Notes About The Poem

Pastel Afternoon

cream is on the rose
pale blue skies have chiffon clouds
lemon sun, lilacs

pale buds opening
champagne sand and sea frothing
pink daisies dreaming

peach blooms in shadows
she is waking from her nap
in the heart of spring

What a dreamy poem this is - a kaleidoscope of color, imagination and poetic talent. Spring is always looked forward to after a cold long Winter, however 1st of March is the start of our Autumn, also a wonderful season. Great poem Evelyn. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Oh, Evelyn, what lovely haikus. I thoroughly enjoyed them. They made me think of the lazy days of summer and long for July!
