In the Blink

When will pretty?
      leaves of green,
bud with everlasting
      love, skies
splash intense cerulean?
   and rivulets of ivy
cascade, junipers
  show off their Spring?
outfits, roses
      purse their lips
of pink and red
    wink at him, shower?
her with adoration
   petals.  in the blink
of an eye, changes
will arrive, cold
tucked in heaven’s chest.

Love the staccato rhythm, at least that's what I detect, you've employed in these lines of precious, precocious,... OK, why not?---perspicacious verse, Kim! The effect is audio-visually stunning, and really works for me!... The message can't be beat either. Already can't wait for Spring! Warm wishes, Gershon
