Paul Callus Date: 8/24/2020 5:42:00 AM Striking imagery with a dash of alliteration, Kim. Somehow, every time I come across the word "vermillion" it reminds me of Keats! ~ Regards // paul Login to Reply Kim Rodrigues Date: 8/24/2020 7:00:00 AM Thank you, Paul! Yes, very pretty: She was a gordian shape of dazzling hue,/Vermilion-spotted, golden, green, and blue.

Joe Dimino Date: 8/23/2020 9:32:00 PM Lovely image. I think they do look appetizing in a way...and were a hummingbird I could not resist. As I am, I will admire their beauty and be fully satisfied. The blossoms seem to be swimming through the air. Login to Reply Kim Rodrigues Date: 8/24/2020 7:01:00 AM A beautiful buffet for the hummingbird:) Thank you!
