Fireflies dance in cystal falls of lunar light flowing softly down the Blue Ridge mountains. When the moon is full and in its darkest hour the whip-poor-wills bathe in lunar fountains. In the mandarin orange light of dawn as the sun awakens the mourning doves, Wildflowers bloom near the serpentine streams and blossoming trees of purple foxglove. Fog of the mountaintops bloom like a rose as the birds and the flowers intermingle. Raindrops paint sculptured mountains blue brush painting ridges with periwinkle. Beneath canopies of hickory and oak trees exotic feathers and harmony in the leaves. Blue Ridge mountains a painting of appease in the tranquility of a moonlight eve. ~Victoria I was adored once too.
