Sandy's gold and loose hair, flowed down her bare back as snow. Waves kiss others as they crash into the air. Golden glitter heavenly charm glow. Clouds are piled up alike a thousand black kites, Lighting is blazing and emits intense light. Wind barks the same as dogs seeking their moonlit lord, Steel seas pound my frail wooden ship's cord. Gooey alike toddler toffee-fingered palm She tried to scrape it into a chignon farm, stray from the ballerina's graceful updo. They snuck away with their dogs via active dough. Her eyes were shining alike a thousand diamonds, only in my fantasies and distant islands. One time, I had an incredibly affectionate heart. It is torn, the seams burst, and explodes the dart.

Strewn with beautiful similes.... ! With Michelle, I must also say that my favourite is ...'Clouds are piled up alike a thousand black kites,'

Your verse is so striking, I especially like 'clouds piled up up - like a thousand black kites' and 'she tried to scrape it into a chignon farm' - very vividly expressed!
