Lydia on Adding Lilacs to Your Garden

Highland Park in Rochester - Day Trips Around Rochester, NY

Lavender Sky Photograph by Sherri ...

"I love the silent hour of night,/ For blissful dreams may then arise, Revealing to my charmed sight / What may not bless my waking eyes." from first verse of Anne Brontë's "Night" tarrying in lilac dreams I flower in full sunlight where I flirt with butterflies and gleefully kiss tulips when lilac dreams wilt away I sojourn nearby a sea caressed by its rippling tides under a lavender sky the twilight turns into night bathing me in the splendor of a full blue-white hued moon and myriad stars’ sparkle deep violet melts away I drift again into dawn wishing that I could linger ever in sweet lilac dreams

Oh my, I absolutely love this jueju! What a gorgeous combination of colours, enriched with magical scents of floral atmosphere ~ I felt as if waltzing in an eden of dreams along aquamarine shores... "when lilac dreams wilt away I sojourn nearby a sea", "where I flirt with butterflies and gleefully kiss tulips" So beautifully done.. Best wishes for the contest, I adored reading this. Sending love & light ~
