Poem Artwork

 

She pirouettes in warm daylight
Settles to parade her hues
Richest of the velvet reds
and almond studded sapphire blues

Russet basque with epaulettes
Pewter edged, in fragile frame
but do you know her, have you met?
she has the most beguiling name
 
Reflecting Nature's artistry
...in richly woven coloured smock
A favoured few can share the plume
...of glorious, mighty, Miss Peacock

Your command of just the right adjectives to use here is truly impressive. Just the modifiers themselves could make a poem. You are gifed. Keep writing.

I had to look her up. Finding that she resides in Wales! She is certainly stunningly beautiful and your poem describes her so well and as beautifully as words can do.

Kudos to you.

Lately I've been watching our resident beauties. The giant swallowtail and the black swallowtail. Perhaps I need to write a poem about them. But I doubt if I could do as well as you have.
