Notes About The Poem

- Roses With Sugar Sprinkle -

With brushes and pastels

                                     to feed the morning light

                                           if only for today

                                        Renewal and rebirth

                                       to see a color change

                                        Use your crystal ball

                                          with the opal eye

                                      Secrets and mysteries

                                       escape from reality

                                     Harmony and sympathy

                                          November frosts

                                          with sharp claws

                                        Summer's last rose

                                    with a sprinkle of "sugar"

                                                It is ...

                                    magic in free expression
