Effloresce: Earth Changes

To burst forth; bloom- everything in nature from flowers, fires, and ferocity.

"The two first lines drew me in, ..I think this brings me to the ponderous moments while watching the magnificent sky..when you almost feel you are shifting along with the changes."

"I enjoy reading your work & find this a wonderful image spurring thought or is it a thought spurring image... A delightful senryu to please those ancient Japanese while pleasing modern interpreters of this form as well. "

Director's Cut
"It's got an "all the worlds a stage" vibe to it. Nicely done." 

"Thank you for sharing your poem. I really enjoyed it. I thought the first few lines flowed very nicely with the "s" alliteration...  I look forward to seeing what you will do with this poem."
