Sunlight warms my face
And the concrete beneath my feet
Leaves imprints on my soles.
Tufts of grass
Sway flimsily.
A bare tree with the potential
To wear a floral crown
Watches pliant dandelions
Succumb to
A
Swift
Breeze.

Great job! Spring is my favorite season, and this is one of my favorite poems about it. I love the way you organized the last four lines to have two or less words per line-it's very dramatic. Altogether outstanding poem.

Please read, rate, and comment on my poems! Thanks!
