Beads of dew
shining on flower petals
reflecting the watercolors of dawn
light piercing the leaves
sunbeams filling a room
gentle light bathing a cheek
gleams sparkling from eyes
alive with mischief
candle flame warming skin tones
highlights and shadows parting
then closing like dancers
choreographed and marking time
as the sun traces its path.

Your words paint the perfect picture in my mind - no photo needed. Lovely - wonderful image.
Loved the sensory details. :) Colorful and descriptive. You're a natural.
It's amazing how you can pack so much detail into just 55 words.

Very nice.
Rabbit rabbit.
Stopped by for the first time on the 55 trail! Beautiful imagery from a fellow Pennsylvanian.
This is what you call a perfect poem, 55 words or less or more. Man, that is spot on (as Bazza would say). you iz vewwy good.
My Saturday Flash Fiction 55:
He took careful aim.
It was evil mean and nasty to center the good lady in his crosshairs.
Her disposition was angelic and her intentions always good.
Finger on the trigger, he slowly squeezed while holding his breath.
"This is going to hurt me more than it hurts you," he whispered quietly.
You've been tagged.
This is a beautiful 55, Lime. The imagery is amazing.
The mischievous eyes MUST be yours.
Except, wait, your eyes are tie-dyed.
Must be one of your kid's eyes?
what a lovely poem!
