Abracadabra - It's Magical- Collaboration

A picturesque scene from my window this afternoon.
Banishing all greying clouds, the sky is pastel blue.
Radiating the sun's rays, rain was not seen for days.
Astonishing vibrant rainbow of flowers are strewn. 
Clusters of marigolds, daffodils and lilies grow.  
A glorious image appears in the far lagoon.
Delicate swans are gliding in the sparkling waters. 
Adorable signets will be completely grown soon. 
Bewitching aromas from where the white jasmine grew. 
Rain was not seen for days, radiating the sun's rays. 
Alluring sunset drenches all crimson, by the moon.

Emile Pinet Date: 8/15/2024 1:17:00 PM Congratulations Merv! Your poem placed "First" in my PoetrySoup contest. This format was difficult, and the quality of the poems entered was outstanding, but yours rose to the top. You should be proud of your work; it is a wonderful example of this form of poetry (with an acoustic as a bonus). Very well done, my friend Emile.

I typed it but he was definitely the mastermind behind it. He is stoked with his trophy.
