Delight

Dappled sunlight on emerald leaves, Rhododendron trusses painted in rainbows. Daffodil ablaze in golden glory, Roses dipped in dark burgundy. Garden of beauty a temptation to all, Vivid colours crying out to be adored. Gently descending floating on the breeze, Vibrant shades of azure adorn her wings. Delight to the world a thing of beauty, Resting motionless amidst a rainbow. Densely clustered petals her throne, Resplendent in the mottled light.
