Notes About The Poem

" Monet's garden. Giverny. France " by Pedro Roldán Molina

 

Irresistible

a dazzling
firework display
spectacular
bursts of colour
exuberant extravaganza...
nature in passionate mood...
irresistibly
I yield to temptation.

A rather dazzling and condensing use of words, I must say. Very good my friend. Joseph of the Bible is my model for staying a safe distance from such fireworks. And thanks, Paul for your kind comment on 'Very Much Alive'.
