Blue Struggle

Fragrant light from lemon leaves Emanate and sit in the wet grass Contour of your irresistible face On the shadow laid by apple tree However, you and I have shut our doors Outside amidst the people and animals Inside blue darkness of the sea shore and The lemonish light yet make us vulnerable Dense dank dark dew dripping inside From the clouds under sheer starvation My poignant apple leaves are glistening In the jewels of sparkling raindrops Are you too at this momentum of lemon Now are handling our light in the dark And emitting red electrons like the melon To break open death and denial stark? ______________________________________ 12/9/2016

Lemon leaves and lemonish light, present such vivid images, Probir. Some great alliteration in the third stanza. I enjoyed the read.
