Silent Soliloquy

Lavender lilacs pose pretty with riotous rows of perfect petals wind whipped, airily arcing mesmerizing motions…paths pulsing sweet scents wistfully woo wispy winged, soft silk butterfly to alight and sip fresh nectar. Written on 12/14/2021

Laura, this is so tranquil and lush with nature imagery. I just love every one of your alliterative word pairs - I'm particularly fond of "airily arcing mesmerizing motions". When I watch butterflies flit by I can't take my eyes off of them, simply mesmerizing. I also enjoyed "wispy winged". Truly enjoyed this, best wishes in the contest ~ John
