The Joyful Spring

In spring the garden is a feast of blossom,
with attractive riots of diverse flowers,
day by day their freshness looms,
like the dews of the morning showers.

the joyful spring unveils the beauty of nature,
for without the spring nature is barren!
for this scintillating outlook a pure cynosure,
for the peace of the spring seems like Aspen.

for the joyful spring comes not only by flowers,
for there should be a joyful spring of lovers,
for the entirety of every looking ambience emanates,
from the engrafted nectar of it's outlook that originates.

the joyful spring is a garden of scented roses plants and trees,
the inhabit the territorial areas of farm land and bees,
if every marriage is so peaceful like this,
the world shall go forward and fix!

I am rather fond of these lines and I learned a new word from you:

the joyful spring unveils the beauty of nature,
for without the spring nature is barren!
for this scintillating outlook a pure cynosure,
for the peace of the spring seems like Aspen.

Spring is indeed, a cynosure of color, and explosion of life. You must be a gardener or at least lover of flowers! Very nice work!
I was aware of the word, but had not used it, ever! Thanks for giving me ideas for the use of it.~ Geez.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

Heart felt thanks Geezer for reading through.
Yes, indeed I love flowers especially when they bud afresh! Flowers inspires me alot any time I glue my eye on it. You're very competent in predicting people especially through their artistic work. Wonderful!

I think the form of it with two four line stanzas, and two five line stanzas is thought out.

Having said that, I have to ask why did you separate S2 fro S3? Seems to me that they are of the similar thought-line, and certainly the repetition of "For" is present in both. Just wondering.

I appreciate your critique here. But, there was no separation. It's a four line stanzas hence each stanza is marked with punctuations! The separation you noticed was just a mistake. It's now corrected.

Line two and three are dissimilar! The vary from each other. Go back to it again.

The usage of 'FOR' is just my flow. Does it look awkward?

Thank you for keeping an eye!

I have been a lyric writer more than a poet so I tend to look at poems from a lyricist's viewpoint.

I read out the poems loud especially to rhyming pieces to capture the flow. This worked well in that aspect except maybe for the rather long:

"the joyful spring is a garden of scented roses plants and trees,"

That said you weren't attempting a song lyric so it works as a poem but for me I would have shortened it to keep the meter flowing vocally.

You certainly described the Spring in all its glory & the theme was maintained throughout painting the images for us to see in vivid colour, & feel in a tranquil atmosphere.

Good strong piece.
