Mellifluous

Music to my ears, so mellifluous is the nightingale's song, ambiguous, Give ear to her notes, they float on the breeze, swirling through the air, they're tuned to appease; I dance to her song, so mellifluous, She's sitting somewhere, inconspicuous, Her aria drifts down and I’m entranced, In the stillness, her whistling sounds enhanced; I hear her melody, mellifluous, and I forget all my cares, strenuous, Lost in her lilt, feeling romantical, All I needed was Nature's canticle; Such mellifluous strains, simply classic, I hear the voice of God in her music. 09.18.2021

Wow! Jo, I'm glad you got to enter the contest before it closed. You did a great job with the "M" word that you chose. This is such a well-written Sonett, and the imagery was breathtaking. Your last line was a great ending to this lovely write, and it looks like a winner to me. Best wishes in the contest. Excellent job;-)Alexis
