An Impulsive Grin

Splendiferous songbirds begin tweeting; just as the sun rises, avoiding any surprises. Like the strings of a violin or the touch of a gentle breeze; chirping birds set my heart at ease. Triggering an impulsive grin, they take the time to greet the sun; and celebrate a new day won. A cool mist caresses my skin, letting me feel that I'm alive; and born to do more than survive. And when a hummingbird pops in, it flies from flower to flower; while taking a dewy shower. I'm in tears, much to my chagrin, watching Dawn ink a scarlet sky; its grandeur draws a gentle sigh. Splendiferous songbirds begin like the strings of a violin Triggering an impulsive grin, a cool mist caresses my skin, And when a hummingbird pops in; I'm in tears, much to my chagrin.

I like this, Emile, it shines with all the specs of the constanza indicating some effort on your part. Free verse is good, but requires less work IMHO. Congratulations on a fine piece of poetry.
