Lord of Beauty

What magic infuses the frangipani with a luscious scent so pure, or, a twilight with pink pellucid rays ? The same that makes a stone menagerie of fossils, or ripples a mockingbird’s wing with faint vermillion fires. Inherent in us this memory of natural beauty handed-down along Ancestral lines Each thing on earth beholden to the same Creator. 2nd. Place For Silent One’s 10 Word Ten Line Challenge Menagerie Vermilion. Infuse. Mockingbirds Twilight Frangipani Lusicious Pellucid. Ancestral Ripples
