For english, i have to write a sonnet and i chose snow as my topic. I wanted to use the word 'evanescent' in my sentence and i'm trying to say something along the lines of this: 'evanescenting into the grounds before me'. However, there is no such word as 'evanescenting', so i was wondering if you guys could help me think of a sentence that has the same meaning as 'evanescenting in the grounds before me', but so that it makes sense. It would be best if the word 'evanescent' appeared in the sentence.
THANKS!
p.s i will award 10 points to the person with the best sentence!!
p.p.s tell me if there is confusion in what i'm asking for!

"Evanescent" is the adjective form of the verb "evanesce". It sounds like you want the present progressive form, which is "evanescing".

in case you study some previous vampire thoughts the colour white seems to be linked with innocence. interior the romantics, that's linked with the chic. think of Moby Dick and attempt looking up "layout" via Robert Frost. There are soo many metaphors you're able to be able to make with tears and snow. attempt no longer searching for what they have in uncomplicated yet what they do no longer and use that to place them at the same time- i.e., how Chester Himes can turn a band enjoying jazz into an define on how a community exists.

I'd advise you to stick to simpler words in your sonnet.
"Evanescent" just isn't very evocative.
