Oh, Burdock! Let me see spring's fuchsia
Against sapphire skies touched with clouds bistre
Let ivory raindrops flow from clouds lackluster
To nurture emerald hallelujahs 

Let thy fuchsia slowly fade turn to a ball
An emerald ball filled with seeds, ideas
Ideas vermillion, spicy mixed strias
Ready to release come amber of fall

When lilac blooms the awesome althea
Let bistre seed spill upon the ripe earth
Love as warm as ginger will it soon birth
The fall of life our love's panacea

Our spring's fuchsia turned into emerald
Silver winter turned soft rose petal gentle

Sonnet attempted to be written in Romanticism style..

P.S. I don't know if you ever get notified or not, but I do respond to your comments on my poems ... think there might have been a glitch on the site, because you posted two identical comments on two different poems (not sure how that happened?) ... it's odd again because Seeker (on the same poem) posted a comment that made no sense ... but sounded like it made perfect sense on a completely different poem. Very strange!

Ambitious ... I liked your ideas vermillion. Red is a fitting color to represent ideas as it's very bold. Course ivory raindrops were also pretty cool. Curious what Mr. Silent will think of it ... good luck.
