Spring



Skies are crying, snowflakes dying
wet and shiny boulevards
Sunrays striking, tears are drying
spring is walking down the yards

    I love the imagery in this poem! The way you describe the wet and shiny boulevards, and the sunrays striking while tears are drying, is breathtaking. The personification of spring walking down the yards is a beautiful touch as well.

    One suggestion for improvement could be to add more depth to the emotions being portrayed. The title and first line suggest sadness and despair, but the rest of the poem seems to be describing the arrival of spring. It would be interesting to explore how the changing of seasons reflects or affects the speaker's emotions.

    Overall, a wonderful piece that captures the beauty of nature and the transition from winter to spring. Keep up the great work!
