Comment from jake cosmos aller
like this double kyrie form about boys playing in the words. the poem fits the photo prompt very well. you nailed the form. I like the last stanza the best
Fields are awash with wildflowers
amid the trees the air is cool.
Play winds down while counting the hours,
watch them cavort around the school.

Jake, thanks very much!

I like the repeating of the 'Cool' and 'School' lines for 2 and 4, and the 1s and 3s rhyme with each other too. It's cleverly done, and you got the 8 syllables per line.

Your double refrain kyrielle is excellent in every respect--skillfully and creatively written, appealing, and vividly descriptive of kids having carefree play time.

That takes us back a long way, I think all children went out in the sunshine to play on the in the playground at the end of school. The poem goes on to show the fields and trees, all things the children loved back then. Well done with this club entry! :)) Sandra xx

Comment from GTG345
Just a great poem, some of the words are vast with multiple words I never knew. One in particular was "bopeep", I looked it up and the first thing that showed up was that toy story character. I eventually found the definition and it made a lot more sense. I think it would be better if you added a "-" to the word to make it "bo-peep" because when I looked it up that is what it looked like.

This was very well written with the form. I loved both refrains. You really did a good job setting the scene with the imagery. It was easy to imagine everything going on.

You did great work with your Double Refrain Kyrielle. Both of your repeating lines are excellent and add so much to the thought of the poem. I enjoyed your description of the clouds. You make an interesting distinction between the boys' and the girls' games. You create the feeling of what's expressed in the poem. The picture is certainly great to inspire writing. It shows how different school days were from what they are now. judi

A lovely poem. The artwork is beautiful and suits your poem. I have never come across this form and it seems quite difficult to write. Very well done.
With regards

I think you covered the activities shown in this picture. You are perceptive to see the girls in the background playing "bo-peep" which fits the timeframe of the picture! I guess the joys of almost summer was the same then and now.
