Dale Gregory Cozart Poet Imagism

Afternoon Mosaic Garden

Rose quartz reposes
in peridot buds
Jade trees dangle
Ruby Reds
Unafraid 
lapis jays swoop
on a topaz cat
with emerald eyes
lazing
under a citrine sun 
Amethyst iris preen
through amber rays
of afternoon 
the shadow 
of a moon stone
whispering
behind an aquamarine sky
A silent pool meditates
in turquoise
