Notes About The Poem

For Jasmine or Flakes Poetry Contest, 
Sponsored by Ink Empress

Winter Jasmine

Amid the recent snowfall, is a sunny, yellow cascade; For, jasmine blooms are now plunging, in cold shade. Stark trees are forever shivering, though much alive; Dreaming of the purple birds, and lonesome beehives. Jasmine is blooming, on every fence and green trellis, Like rainbow that lingers; when it has much to tell us! The street of pink-blue skies, now brings ready smiles; To see myriad florets, on one of nature's snowy aisles.
