Azalea's Covetous Caress

(Swap Sonnet) Azalea struts her bloom before the rose in early spring, to follow jonquil pose and steal respect from phlox' expanding plume. Before the rose, azalea struts her bloom; her fervor glows beneath a brilliant sky and boldly sends a zealous battle cry to power down the honor of the rose. Beneath a brilliant sky, her fervor glows, while rose's gift survives the touch of time. Her tint, her scent gives hint of vintage wine as petals stir, and memory board contrives the touch of time, the rose's gift survives. Azalea's burst of color fades to naught yet rose's blush continues to be sought.
