Notes About The Poem

Looking For a Better Day

Yarns are swerving right now,
as sadly as a fall coat of leaves
It's crimson for a split second,
sending cures from the last zest.

the shade then fades to yellow,
I wish I could be so buoyant and upbeat.
as if it haunts an anachronism,
the glow dims to an amber hue.

thusly, like the acrid tangy taste.
my heart kindles a jauntier tomorrow.
