Notes About The Poem

The Wild Ones

on redolence lane
tangled and wild roses teem
I'm going places
yellow birds fly through jade trees
cream and purple butterflies

joy down sunshine way
and hues are following me
waltzing in beauty
this portrait of summertime
so gold embossed on my mind

One thing you can surely be grateful for 24/7 --- that G-d didn't create you color-blind... And we readers can surely be greateful for that as well. Thank you for the richness of your verse, Evelyn. Rainbows of Rapture, gw

Evelyn, I've been away too long from this place, this summertime painted in your mind. Fine brush strokes. -Richard

All the colors of Spring and Summer are a delight after a long cold Winter of snow and ice. We eagerly wait for Spring and long for warmer weather once Christmas has passed. Well done Evelyn. God Bless, B

Having four seasons is so interesting, and it always gives us something to look forward to - sort of like lasting presents to open. Thank you for your appreciation, Judy. Kindest regards, Evelyn :)

That's what I love most about great poetry -- its ability to capture forever in time a simple, luscious day, or a soaring, monumental episode. Love it!
