Garland Bond

Embellished enchantress, cynosure bride bubbled elixir of laughter in a frenetic tide. Moonlight blushing, a bouquet on her face, sequined new dress, bejeweled satin grace. Silken rose jasmine, weaved in wedding wreath beamed pink love, magnolia prism beneath. Souls sipped wine, from golden pots of honey, an exchange of garland, 'You and Me' became 'We'.* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- * In Indian tradition, an exchange of garland is one of the most important wedding ritual. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsor John Hamilton Contest Name NA re-run This poem was NA ed in the following two contests 1.MAY 2019 PREMIER 3,ANY FORM,ANY THEME,UPTO A MAX OF 8(E I G H T )Lines sponsored by Brian Strand, dated 10th May 2019 2.

What a beautiful write Debjani, hard to believe this got an N/A in any contest. Proves that these contests are subjective, different sponsors react differently.
