Hi Andy~hating university , I found your poem on the I-write page and I am here to review it, per the rules. Also, I have chosen your piece to review, as part of my challenge in "a very Wodehouse challenge. I hope you'll find some of my suggestions useful.

My thoughts:
*Bulletb* This is a very pretty poem about the coming on of spring.
*Bulletb* You followed the form of a tetractys very well, and everything still made sense and flowed well
*Bulletb* I liked how you started out with the deep winter in the first stanza, then moved on to the coming of spring, and then continually moved into how winter is slowly slipping away.

Suggestion:
There were a few words I didn't recognize in this piece, which I looked up, but I suggest using some more common adjectives or plant names. Having to stop reading to look up what "aconite" or "sylvan" was took me out of the scene you set with the poem.


*Flower5* Overall, I liked how your poem portrayed the passing of winter, and still followed the form well. Please note that I do not know much about poetry, though, so these are only suggestions, and I hope they are helpful. Good job, and keep writing! *Dragon*


*Gold* My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!.
