Backlit Nature Revision 2

The rising Sun spills sanguine gold,
From spotty splits in skin.
The drops descend so ceaselessly
Wetting earths tilted spin.

The greenery spreads with quickness
Their leafy limbs bend over
Trees tilt, raising lips to the sun,
Drinking their honeyed lover--

Brown grasses sway incessantly,
whispering words of wind,
Dubbed blades merely by  appearance,
They bow to simple skin

Sweet singers perch on vantage points,
Ruffling plumage proud.
Silky syllables, meaningless,
Unless they're hear aloud.

White tipped waves wash upon the sand
Salty upon grey shore
A wondrous azure spectacle
But bound to grey moons core

Her eyes as true as cat or hawk
Though deeper than green sea
More soulful than an animals,
With no reason to be.

Two wondrous globes sit in sockets,
As strong as worlds alone,
Never behold such great beauty,
Still staring at a phone

Trees tilt tacitly to sun,
Drinking their honeyed lover.

All focuses finely tuned.
Springing on shadowy specters,
Feeling fall flowers bloomed. Grammar

Hi hope,
You have had some good advice already. It would be interesting to see if you can apply it. If you intend revising could I tentatively suggest that you discipline yourself regarding the rules of grammar and syntax. Because this is in novice I have highlighted errors but leave you to correct them...as an exercise, so to speak. One more thing, it is no longer necessary to capitalise every line. It is very old hat and pointlessly pedantic...quite apart from being confusingSmile
Best,
tectak
