MAGENTA
I cannot tell the difference
Between fuchsia and magenta
All I know is what I learned
From watering those
Ballerina flowers
Pirouetting on air
Held by long delicate arcs
No lantern traps
Of anglerfish
Just that tender offering
A hanging garden
Robed in contrast
Lady in black
Deeply blushing sepals
Grasping ebony corollas
Between fuchsia and magenta
All I know is what I learned

Ballerina flowers
Pirouetting on air
Held by long delicate arcs
No lantern traps
Of anglerfish
Just that tender offering
A hanging garden

Lady in black
Deeply blushing sepals
Grasping ebony corollas

I like this beautiful musing my poet.. once this competition has concluded, you need to take your family to Disneyland, they definitely deserve it for the support. On that soft note, enjoy your evening and you as well as the rest of the Napo participants are doing fabulous..

Your wife Danielle has excellent taste in color! Magenta is one of my colors and you have captured it perfectly here, even reflecting that most men are absolutely clueless as to subtle differences of color hues and shades! LOL! To my father, it was ALL pink, or red, blue, and so forth!
This was some kickass imagery combined with a bit of human humour! You're doing fabulous this year as a participant and team member! Sorry I haven't really had the time to comment as I would like!
