Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures of different colored althea bushes in a flower garden

 

Image result for hubble telescope pictures of nebulae

And Blossom In Purple and Red

The nebulae where a star was born
Alive glowing colors in varied hues
Glittered like a jeweled necklace that adorns
A bride ready to wed dressed in beaded shoes
Sparkling sunlight on water to amuse

Nebulae with shades of cobalt blue
A beauty drawing mankind to explore ahead
Like beautiful flowers of summer petals strew
Compared to Althea in her glory purebred
Nebulae glow and blossom in purple and red
