This was a beautifully written nature poem. I found a couple alliterations to stand up like drink drunkenly and showers-spattering--sprinkling-splashing. Priceless observations. Nicely done. Excellent work :)

    Irish Rain, wow! Yes, we are truly blessed! But .. we must ...pause and breathe in every precious moment to truly absorb the gift of God right before our own eyes.

This is a great poem, and the picture goes perfectly. You have beauty in living color. Nature not splashed on an open canvas. You have the original, a treasure from God. Money can not buy anything God created. He put these things on earth to freely enjoy. To take care of future generations.
Thank you for sharing such a great poem.

You certainly describe a paradise right out your back door. And I'm glad that you so generously share with your "four-legged neighbors." It's a true blessing to be reminded of the treasures of God's creation daily! Best wishes in the contest!

Beautifully penned poem and what a view! I wish I had your backyard! Ours is smaller with a lake though, and we get all kinds of creatures and water fowl.

Sending you my best today as always and best wishes for the upcoming contest,
Sal :))

I enjoyed reading this well written description of your back yard, in all it's glory. Colors, plants, trees, all enjoying the humidity of the day, that causes some to drip and enjoy the moisture...Such is indeed an example of the Eden that was intended, with all the visitors, both human and animals to enjoy..Your word usage was beautifully chosen, and used...I
I truly enjoyed reading this Good luck in the contest, this is a very good 6 star entry.

Warmly,
Victoria

You're very privileged to live in such a grand place of herbivorous proliferation and abundance Jim. Very descriptively image laden poem, that exhorts the watcher to drink in the wonder of creation, beautifully written Jim, an excellent work, blessings Roy

Your nature poems are exquisite! I really enjoyed this one. The free verse flows as it should and you used poetry tools well. I liked the "taste" of resplendent sanctuary said aloud. I wish you well in the contest.
