Joseph May Poet Verse

Dance of Lilacs

Dancing delightfully where blooms blush
 Lithe lilacs undulate in the spring sunshine
 Blue butterflies flutter freely
 Birds bring forth melodies amid tall trees
 Cotton clouds sail serenely
 Shifting shapes across the   big blue sky
 Many creatures chime in with Spring's song

Valsa George November 18, 2021 at 8:49 PM Lilacs are beautiful flowers, I love much. A lovely poem on the lilacs that dance in breeze and the butterfles that flit around them !

Andrea Dietrich November 7, 2021 at 7:48 AM This one I will print out as my example. It makes sense to me.

Connie Marcum Wong November 5, 2021 at 2:09 PM A perfect example Joseph. A lovely enchanting Poem. Blessings xxoo Joseph May November 5, 2021 at 2:46 PM Thank you Connie, It was harder to do the second one..

Andrea Dietrich November 1, 2021 at 12:07 PM Love this, Joseph. I have a few questions for you. I'll use soupmail. Joseph May November 1, 2021 at 4:22 PM Thank you Andrea..

Joanna Daniel October 31, 2021 at 12:55 AM This is lovely, Joseph, some great imagery with awesome alliteration:) as Victor says, the syllable count could be tricky, but I will rack my mind:) Joseph May October 31, 2021 at 8:51 AM Thanks Jo, the syllable counts are easy compared to making the poem flow using the alliterations.

Victor Buhagiar October 30, 2021 at 1:14 AM Great imagery but the syllable count may not be as easy as one thinks. Joseph May October 30, 2021 at 6:50 AM Thanks Victor, the alliterations are not that easy, but once you get your first line, then your poem should flow from there

Brandy Nicole October 29, 2021 at 6:44 PM "Cotton clouds sail, shifting shapes across the big blue sky" Such a beautiful image. I belong floating in the tenderness of such moments, and your thoughts take me there. This is breathtaking, magical and dreamy, all at the same time. :) Hugs, Brandy Joseph May October 30, 2021 at 6:47 AM Thank you Brandy, glad the cotton clouds took you there

Heidi Sands October 29, 2021 at 3:31 PM This is beautiful Joesph. I felt like I was on my deck, near the lilac bush and with the rest of the description in the poem. Well done :) Joseph May October 30, 2021 at 6:45 AM Thank you Heidi, glad you like it.. :)
