Abracadabra Rhyme
Created by William Kekaula. The syllable count is your choice but must be the same for all eleven lines. abRacadabRa is the rhyme scheme, and the lines with the R's are reversed lines. All lines must be rhyming with the exception of lines 'c', and, 'd'.

Three delicate white petals plus three green leaves describes Ontario's official flower. Songbirds migrate back to sing in early spring, and depending on the rain the ground receives; trillium carpet the scene with white blossoms. When icicles no longer cling to the eaves, fresh fragrances of spring saturate the air. And snowmen soon slip away like frightened thieves seeking shelter from a warm April shower. In early spring, songbirds migrate back to sing above tapestries, the white trillium weaves. (Abracadabra Rhyme) 4/18/2021

Intriguing, Emile, leave it to google to plaster awe on my face -- on a separate note, abracadabra becomes tough as reversing is a telltale criterion -- my gratitude for your participation, and my compliments on your well-deserved placement my friend, Aloha!
