Glistening stigmatic

Gazing back

Gently beckoning

Pristine fabrics

    This is such a cool and colorful poem! You did a great job picking words that all start with the same letter in each part. I love the "pumpkin" and "strawberry" colors you picked. It sounds like a song when I read it out loud.
