I can't even remember if Isaiah wrote about animals. To tell you the truth my imagination is very poor when it comes to Paradises. This one looks much more like an informal zoo.
Expectant about your next poem.

"informal zoo"... lol
Challenge: roses, daisies, cave, music, exquisite, germinate
music most sublime
inquisitive minds germinate not unlike
gardens in Spring when music fills the air -
from the elemental whisperings derived
from nature's soulful spirit to the exquisite
roar of vast cavernous stadia of rock & roll
a sweet rose's kissluscious music most sublime
even daisies blush

Charming poem forming a flower!

Next: shimmer, tide pool, fading, shipwreck, moon, lavender
Under the lavender moon
Under the dusky lavender moon
shimmers the fading wreck of the ship,
the fading wrecks of so many ships,
caught by the treacherous icebergs.
For the roaming aerial eye,
not far from there
a small tide pool swarms with of life:
snails, barnacles, mussels, anemones,
urchins, sea stars, crustaceans, seaweed, and small fish.
Their now is eternity.
Next: road, water, sunlight, surface, climb, happily.

Challenge: road, water, sunlight, surface, climb, happily
celestial proceedings
the water's surface: a mirror
in the moonlight -
sunlight can not compare
for its climb blots nearly all
other celestial proceedings
from view with its glare -
happily my road lies on the
celestial side not blinded
by everyday cares

Some of the most famous beaches of Brazil (don´t mind the text) The rocky ones are in Rio Grande do Norte, up in the north. I didn´t like them so well, when I was there. One has to be care not to hurt the feet on the stones, when getting into the water:

Next: dance, muse, piccolo, lightness, drift, mote
Dancing to "baby elephant walk for piccolo".
Muses dancing too, highheeled
drifting with lightness,
balking motes
belying their fame
of ecstatic goddesses.
Next:beginning, wildflower, wonder, wandering, niche, engine.

Wonderful beaches
Love your lighthearted poem
Challenge accepted !
Challenge: beginning, wildflower, wonder, wandering, niche, engine
wandering
wandering and wondering
left my engine behind
espied in the beginning
a wildflower in a niche
wandering and pondering
upon this path and that
aimlessly meandering
to a shore strewn with jade
wandering and maundering
just a trifle bit worn
chanced upon the færies
and decided to rest
wandering and sauntering
now fully refreshed
sought out for my engine
to re-enter the race

Yearning for home
Spinning a yarn
about this dragonfly
exiled in the matrix
of old Saturn,
a planet
hard as a diamond,
but without its lustre
and its promise of welt.
Next:underlying, detect, field, immense, bottomless, mammal.
