Summer Colors

Summer dances in the hills dressed in colors of the fields golden braids sunlit skin velvet gown aquamarine veil of flowers lilac pink saffron diamonds ruby ring on her hair a crown of green with cerulean sparkling beads chartreuse shoes, coral lips rose fragrant lily mix skipping dancing with the wind in her arms a basket fill guavas lemons nectarines watermelons cherries figs poppy flowers golden wheat chasing crickets bumble bees till the leaves festive green turn to golden fallen tears then twirling waves goodbye colors mist rise and vanish with a wink return a smile. Sixth Place Winner: Brian Strand-No 1291-3/3/24 Sixth Place Winner: Brian Strand Premiere No 1202-3/25/23. First Place Winner: Brian Strand-All Yours-3/6/21
