savour solitude ~ serene surrounding ~ dazzling dawn, drowning my senses with delight darkness descending deep on blissful dusk, birds tweeting trilling at tranquil twilight, twinkling stars at miraculous midnight, in awe at Nature’s wondrous splendour, immensely inspire imagination.

Sometimes solitude allows us to appreciate things around us that we don't even notice when people are around. You painted a stunning image, Malabika! Best wishes for a win. Hugs, Carolyn

awesome alliteration. I see you went for different sounds, which I was wondering if I should do as well (not just the S sound, but several others.)

Yes, Andrea, I have used a few other sounds for alliteration. Thank you for reading mine - I feel better! This is my first attempt at alliteration. Love ~ Mala
