I really enjoyed this peom. It really flowed, not the style that I expected to see, but I liked it just the same. Very nice imagery and it had a sort of sad note as the mood. I loved the "Dogwood tree that has slept its way into bloom" as well as the "shining eyes" line. Very soft and beautiful in a revrent way. You put a new twist on a simple transtition of seasons. Great work!
