Flower Diminished Hexaverse Poems

She’s a thrown compact

And I can not wait
To see bold colors.
Like trees in plush coats
Or roses’ new dress.

Eternal moments,
Live in memories,
Of past sunshine and,
Roses in the room,
Where nothing now blooms!

Chill's memory faint
Birds chirp before dawn
Windows flung open
Whites hang from the line

Nights are shorter
Days are longer
Weather's toasty
Flowers yawn, stretch

Morning's dew
Noon's sweat-drop
Evening's breeze
