Where do they come from?
and where have they been
all year through?
who told them that spring is here
who invited them?
Or have they only been intruding?
are they the hosts themselves
and does it all belong to them?

The bees, butterflies and birds of Spring

I found this to be unique in how you see creation being a territory that belongs to specific entities like the butterflies,bees, etc.
Really different and well written overall.
Welcome to the site!

I love Spring, as long as we have one.
Colorado hasn't had much of one this year, and we'll soon be looking at Summer.
I enjoy this and the way you have interpreted the images. I actually love how you have chosen to include our favorites--the birds and the bees.
Good job. Patricia

I always find it interesting to see how different people interpret the images in our contests. They often have such intriguing minds in how they are inspired. You have done a nice job expressing yours.

Good luck

This is a very nice little poem on some of the aspects of nature. You have taken quite a unique look at the contest and written something which flows quite well and is ncie to read.

This is an interestingly unique perspective on the subject. Most others viewed it as a whole, but you broke it down to the smaller fragments that encompass nature.
However, for this piece to be eligible for judging, you must put the option you chose in the author's comment section. There's more than enough time to do so.
Thanks for entering, and welcome to the site.
Best wishes in the contest,

That is a good question-where does it all come from-when was it all set in motion. I know what I believe and am convinced of. You do make the reader ponder though Hope you get your option posted~vest wishes vj

You've managed to capture quite some mystery within the lines here (leaves some space for the reader to interprete this poem) and then you reveal it at the end - I like that
Please remember to put the option number in your author's comment there's still some time left before judging day, but it's necessairy to be able to win a trophy
thank you for sharing and welcome to the site! -
I like the way you wrote this out. Leave your reader to wonder until the ending. Nicely done. Please don't forget to follow the contest rules by placing your option # in your author's comments area. Good luck to you and welcome to AP

I like the way you left me sort of wonderring where they came from as well. Even though you don't mention it, you sort of capture the feel of spring in my area of the world. One day it is winter and everything looks dead, then boom there is green everwhere the next day. Much like you describe with the birds, etc.
Good luck in the contest and welcome to AllPoetry

Welcome to the AP site
Spring should be loved! After a nasty winter of rain, snow and hard blowing winds. Spring is a really nice sight to see as the sun starts to shine warm and the flowers start to bloom. I found this to be a quick flowing pace poem. You did a good job on ths write but it would have been better if there was a few more lines.
Good luck in the contest
