Lustrous Alabaster White

Nacreous and opaline iridescence Scattered through my gated garden Million white tendered blossoms Oozing intoxicating perfumed bursts Most divine exotic jasmine Beaded lily of the valley Melodramatic calla lily Trumpet playing lilium Oversized amaryllis Inspirited hyacinth Lotuslike magnolia Tall spiky foxgloves Rock garden candytuft Innocence of baby’s breath Exalting nacre for my opalescent muse AP: Honorable Mention 2020, Front Page Pick 2023 Posted on February 19, 2019
