Mirage

March on, April, and may irises counterpose raring purples yellow As gray clouds in sun dance Gentling storms rain mellow… March on, April, and may endearing pinks breezy move magic carpet rides In petals morphed to leaves Rufous plum branches hide… March on, April, and may amaryllis buds dew gleaming in your cool drops Elegantly bleeding Massive red, makes hearts stop… March on, April, and may iridescence fly by restless in moody hues A meld of hot and cold Great hope’s mirage are you!

Susan, this is so expressive flowing with color in "moody hues" and images. So many inventive word choices. Congratulations on your win! All the best.

the way you inserted the other meaning of may (the modal) in place of the month's name was simply brilliant. GReat imagery. Big congrats in my contest, Susan.
