Primed To Coalesce

season of mists and mellow fruitfulness,
citrus squeezed, lemon and lime ~
love’s carrot-top drizzle.

the umbrella man primed to coalesce,
his yellow crop of hair blends
with watercolor scent.

grinning in the rain, she wears cocktail dress ~
tummy band stretches nine months
as he pays for her drinks.

cockle shells and wedding bells nonetheless.
a beached whale rests on the sand ~
bouquet’s ready to pop.
