gorgeous. the nature imagery is purely romantic. just as lovely as Keats or Shelley. nice semi-rhyme at the end, feels couplet-like and ends the piece with a great flow. second line is beautifully original. great work. you use this format fabulously.

Absolutely beautiful descriptions. I especially like the image of "honey-bitter thoughts", it might even be a word play/ an allusion to honeysuckle in the context of the summer landscape you depict?

Simple and light, it works well.

nacreous moon hides,

all her passions in the sky,

patiently she bides,

for her lover who's quite sly,

smoothly she pulls tides,

knowing gravity will try,

pull together sides,

though at times they may be shy,

there's no deeper love to spy.

this is such a georgous poem! really delicous read its so beautiful and captures the feeling so well.

Beautifully written!Loved especially 'blooming blood-carnation shells' and 'honey-bitter thoughts'. Nicely cone. keep writing =D

M, this is quite sweet. Now I find myself wishing for summer & all its grace. I've never seen this style; choka, you say? It worked very well, eloquent words & charming ideas. Second stanza = favorite. No, nevermind, I love the whole thing. :)

First line definetly drew me in, especially the word "ladybird." I love the pairing of words in this poem. It's different, original, a yet perfect a beautiful.

honey-bitter a lovely contrasting image

Amazing imagery. I love the rhythm that runs through the entire poem. Keep it up!

It's short, but it's full of beautiful imagery. Greatjob.
