Oh this is smothering in dreamy daffodils your expressions a touch of paradise. Congratulations on this lovely win poetess!

One of the best in a competitive competition; congratulations.

"Dreamscape of daffodils," yes, magical and inspiring flowers. A Pleiades so beautifully penned.

Nicely penned Empress, Congrats on your win

I echo the sentiments of this excellent poem of yours dear poetess. I especially loved your lines, "dawning of balmy views, deep pink and purple hues." Thanks for this gorgeous pleiades and best wishes in what appears to be a very competitive contest on the soup.

Daffodil such a fun word and your last line adds much merry-making...Who could stay away from such a beautiful portrait you brush. Bol in the contest...great entry!

This is a very good Pleiades, Empress; even enriched by a sprinkling of alliteration and rhyme. Yes, many people think that only yellow daffodils exist; if not mistaken even blue daffodils have been cultivated, though I've never seen one! ~ Regards // paul

So lovely, Ink Empress. This jewel is in my faves. :)

How sweet and beautiful this is...Loved it

You have taught me something new dear Empress. I always thought daffodils only came in yellow. I now discover there are also pink and purple varieties too. So enchanting to write about the lesser known. Your poem abounds in the sweet scent of musky air and I see fields of saffron daffodils, and there you are waiting, heart filled with anticipation. Wow I just realized I got all of that from your 7 tiny lines ! Incredible.

Your Pleiades paints a lovely image of Daffodils, a favorite of mine and my wife Sara's. I like the added alliteration in lines 3 & 5 ... saffron smeared and pink and purple. It's like putting a cherry on top to me. Thanks for sharing your gift of poetry with us my new friend. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill

I've been so moved by your poetry that I wrote a poem in response. I hope that's okay, and that you feel a bit lighter....:)

Quite beautiful. I loved the part about saffron smeared faith.

This is truly exquisite,’Dreamscape of daffodils’. Such incredible, thoughtful, crafted words that depict so much. You possess such great command of poetic language. So impressive and inspiring! Thank you for sharing and good luck with the competition. Blessings to you.

And again, your poem has reached deep within and pulled out all the emotions with your never ending grace and divinity of your heart mind and soul, always speaking such volumes to how I feel..both the beauty and the hardships you weave into such masterpieces, my beautiful soul sis! “Dreamscape of daffodils” of course your ethereal artistry would dream up such mesmeric words, stirring one’s soul..pulling at the heartstrings with the breathtaking way you weave. “Designed in acrylic” — again the way you’ve used acrylic is so beautifully unique to show the imagery you paint so exquisitely. “Saffron smeared faith”, “dawning of balmy views”, “drifting through murky air, darling you’ll find me there” such a delicately powerful ending! You always amaze me, my soul sis! I’m forever awestruck, feeling your words!

Love a daffodil, its a sign of new beginnings... Spring is a lovely month... I'm sure your poem will do very well in the contest. Nice choice of words and your contained them well in the syllable restrictions.. I have not done this form in such a long time... if only I had time... life is so busy...

Just got the catalogues selling those wonderful bulbs and can imagine a yard and woods filled with those fantastic daffodils, but, alas, we are no longer able to plant them. Thanks for sharing this dreamscape with us. I appreciate the visit to my page. Sara
