On the museum walls, a many hued color explosion,
As in varicolored gardens where beauty is spoken,
Or emerald forests where strange wildness thrives,
Scarlet macaws, blue frogs and orchid bee hives!

On nameless city streets, a steady fashion parade,
And sunshine orchards where luscious fruit is made.
Circuses and carnivals, with clowns and balloons,
And seeing flamingos dancing, on golden afternoons.

And popular culture in its varied shades and styles,
Painting upon the times, many appreciative smiles.
And the blur of lovely cars, sleek on the highway,
Heading toward red sunset, no thought of yesterday!

You have "Imagined" such a glorious scene Evelyn, and I see your love for bold color shine brightly in your imagery and the painting you chose. Always a treat to me to see how you integrate gorgeous words with music and visual art. A feast for the eyes, ears, and mind. Blessings ~ John

Excellent use of color. In Malta it's overcast and cold and rainy. Hope you'll have a happy New Year. ~~
