Half-Spring by Kellyn Roth

NOTE: THE IMAGES ON THIS POST HAVE DISAPPEARED.

Today I wrote a poem to describe our weather here. 🙂 Enjoy!

Half-Spring by Kellyn Roth (2/5/16)

So many things

That remind us of springs

That have already passed

Are here.

Like robins and flowers

And half-sunny hours

And prancing of baby

Deer.

Yet the air is so crisp

The wind is so brisk

And the sky keeps on pouring down

Rain.

When will spring come?

It arrives some by some

And soon we see things aren’t the

Same.

What do you think? I’d love to have constructive criticism! 🙂

p.s. I’m pretty proud of my photography, but the credit really goes to my new camera. 😉 And yes, I realize the photos aren’t that great. But I had limited subject matter!

What do you think of my thoughts?

      1. It’s better then some of the rhymes on pop sings. “House” and “Loud” DO NOT RYHME. (This is wear my faint OCDness kicks in). This is why I listen to Alternative Rock.

  1. Oh wow, wonderfull kell!!
    Love this poem almost as much as that September one…that one was my all-time, all-time favorite;)
    And your photography is allmost as good as mine! 😉
    (just kidding) 😉
    Love the pic of the green shoots…shooting out of the mud. Ya that’s a good one;)

  2. I know right! Who’d you hire to take that pic for you?
    (haha jk) 😉
    The best nature photography is up close and personel, you can never go wrong with super close pics

      1. Correcto mundo!
        I also got a lot out the those 2 simple minutes; I found the pineapple. I figured out who the bad guy was. AND I heard him say “not. says the liar”. Yes mam! I got ALOT out of those 2 minutes!

      2. Aannd I’m pretty sure you got the “*throwing pineapple*” from me. 😉
        Nice to see us crazy people are rubbing off on you and making you even more crazy!

      3. *growls*
        It seriously wont let me reply to sarahs coment so I have to reply up here.
        *growls again*
        I know sarah I got all copy-cat on you!! 😉 *giggles*
        You. Are. My. Role. Model. When it comes to throwing pineapples lol! 😉
        Ya I prolly became like this because of YOU, sarah! Your crazy rubbed off on me, thanks a lot! 😉
        Haha! 😉

  3. Ooooh, I love that first photo! The poem was great too. Our weather isn’t like that here (aside from a deer that comes wandering around our house, but she’s not a baby, so not really). Here there’s snow…and more snow.

      1. Lucky! I think I live south-ish from you, and it’s just cold here. I think I’d much rather have rain than snow. I like the sound of rain…plus sometimes you get lightning storms which are awesome.
