Fragrance of the Dream: On the Dream's Window.
Fragrance of the Dream: On the Dream's Window.
O flower in a painting, blooming with fragrance and dew,Whispers of a sweet morning that refuse to bid adieu.
Eyes that carry the secrets of spring's embrace,Where seasons wander, leaving no trace.
Your hair, a wandering wave of twilight's stream,Touches the light like a butterfly's dream.
And the rose in your hair, a tale to unfold,Of a pure heart and days untold.
O charm that captivates both time and place, Hiding in silence the sweetest melody's grace.
In a moment, you appear like a fleeting dream, Yet you're a reality, beauty's gleam supreme.

New features have arrived to help creators and owners of Exclusives and adoptables connect even more!
If you’re new to Exclusives, they’re one-of-a-kind artworks that artists can sell and buyers can own and resell through an easy, secure, and automated system. These can be adoptables, digital art, photography, 3D art, mixed-media creations, and much more.
