NONE OTHER!

None

Other!                            

 

Pristine blades of

sprucely earnest green,

uphold illustrious flora

of assimilated

scarlet-purple streams.

These potent herb plants,

crowned with ropey

buds of valiant mauve,

have emerged upon

the fiercely neglected 

residental grove.

Tall, elegant, synchronised

clusters, advance foward

with harmonious lustre,

without a fuss or fluster.

Conforming regimentally with

every sporadic windy bluster

 Whoosh " Whoosh

That is, until the weather

permits again, a sedentary,

yet esteemed demeanour,

infusing pungently,

the much acclaimed, 

indelibly resourceful,

medicinal muster,

of what has to be: 

the skin tingling,

ornamental,

vivacious,

therapeutic  

Lavender

and,

None

Other...

[L. Edward Neale]

Some witchey herby reverence going on there. That garden feels very alive in my mind. More like running my hands over it with my eyes closed feeling the energy, smelling the smells, heaing the sounds of the other elements like the wind interecting with the plants. I really like the personification of the colours "spruceley earnest green" and "valiant mauve," ascribing symbolic qualities to energies represented by colour tones, like an Aura reading. You really have a way with words.

[Kimberly "Melody" Carne..]

Perfectly written in every way. A joy to read and I can almost smell the perfect Lavender!

[SHEEMA HUQ]

Melody, thanks, you have trailed your
way all through to find this poem, I am honored, this one took on a lot of refining and tweaking, as a WC begginer, with shakey confidence, this took me ages, and I was even gonna edit it a little (for a book manuscript submission), I'll leave it and stay with your hunch, thanks again

[Dr. Wood ?]

Now THAT is poetry..you are very gifted

[roarke]

the first breath of summer, nature's finest bouquet. You captured this moment with unique verve.

[Tai Ryens]

I'm not quite sure how to explain what I thought of this poem; I mean, it has bedazzled me beyond my known vocabulary. It is as if joy came to me once I had imagined this beautiful scene, but also this strange form of sorrow for them, and also a relaxing, soothing feel to it. You've written such a beautiful piece of poetry, I enjoyed every word of this. It was all cleverly done, beautifully crafted, and to top it all off, the ending was mind blowing, or at least in my opinion. Well done indeed!

she writes with paintbrush, not pen.

[Cherrie Palmer]

now that's what I call a vivid image, this is just beautiful

[Ed Hart]

i'm always so pleased when an accomplished poet sits down in the cafe

[I Shred This Cabbage]

quite the effect of enlarging the importance of measurement yet diminshing the galaxies. an unattainable vision growing , suggestive of mystery with no solution, the beautiful resource of life breathing without need for thought.
