Great poems!

The imagery seems like a dream to me, though, stuck here in the middle of a dreary, dark, cold and wet English winter. Wildflowers, sunshine, hydrangeas? What in the world are those?

i think theyre lovely, great imagery and considering these are only drafts thats definately bound to get better as well.

Constructive criticism: i really think you need to consider structural features of the poems in adding to the imagery. you know, alliteration, chiasmis, juxtapositioning, all that jazz.

Absolutely lovely. I almost feel that I have a license to put some of my own up now.
