Inspired by Janeen Pizzo, I gave a go to my own Pantoum poem.
The tress, they stand through it all A new fresh start every year Shaking off the winter gloom Green emerges, new life A new fresh start every year Blazing summer heat drips from your leaves Green emerges, new life A place for solitude and rest Blazing summer heat drips from your leaves Changing right before our eyes A place for solitude and rest You shed your coat of many colors Changing right before our eyes A skeleton of what you once were, strong and mighty You shed your coat of many colors The trees, they stand through it all

Wow! I was unfamiliar with this type of poem (thanks for the link to the definition). You nailed it. What a beautiful, deep poem. The repetition of lines reminds of a tapestry.

Thanks for reading. It was so fun to write. And really only requires 8 lines of poetry. The repetition makes is sound more complex. I love the comparison to a tapestry!
