It is not sad!!! It's lovely! I really love the atmosphere you have created here Tracy with the darker background, it really depicts the tentative onset of spring with green leaves sprinkled at the edge of the poetry, along with the coming light! Love it! and I also love that you used the entire poem, that is very creative! Fabulous layout!

I totally agree with Ona. I think it's lovely, Tracy. It has such a "poetic" feel to it - it's very artistic. The darkness on the left side of the page really adds to the artistic feel and look.
