For Shadow Hamilton's Lets Rhyme contest.

As embers burn warmly at our campsite, fireflies propel, floating like citrus in flight. Crickets chirp in shadows of nature's delight, composing sounds against a backdrop of quiet. Spellbound by the magic of tender twilight, violet and clementine tints bless our eyesight. As indigo hues dissolve into midnight, stars slowly appear like sparkling crystallite. Silver pearls glowing from an elusive height, in synergy with lustrous rays of moonlight. Lost in natural wonders, passions ignite, lovers embrace, whilst poets begin to write. Marigold orb ascends to summon daylight, sapphire skies surface with fluffy puffs of white. Morning melodies birds begin to recite, the heart hopes such beauty can be infinite.

When I read this I get a feeling that these rhymes have come to you so easy and effortless and never forced. This is indeed a very sweet description of a bonfire under a star spangled sky and the gentle arrival of the beautiful dawn. Into my FAVE.

Stunning melodies in their entirety, dear SO. I greatly admired your poetic prowess and strong metaphors present in your poetry. As a marigold orb climbs to invoke sunrise, fluffy white puffs grace the sapphire-blue heavens at the top. As birds commence with their early-morning recitation of melodies, the heart yearns for such boundless beauty. BOL with the contest, this is a fave.

There's a sense of poeticism that you've styled, Silent One, yielding pleasantries. Shadow writes simplistically, having read her sample for this contest. Hoping she finds favor in yours, --tossing in a couple of crossed fingers as well. Aloha, William
