Colored Dreams

Majestic shades of green
   rise with spring awakened scallion spikes;
Hunter greens edging into the forest hues
   blended in jaded moss clusters pacing;
shamrock stepping stones low upon the grass,
   amidst fern colored harlequin dreams;
minting limes scent the valley lily fields
   with fragrance of spring rain blooms set free.
Shaded emerald pines stretch tall and regal kings
   touching an arctic blue stone spruce assembly;
mixing morning azure navy skies creeping in
   wafting untethered upon the ocean cobalt waves;
longing criers wail at the wind swept of peacock plumes
   floating a wavy carefree farewell to Aegean lapis streams;
Each call out - come hither with scent and fragrance of the seas
   released surf to pantone Persian midnights
and all the hidden repressed dreams 
   of spring in early bloom
and oceans writhing in storm tossed summer stills
  blending earth and sea with colored dreams.
