Come, Pluck a Song

What makes your smile cold? On springtime colors bold? Hummingbirds croon from afar Wilder than tambourine, Thrilling the night’s gauze sheen. Come, pluck the tangy guitar Dance a belly-go-round, Before grey hairs abound--- Be the chant of life’s bright star! © rights reserved ' ' ' ' '' '' '''' '' ' Show Me for Brian Strand's Contest By: nette onclaud

Say Nette, you stretch the adjectives to bring every emotion and image to the reader. I guess that's why you are so good or should I say great!! Hugs to you too.
