Thank you for explaining a Rictameter. This poem is beautiful and truly splendid! The words you have chosen are soft and gentle ones, as gentle as an orchid. I especially like... nimbly nodding gently as the whisper of
a soft breeze.

Comment from dragonpoet
Nicely done rictameter poem. It uses metaphor, personification, and alliteration to give a strong image of a lily. Nice choice of artwork.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy

Comment from karenina
This is a very lovely theme for your well-presented Rictameter. Your count is perfect, and the left alignment seems to work beautifully, in this script-like font. Not sure why "Sepals" is capitalized? My thought was perhaps to balance the capital "S" in the first and last word "Splendid?"
Excellent image to enhance your writing!

Karenina, Sepals is the scientific spelling for this part of the Orchid flower.
-
Ah! Thanks for that info... Oxford Dictionary lists it as a noun...
I'm not up on scientific spelling!
:)

This had a nice, sensual feel to it, and the images just leapt off the page. It was colorful, there were these soft textures and shapes of flower petals, very erotic, reminiscent of Georgia O'Keefe and her flower petal paintings. estory
