Stained Glass Sunrise

I watch each stained glass sunrise as it surfaces from the sea and each sunset, when dusk paints pastels with grand esprit No fence surrounds my oasis, no flashing lights or blaring horns and I've hybridized my roses, so no longer do they have thorns September 4, 2020 Rithimus Divisa 5 Contest Sponsored by: Greg Barden Taken from 'Nestled in Daydreams' Posted on August 18, 2020

A wonderful write Jenna, I think esprit is a word that should be used more often, it's a very poetic word, congrats on a top win!

Massive Congratulations, Jenna. Quite a remarkable write. The description here is poetry personified. Specifically, a position I need to arrive at in my life. I will meditate on its sensible (albeit difficult) message.

Beautiful images throughout, Jenna. I do like the picture of the rose without thorns but the images of "stain glass sunrise" and "pastel" dusk are really very imaginative and unique! Congratulations!

Adored the imagery you set up here, Jenna, and the thorn-less roses - a concept I have used more than once, full of delicious ambiguity and layering ... I lean toward shorter lines, but it makes no difference when it flows as smoothly as this does - superbly done! Blessings and thanks for entering, My Friend! :o) <3
