First attempt with an etheree poem

Spring’s perfume, delicate, sweet and fragrant, weaves the heady scent of lilacs and pansies together; a refreshing bouquet of invisible hope which floats lightly around and seeps deep into your heart to coax a smile from you.

A big THANK YOU to Carolyn Hastings for introducing me to this form of poetry. Something brand new for me to enjoy and immerse myself in!

I’m content to write a simple straight-forward etheree, so kudos to everyone who writes in reverse!
