Comments on the clue

1.	I like it but would have trouble solving. Can't see a definition and it is hardly &lit. Is it a humorous comment on the clue-writing comp?
2.	So do I – where's the definition?
3.	While give=emit, I don't think "I give" does, and I do not see any definition for springtime…
4.	The good idea is undermined by lack of a definition
5.	Good that you did! But even for a clue with no definition, why is "I give = emit"? Even give as such is pretty weak.
6.	Definition?
7.	Where's the definition?
