WORKSHOP POEM: GRAND TOUR TO FAIRYLAND Sprinkled-rainbow clouds reign above the skies, peeping yellow in-between wrinkled pillars shine like bulbs to crash the net of fog attached to curve hands of green Cathedrals. A carpet of bluebells and daffodils covers the earth below. Creeping slow are mosses and vines hugging the trees. Polka dots of blood rich roses stand out. Festoons of lavanders, garlands of lilacs marched a primrose path for the queen while the fruits from cherries' hush blush; to peaches supple flair winks on mellow pear. Afloat midair are high and low golden notes trembling free upon river runs and bushes land. Snaps and bounds from strums of bumblebees; signal the nightingales to sing their anthem loud; Their thumps of dulcet-sounds shake the hours. Scents pure as Spring May cocoons the fair while all around swirls the dragonflies-- the star dancers of the sun-kissed day. Rushing wind whistles a lullaby to cast a spell of never-never-land, for there live... thumb-size flying creatures of their kind. Regal in blinding white are the fays and fairies. __________________________________________________ NEW TITLE: MY TRIP TO FAIRYLAND Rainbow-sprinkled clouds marching above the skies, Sun's golden rays peek in-between curved hands of lush green Cathedrals crashing the net of fog sleeping on the ground. A carpet of bluebells plus flashing violets exhale scents on the air. Sly-like mosses and vines hug the trunk of trees. Polka dots of blood rich roses pose, standing grand. Festoons of lavanders, garland of lilacs, swelling banana blossoms, cherries hush-rush blushes with peaches winking flair on frowning pears all prod to honor the queen. High and low golden notes tremble free upon river runs to proud bushes land. From strums of bumblebees are leaps and pounds, luring nightingales'anthem on a merry-dancing groove. Thumps of dulcet-sounds shake the passing hours, Rainbow hues cocoons the fair while all around dragonflies twirl and dive- they, the star-dancers of that sun kissed day. Impressed wind whistles the lullaby spelling never-never-land, for there... there live.. thumb-size flying creatures regal in blinding white-- are the fays and fairies. ______________________________________________ POEM OF THE DAY ---April 07, 2015 ©O.E> Guillermo 9:52 pm, April 05, 2015

Hi little one - Dee sent me over. #1 what is being sprinkled? If the CLOUDS are being sprinkled with rainbows its RAINBOW-SPRINKLED clouds - IF the rainbow is being sprinkled with clouds its CLOUD sprinkled rainbows - I don't know if you have here what you want & I don't think what you have is gramatically correct. What are the [yellow streaks?] what are the wrinkled pillars?] it's unclear.

Hi Debbie.. thank you so much for that advice.. :) again I changed, I am onto so much nowadays that I rarely am here to comment, or post something.. but I have poems though left unfinished.. thanks much... :)!hugs~olive eloisa

I'll have to come back tonight, Olive... as I'm in super crazy busy mode, right now. Lovely images and a good one to pick for the workshop. Many may think, wait a minute, this has won a contest or how could someone think of revising a poem that made poem of the day on Soup? Why? I'm glad you took up the torch and chose this one. Even poets who have had their poems published, look at their poetry in those books and think, I wish that word was... oh, if I could just change that line...lol...
