2 Quote A Flower Daily - Yellow Dahlia Abstract

She blinks like citrine glazed along hillsides, Dahlia of midnight flaunts without guilt As palette of amber strokes lustrous glides ; To waltz evening with her bohemian lift. Flow, flow while petals spread their vibrant blooms On April's mural , those lips dare to tease... Her contours trailing with velour costumes Wildly ablaze, to ride on spring’s trapeze. This ambrosial drift which shines ,which glows From heaven’s mold granting dahlia's trance Enchanting a whirl, my shade of yellows... Like me, she curls into a floral dance! Flower Contest:Brian Strand
