Hibiscus Sunrise

Hibiscus sunrise


Summer breezes surround me,  
sifting on the glowing rays 
beyond the heather hedge,
walking barefoot,
senses fly,
lemonade the tint…
born upon this early morning sky

Lantana lullabies,
still a faint offering,
relinquish me of moon fed destinies,
setting me free once more
in the golden sheen of a pristine
hibiscus sunrise

Soft, a haze does find me 
in a sphere of intoxicated dreams
swirling about this blue canopy,
this euphoric frame bordering 
the tapestries of nature’s happiness

On this day wings sprout,
gossamer in saffron flow 
from shoulders soft and bliss divine,
perfect of a vision I do long
to harbor near

For in my eyes again 
reflects your beauty
and I touch you…

Your smile finds my heart
as I breath in the majesty of my desires,
thanking the heavens once more 
for my blessings

Good morning Soupers

Demetrios Trifiatis July 13, 2017 at 7:29 AM Your poems so refreshing and invigorating should be read by all before they start the day my friend, Chris! Me I go up to my roof top garden where among other flowers one finds Hibiscus of various hues: Red, yellow, pink, white and orange! I love it as much as I love your poems my friend! Chris Green July 13, 2017 at 9:27 AM Thanks for saying so Demetrios. I too have several hibiscus plants growing in my yard. They are beautiful this time of year.
