As vernal coverlet seals winter's snow,
From nimbus urn, Aquarian heart so sleight
Decants time's cleansing waterfalls below
In pure ablution of past season's blight.

Remanding discord and consouling strife,
This host befalls renewed vivacity
Once sallow hearts now carpet verdant life,
With resurrected faith that we may see

Effluent love. Spring nascency's begun,
Anointing solar rays' descent on rills
Of rainbows hues reflecting golden sun
In bounteous eyes of springing daffodils.

Enlightened by a sapient sun above,
Inspired by ablutions' flowing love.

I rest my case that you are the queen of sonnets!   I remember this one well and I am still in awe of your talent.

Have you ever thought of publishing your work?

Take care,
Melissa~
