Best Yellow Oak Poems
Summer, delightful smells of fresh lilac
lavender, mind beginning to sidetrack,
melodious sounds, busy honey bees
circling around blossoming Lemon trees,
clear fresh aquamarine slow flowing stream
reflecting sky of deep cerulean,
chartreuse aquatic plants that gently stroke
smooth coral pebbles under yellow oak,
bright saffron celestial star, water gleams
watermelon red, orange tangerine.
Seasonal color contest.

the soft yellow streaked the terra cotta,
shadowing the speckled sallow saffron
a bluish buff upon the cochineal;
brilliant boneblack
grizzled the engrain
citrine carnation
as
the fallow flaxen,rustic rubrical
rainbow-tinted
the magenta mandarine;
unseen
the ultra-marine, tinged burnt sienna,
reflecting a golden flame of raw umbery upon
the earth green;
bright mosaic gold
mottled the sallow sorrel
virent yellow,oak stained
the pale apricot;
while
blood red,reddish russet
dotted the olive lind;
freckled crimson,
a chestnut maroon,
on fuchsias faded apple green
as burnt umber sank deep
into its sanguine slumber.
