Notes About The Poem

Memorably Maroon

their hue so striking
standing tall in the garden
sunflowers beaming

my deep crimson rose
has the trace of chocolate
like the evening skies

on the street of dreams
are showstopper maple leaves
with berries nearby

I want to see 'those showstopper maple leaves,' Evelyn. You have really piqued my interest with your haikus! Thanks, Gershon

I thrilled that I've succeeded in doing so Gershon. One day, when you least expect it, you'll see those maple leaves-I'm sure of it! :=)
