I think you should accept the fact it's being loved by me aswell as by sweet Poppy. :) Always my pleasure. You are a great writer my friend, never think otherwise ;)
