My Muse and Me

Deep violet Hibiscus with velvety petals,  On the quaint fence, sprawl the zestful creepers. Mesmerizing tall branches of serene evergreen,  With tricksy Swallowtails, Redbreast Robin merrily whistling. Ebullient songs of chirping Hummingbirds, Little bushy squirrel excitedly searching for nuts,  Large leaves of Willow creating a comforting shade underneath,  Reminding of secret footsteps, rustling of leaves. Mysteriously charming moon with blinking stars at night,  Gleaming jewels tell poignant stories, luminous and bright. An unforgettable lullaby raindrops whisper,  Meanders in my alluring dreams, a gently murmuring river. Peacocks dancing in a trance to the exuberant melody of rain -  Enthralling are the mystical rays of golden dawn divine. In the fathomless blue ocean of my memory, I dive, and find the pearls,  My muse, my inspiration - guiding light, most precious!  Crooning mellifluously in my recurring dreams,  The deepest love, the immense blissfulness, all intertwined!  July 26, 2020 A Brian Strand Rhymed Poetry Contest
