Notes About The Poem

Twisted Popcorn

Twisted popcorn lace decorates
The eastern pale blue sky
A canopy of delight hangs
Miles and miles up high

Upon the eastern horizon
An orange sun seeks to climb
Across the sun streaks of purple clouds
The sun arrives just in time

Apricot jam slathered across
Dripping stickily on pines
Silhouetting an outline there
Of oaks and pines combined

Thank you, God, for the beautiful
Artistic scene on the sky
A few moments to watch nature
And swallows dart and fly
