Mural Musings the soft yellow streaked the terra cotta, shadowing the speckled sallow saffron a bluish buff upon the cochineal; brilliant boneblack grizzled the engrain citrine carnation as the fallow flaxen,rustic rubrical rainbow-tinted the magenta mandarine; unseen the ultra-marine, tinged burnt sienna, reflecting a golden flame of raw umbery upon the earth green; bright mosaic gold mottled the sallow sorrel virent yellow,oak stained the pale apricot; while blood red,reddish russet dotted the olive lind; freckled crimson, a chestnut maroon, on fuchsias faded apple green as burnt umber sank deep into its sanguine slumber. This a favourite poem because it combines my two hobbies art and poetry Copyright © Brian Strand | Year Posted 2007
