Fleeting fragrances,

furtive flowers find,

Fostering fantasies,

foreshadowing feasts,

Fawn-footed fauna frolic, fervent, free,

Faintest fragrance, floating, flutteringly found;

Fabled forests,

fountains, freshets flow,

Frolicking flora,

fairly furtive fragrance flows,

Flooding for flowery fervour,

Fragile, flattering fronds, ferns freshly free;

Freed from frozen fetters,

flickering flames, fervently fair.

Fleeting fuchsia flecks,

fecund forests fathom forgotten fracks,

Flourishing flowers' feast, finely fevering,

Flowing flowers, feeling fragile freedom;

Fleeting frostwork fades,

fairly fright,

Fallen feelings,

finding flight,

Fulfilling fantasies, flee for forgotten fears,

Fathomless fleeting, fascinatingly flowering force;

nature poetry

    This poem beautifully captures the essence of spring awakening with its vivid descriptions of nature's fleeting fragrances and flourishing flowers. The use of alliteration and poetic language makes the piece flow beautifully and transports the reader to a magical world of fabled forests, frolicking fauna, and flourishing flora. The imagery is stunning, and the overall effect is a celebration of the beauty and wonder of nature. Thank you for sharing this hymn to the awakening of spring!

    keep up the good work

  • I'm afraid I have to give you an "F" for this (every pun intended). Almost a tautogram, but not tied to it. Utilizing the flowing sound of the letter "f" to usher us into the sweet gentle breezes of spring. I loved every bit of this.

  • This was sooo good
