Twilight, Autumn, Winter, Seraph, Curiosity, North, Snow, Carnival, Silver, Night, Breeze, Whisper, and many more, but I don't want to go overboard.

Don't know if they're real words, but it's just fun to scream them.

Euphonious. It means pleasant sounding. It's it pleasant?
Also: catamaran ("waltzes off your tongue to its own jazzy tune").

Very Swift of you. Ha, ha, ha.
As I said, conniption. Also, mellow. Phantasmagoria is a disturbing word, but I like it.

Spiky.
Tintinnabulation, though I think I spelled it wrong. I usually only encounter it in Poe's "The Bells."
"Cellar door," by the way, is overrated.
But mostly spiky.

Shmorgasbord (no, i have no idea on how to spell it) was once my favorite word, but, like the above post, was replaced by brobdingnagian. (gotta love those words!)

I'm sure there are others, but it'll require more thought. Undoubtedly the first word that sprang to mind was...
HONK!
As in the noise a goose will make. I'm even giggling about it now. I think I had some childhood run-in with some geese that's ruined me for life. I did use to live next to a zoo though, maybe that was it. Honk. Ha... *chuckles to himself*

You have some lovely favorite words...very poetic.
A new favorite word of mine, ludicrious, and the name Lucifer. I also like the word baroo, which is what we call our dog.

Ethereal, dolorous, darkling, fey, winsome (do you sense a theme developing here?), loquacious, sustenance, susurrus, elipsis. Probably more, but I can't think at the moment.
