The Revlon Kiss

It was a sizzling summer of electric blues and vibrant hues 
in  a garden full of flowers inked in plushy spanking reds 
a wall of buttress wood splashed with vines of green 
a purple morning glory with a touch of dewy sheen 
over by a mossy pond a mandarin duck of orangey blue 

The sun turns amber like a big fat shimmering coin of gold 
in a sky that often blushes fuchsia,  pink, by a cloud's enfold
emerald blades of grass behind a white striped skunk  
a gradient shade of orange, from a Siberian chipmunk 
here by the royal blue bench, a vibrant peacock fans bold 

It is a season of rainbow colored rain and red electric trains 
in a terrace full of trellises of white, roses bright as Spain   
blooming with vigor inside my bright oasis 
happily connected to a Revlon kiss,  
of  cherry berry merry, on a girl named Mary Lou Fontaine

Mystic Rose Rose, Crossed such a nice plateau in this trellis' dreamy 'sizzling summer of electric blues and vibrant hues'. Many count themselves lucky awaiting a kiss in such a garden. Gladly leave the 'cherry berry merry' marks on the whole day through. Keep bringing the colors of a Rose. -Richard
