Your Lupines and Dianthus are just beautiful. This has such truth to it, whatever you love, WILL love you back! The proof is in the garden! Great entry, blessings...

    Hi Judy. Thank you for your fabulous review. I do love my garden. These two plants are just a small portion. I like how the perennials bloom one after the other.

I relish your garden and your green thumb, especially since my is rather gray--I either over or underwater! I admired your personification of the "flowers" in this 5-7-5 and your photo of the lovely lupines and dianthus. Best wishes in the contest and enjoy more of your garden's love this weekend- Joan

    Hi Joan. Thank you for your lovely review, especially when it involves my garden. This is one tiny portion of it. All the blooms outdo themselves in rotation. It's a perennial garden, so one thing blooms after another. Such a joy. Everything grows here.

    Good for you to tend the perennials and achieve year round bounty- Joan

After reading 'My Garden', I find that it is a well-written 5-7-5
The second line stands out: 'flowers compete to impress'- Some may bloom brighter than others.
The image shown supports the topic discussed in this poem. The background goes well with the picture and color of font selected.
Best of luck to you in the contest.
Thanks for sharing your I Love poem.
Good luck with your future writing.
-Nicole-

This is a great entry into the contest, B. We have a garden now, at the house we recently bought, but it's mostly vegetables. But they seem to do the same thing, compete to impress. Haha. Best of luck in the contest. This one wins my vote. Have a great day.

I like how you personified your lovely garden. I know you love it, too.


Good job on the style of the 5-7-5. Your few words according to contest rules speak well of your love/

I love lupines but they don't like the hot weather here.

Best wishes in the contest. Jan

    Hi Janny. Thank you for your nice review of my garden poem. I like to take photos of my garden and when the opportunity comes up to write a poem about it. These lupines and dianthus are just one portion of the rotation of flowers. I didn't have much success with plants in California either, too hot and too dry. Here in Wisconsin everything grows--such a pleasure. Marilyn

I love your poem as much as you love your garden. That line, "flowers compete to compete" is very impressive. It is an image-filled personification.

Great usage of word economy. You made every syllable count.

This poem has winning potential. Good luck!

Our gardens (if we're fortunate enough to have one) are places where we can go to read and relax, kick back, and just enjoy the beauty of nature for awhile. It's a place of peace and serenity, of rejuvenation and recharging from the rigors of every day life.
Your 5-7-5 is in good form.
Best of luck to you in the "I Love" poetry Contest.

Anonymous Poet;
thank you so much for sharing your lovely 5-7-5 for the Love contest. You certainly managed to include YOU and the thing you love within the limited syllables. The feelings come across well and the presentation was lovely.

Well done and good luck in the contest,
