Picturesque- Summer Love

Flying high, touching the hues, of daylight end, heavenly peace,

Moving sand, writing with heart, and hang onto, see waves erase,

Am I real, imagination, Picture perfect, my dream ?


Summer love, a treasure trove, heat rises to, a newer high,

Bubbly self, sojourns beside, ever I heave, a deeper sigh,

Dream come true, A fascination, an illusion, factual ?

This is a treasure trove in itself, Upma. I notice the probing questions that seem to ask for reassurance...also as if asking us readers to participate in your write. Congrats on placing high on the winners' list. // paul

Little help dear new friend [not a rhyming form] each syllabic grouping needs to mean something and all of them together must relate [Flying as]3 - has no meaning [high as touching]4 has no meaning- where are [Flying high]3 has meaning! [touching the hues]4 has meaning [of daylights end] 4 [ heavenly peace] 4 / this has no rhyme [Flying high touching the hues of daylights end heavenly peace] 15 syllables /

it's OK to do less syllables but each grouping must stand alone & together SHOW don't tell..Light & Love
