An Emerald Morning Verdant sylvan shades share, emerald and peridot's glossy glow with Apollo's serene sunrise in silent tropic trades as I delight to see Egrets take flight in our island's stunning sultry morning light as sunlight gleams off white outstretched wings. My soul sings with the enchantment life brings. Fine mist reaps rainbows in vivid hues, sun kissed. Raindrops create magical mountain mélanges in winsome waterfalls. Seaside surf splashes white waves upon the pearly sandy shores with aqua warm waters. Maritime vessels share the sea with swimmers. Young and old rejoice in our peaceful paradise. 8-21-17 Atmospheric Pressure Sponsored by: Shadow Hamilton | N/A ANOTHER 2017 STUNNER~3rd Place~ Sponsored by: Line Gauthier | 4/19/2018

You are right Lynn, I have had a love affair with the clouds since I took my first airplane ride at three and a half. I decided right then I wanted to fly as a stewardess. I never wavered. Our island clouds are simply breathtaking. Thank you so much for your insightful comment and the Fave. I have missed you too my friend. Blessings, Connie : )
