"Lemonade"

Ever praising with...

Misery, not just some vague inspiration.
He begs for...

Retro-Introspective
My life has travelled roads less taken, 
a tumbleweed, east, west, north and south, 
all around the world.
Sprouting, enticing horizons beckoned,

Every year I’m overwhelmed with desire,
when passing fruit stands, vegetable stands,
and even farm wagons on front lawns,
overflowing with fresh produce.

I salivate in the car and especially the grocery store,

Keeping my coloring
In hues of the softest
Black and white
Always inside the lines

Tempering the brilliance
Of lively, dancing

Awakening the spirit
To dreams that are colored
Like scarlet, cobalt
And violet thoughts
Whispering...

You loudly roar blowing doors ajar,
