Bougainvillea

In the jubilation of the trellis tossed emeralds and raspberries gleam like comets as cumulus crescendo with April's piercing cornflower. A determined wind carries the masses' clatter beyond cinder block walls, hueing the landscape with colors of acquittal. Daisies' and irises' imperial trespass reverberates as umber trunks and chartreuse shoots oracle forgiveness of crystal sins, foretell magenta angels' coming among a psalm of peonies. Dusk's mauve whispers sunshine’s lambent verses. I shall dream in morning glories and dandelion flowers while floating on lissome breeze. 3/28/19
