Charm-Laden February

Velvet heart romantics sensual bounce, 
embolden relish despite an North Pole 
shiver amid the snowfall prism awning. 
Love-in-a-mist, synonym on damp Earth 
ground clay akin to scented daybreak
usher sown wistfully underneath a 
picturesque garden card sweet ritual.
Deep violet iris clusters bumper crop
of white and yellow matchmaker pollen.
Wondrous daffodil orange hue amply shades 
it on charm-laden eye bright lustre omen.
Boundary wall purple clad aesthetic for
just we two human link chain jubilance.
Beyond this amorous enchantment other
panoramic backdrops herald visual gems.
Lesser redpoll cinnamon-brown twig perch
Black warblers stone grey plumage swoop,
forage and sequester round each broadleaf
 tree golden orb seed wide arc lure,
fruit and berry composite on hedgerow
another hungry wild bird pristine cache. 
Wether valentines bewitching red dawn eros, 
that raw bone ice chill plummet or
iridescent wingspan proud horizon flyer,
February’s an opus-ridden flagship bookmark
