The imagery here is bright and sparkling. You've convinced me that there is always beauty surrounding me, I just have to look a bit harder to find it. The nod to the seasons at the end is lovely!
Ahh, you've truly captured the spirit of Dickinson, not only in your dashes and capitalizations but in your theme! So funny, that she was such a recluse but could give us such wonderful advice about how to approach the world. This certainly does!
Writing wasn't really a huge thing for me at first, it was just some silly hobby I had to let my creativity shine through other windows than just art- since art wasn't my strong suit. Eventually, I moved in the 6th grade to a small apartment complex and my mom stumbled across YWP in the newspaper. She read a little about it and thought it would suit me well. Then after signing up and making an account I got really into writing and wrote on here.
I am very proud to be a part of this wonderful community of people and wish the very best to newcomers along the way!
I've done that before, many times. But some writings I haven't, some have a spark about them that I can't just redo. There's also something ever so welcoming about having mistakes and errors in your past writings, so when a month or 2 rolls around you can see where you were with your writings and how you used to write. Sometimes I'll look at other peoples writings and see a spelling mistake or grammar mistake, but I don't really notice it all that much because I'm not reading it to criticize- I'm there to read a possibly beautiful and life-changing writing.
It also reminds me that I can make mistakes too and it's okay if a writing from yesterday isn't as good as one I could do today.
Anyways, sorry for such a ramble. Hope you have a lovely rest of your week!
Ethereal! The crystal-clear quality of that lake -- it's a true mirror. I'd do anything to visit someday!

This is so perfect. Infinity has so many definitions, and this poem somehow captures them all in its six short lines. I love it!
This is so beautiful! It looks like a painting.
I love this! You go into details that pulled me in right away and you smoothly transition one sentence into to the other!

This is AMAZING! The detail, especially on the shoes, is incredible!
