Natural Sensation

This is for the Vocal "Sensational" poetry challenge

This is for the Vocal "Sensational" poetry challenge

The prompt is:

Write a poem inspired by the five senses.

I have decided to just use five quatrains, one for each sense, so it is sort of a nature sonnet but not. I don't know if this is a defined poetic format, but it is a poem with rhymes and six syllables per line (if I can count correctly).

To See The Sun Rising

The Colours In The Sky

Shades As You Walk Along

Trees And Flowers Nearby

πŸ‘ƒ

To Smell The Sweet Fragrance

Of Flowers In Meadows

That Makes Your Senses Dance

And Sets Your Heart Aglow

πŸ‘„

To Taste The Sweetest Wine

That Excites The Tastebuds

As It Flows O'er Your Tongue

Such Tasteful Sweetness Floods

πŸ‘‚

To Hear The Dawn Chorus

And The Voice Of A Love

Sweet Birdsong To Soothe Us

In The Green Trees Above

πŸ™

To Touch The One You Love

And Hold Them Ever Close

To Hold Them, And Still Blush

Know You Love Them The Most

    I loved feeling and appreciating each of the senses in these lovely stanzas. My favorite line was 'to hold them, and still blush'. Aww!!!
