frozen quintessence
empyrean domain drains
into glaucous grapes
The frosted look of the concentrated essence (quintessence) is nothing but the melted (drain) colors of the sky (empyrean domain) that have taken shelter inside the glaucous-colored grapes in a frozen form.

Hi Anisha! Thanks for trying. A lot of blogs are having issues. I’ve even changed to Discuz, which has allowed more people to comment than the WP comments box. You’re not in spam. Sorry this is happening. Hugs 💕🙂
