Metamorphosis

Succulent showers of golden morning dew bathed my soft coos in pearly rose hue the day I unveiled from my pretty petals butterflies singing with naughty nettles. A blooming bud smiling in my umpteenth hours daddy's glorious girl in serenade of flowers warm whispers of lavender lullabies with stars quintessential quilt of fireflies from jars. Born to bring bliss in a smoldering world ferocious fire of fallacies at us hurled Oh daddy! Courageously cocooned me to death melting mellows for a baby till last breath. Tenebrous thorns surrounded my scarred shadows perhaps protected my petals in mourning meadows living legend of beauty behind a tenacious thorn I awaited aurora of auspicious showers to be reborn. Whimpering willow wails on a whispering dark night onlooking opalescent sprinkles from my petals bright ecstatic effervescence my scarred thorns now release sumptuous solace of daddy's promise in soothing breeze.

I would love to observe how you write such beauties as this, Aditi, the fantastic phrasing, voluptuous vocabulary, the alluring alliterations. I'd love to ask how you come up with such sumptuous sounding sentiments and learn from your amazing storehouse of poetic creativity. My favorite phrase was "ferocious fire of fallacies". Please keep writing and inspiring, these poems are just exceptional. Congratulations on your win, my friend. Blessings ~ John
