*Image of Purple Vanda Orchids Floral & Lei by EFC & Sziv. Prolix Pageantry Pulsations of veinuous royalty courtesies yond the proverbial realm. Majestic interludes flamboyantly acquired vesper's affections, overwhelm. Cupid cedes ecliptic earth's lauded star, hauling affianced light neath golden rays. Purple Vanda orchids in gild's wake are velvety mosaic succeeding phase. Proxy promises bonny lavenders pealing gingerly as princely petals induce a princesses verbs. Challengers submit an amethyst crown ... all settles. Hawaii's champ, amaranthine Vandas laurel leis, like Purple Heart's ... lifespan 'twas. 2022 June 01 *2nd Place* Purple Flowers ~~Nayda Ivette Negron Flores: Judged 2022 June 25 *HMS: 10 syllables per x 14 lines = 140 syllables RZ: RhymeScheme; abab, cdcd, efef, gg.
