Thank you for sharing this poem with us. Using the Calls Lilies as a metaphor for a bride is perfect. Also including the moon. I know we now have a blushing bride. Fantastic imagery.

Personification is my favorite literary device. That's a interesting and colorful imagery. Your haiku should do well in the contest.

Best wishes,

Alexandra

Your poetry always leaves such a soothing peaceful feeling in one's soul. (Not the flesh eating holiday ones. Those are fun in their own right).

I love the creative beauty of your mind. It is a gift. It is a kindness that you openly share this gift.

I guess the white lilies are reminiscent of brides that are usually clothed in white. The moon is often associated with romance so that the "blushing brides" lilies await the moon fits the analogy.

Ps. Micaela, Atticus, and nick went on vacation so I have the house to myself for a week. I forgot how quiet it is when you live alone.

I'd imagine it would be too quiet. Listen to some music and dance! 💖

Take a good rest. Hope your arm isn't too painful. I got the flu shot with the pneumonia one. It took a few days to get rid of the swelling and pain.

I had a hard time sleeping last night. It's sore but not too bad. Thank you (*=*)

reply by lyenochka on 20-Oct-2023

I took Tylenol that first night because it was so sore and swollen. Hope you sleep better tonight! 💞🙏
