pristine/prairie has wonderful alliteration. Overall, great visual imagery created. Spiritual. Inviting. Well thought out and clearly written. Nice work. Good luck in the contest.

Great piece and stated so simply and beautifully. You have a true eye for the beauty of nature. The only remark I have is that the flowers in the picture appeared purple to me, but maybe I'm color blind. Well done, Tom.

Hi, Treischel,
This is a good poem following the line/syllable convention of a Lune poem. It has good imagery "blue against the green" and alliteration (pristine prairie). Good luck in the contest.

Prairie flowers blooming amidst vast swathes of green prairie grass are twice as stunning, an oasis of color. There really is no other way to say it than "blue against the green".

I really like the blue against green as well.
How beautiful a mass display must be.
Your lovely lune poem captures the essence of a prairie alive with
flowers and complies with the contest guidelines also.
Good luck.

Thank you. I like wild flowers. They are under appreciated.

You're welcome:)
I enjoy wildflowers. There are some purple scented ones growing along the ditchbank, a very long stretch of them. They smell wonderful! I need to photograph them.
