Notes About The Poem

untitled

Wind wafting wisteria blooms, so gently; In the purple haze of laid-back summer. Milky moon gazes through onyx, intently Red rose shivers, at drumroll of thunder. Honeyed noon longs for rainbow sunset; And sable shadows start to sneak away. Sunrise on molten sea, liquid gold asset! Yesterday lives in vibrant heart of today. Farewell flowers. Hail pretty colors, fall! In beauty, scarlet cardinal is still singing. Trampled, hued leaves of nature's thrall, Of no end. Mauve butterflies are winging.

Dear Evelyn, your words flow like "liquid gold." You are the poet of the rainbow! Beautiful use of alliteration and vibrant images like the "shivering rose." Congratulations on your win as you capture the breath of beauty. Warm blessings to you, my friend.

I love this description. It makes me feel that nature is constantly in movement of beauty. Wisteria holds a subtle message of nostalgia.
