Notes About The Poem

Gossamer Wings

Gossamer wings are dancing on spicy wind,
In maddening swirls of color and sunshine!
Red mists scattered, gone around the bend,
And mauve wisteria cascades from its vine.

Hummingbird premieres in dance hall days,
Along with butterflies stunningly varicolored.
Colors travel with winds in the sunny blaze,
Over the tall emerald grasses, lately stirred.

Evelyn, Pretty as a picture, and luckier than Aladdin's lamp. 'Hummingbird premieres in dance hall days,' Maybe you're the Genie ready to grant three wishes. -Richard

You've written a really detailed piece of poetry, Evelyn. The final two sentences are pretty intriguing: Colors travel with winds in the sunny blaze, Over the tall emerald grasses, lately stirred.
