Carolina Jasmina

Carolina Jasmina Carolina Jasmina scampers up a trellis Wearing a gown of marigold yellow; Adorns plain old wooden fences On fragile vines - a perfumed delight! On fragile vines - a perfumed delight! Adorns plain old wooden fences; Wearing a gown of marigold yellow Carolina Jasmina scampers up a trellis. 8-13-20 Sponsor John Lawless Contest: Mirror, Mirror

Thank you Jenna! I love our Carolina Jasmina that blooms in the winter. After scampering all over a trellis of errands today your lovely comment was a "perfumed delight!" All the best. Many blessings to you!

This is very creative, Sam. I love the personification of the Jasmina as it "scampers" up the trellis. I had trouble trying to make this form work and gave up, but your entry is excellent. Best wishes in the contest! Hugs, Carolyn

Oh, Carolyn, please forgive me for my lapse in responding to your gracious message. I am sure your best wishes contributed to the placement of this poem. Thank you! We have Carolina Jasmina, blooms in the winter, lovely fragrance and seems to have a lively, climbing personality. Stay well. Sending you many blessings my friend!
