Welcome of the Palms Ovation

Welcome of The Palms Ovation Cold sharp dawn Of chrome lit silver Dusty summer heat no more Clean polished sun Risen in perfect sea of azure skies The lines of palms Are twinkling suffused natures decorative Flimsy delicate tips Of fronds caught dancing Shimmer and shimmy together With a soft winds breezing Glitter electric in their Skyward dusting reach Shivered light from their stretching arms Random ballets sparkle Catching stars of falling water Hang momentum frozen As with spangled flitter The Palms are talking In tones of daylight fireworks Pyrotechnic fountains Of scintillations green Soft explosion spray Their anthem of beauty To the breaking day

Wow, great poem and great imagery. I love your metaphor to describe these beautiful trees, so many of which are succumbing to disease. What a sad thought if they were no longer to form a part of our landscape. Love, Nigel
