Close up you can see the colossal amounts of energy it took to grow this plant from a seed An even closer look through the microscope, inside lies the complete genetic information Images of texture I can almost feel Spikes that pop up prickly come alive I have no limits to magnification I can see vibrant stars dead center Elements of sunshine tan and green Sediments of gill filaments in V-shapes Arrows in grooves with silver linings Natures details to resemble filigree Mucus glowing its sickle-shaped petal lobes Milky sap growing within, aligning milk vines and perfect pinwheels Nature’s own flower arrangements Under a microscope

Whoa you’ve done an exquisite job on this magnification prompt dear anaya, i was looking at it but wasnt sure what exactly she wants, or is looking for. Ive however written previously for an anthology on similar prompt. I really love your detailed descriptive diction and the way this flows in such a creativ manner: I believe this should do very well in the contest. Pleasure reading you always. Sending your light

A botanist with a quill for a side-kick, exceptional penning, Anaya. I could be wrong, mayhaps an astrologist or farmer-in-the-dell, if anything, a winner in my book, my friend. Aloha on this not too far from Pearl Harbor Dec 7th day, William

It's sorta inescapable here but it does trend a memorial-like atmosphere, no gloomy faces just souls remembering. Aloha

I wish I could be all! Thank you, William! I read that 82 years ago, 2,403 service members and civilians were killed unprovoked. Thank you for reminding us, Aloha Anaya

Oh my, dear Anaya, this took me on a whole vibrant adventure as if I'm in a fairyworld and getting the chance to become miniature whilst looking at these unique wonders of nature.. Your descriptions are so amazing and they create a picturesque view in my mind.. Beautifully conveying the genesis of the magical flower.. Wow.. This is truly profound and breathtaking! Brilliantly crafted... :)
