giving off their rich pollen....

A cerulean jay
perches
atop a papaya tree.
One goitered old woman
preens
a bright comb
in chartreuse hair....

unfurled in blooms verdant green
waned ochre fern sprawls

my sister turned light chartreuse

after hearing on the news

the end is quite near

a blizzard all year

so we recommend snowshoes.

let us

drink the chartreuse

yellow green fields with our

eyes till we escape our ramparts

with wings

chartreuse leaflets sprinkle dew,
   with faint droplets...opaque hue-
                 weave me lattice to renew

Poets sacrificed

and laid upon rocks

describe

the Hues of Heaven

I see...magenta

I see...chartreuse

I see...cerulean

I see...?

I see...?

I see...God!

Too bad we can't adjust the color of our dandruff
To the color of our clothing each day, maybe a shade of buff
Or perhaps chartreuse
Maybe a baby blue
Everyone would want dandruff to be up to snuff...

LEAVING THE PASSENGERS BEHIND

chartreuse
                  caboose 
footloose 
                  vamoose

The overworked     chartreuse caboose     spun,
ran off the track    footloose     vamoose     done.

Do you hate a red dog 
because he is red?
Do you hate blue dog
because she is blue?
What color is your dog?
OH, it's Chartreuse.
Then should they hate you
and your shade of dog to?
Well Hell No
Haven't we seen enough Proof?...

All the many trees have donned their October hues,
the air is cool and sky is blue sublime:
I adore the leaves in red, and divine chartreuse,
and assorted bird songs that drift and chime;
halfway through October is a lovely time....

Upon the painted hills of green and yellow gold
In a dew drop serenade
Porcelain eyes of the fragile doll
Flickering diamond light of a chartreuse dream  
Wake in a silent breath of morning light

There was this teal duck and Canada goose,

   That 'neath a cloistered Colorado spruce,

      Enjoyed a lusty-ful tryst,

         Ending up in a quaint twist!

            Their offspring sported feathers of chartreuse!

The chartreuse pearls hung on the pregnant vine
as whispered jade of leaves in autumn breeze.
The necklaces of trellis did entwine
like clefs of absinthe notes in verdant keys.

Spring in her charming
ways sprouts lime-green grasses
that in early Autumn

will be a sun faded
shade of chartreuse, in overgrown
fields, or farmlands bowed 

to a coral sky.
And by the Sea, Spring's diamond hues
captivate the shore.

Her gown of sprouting green, sleeves of new leaves
Jade shade illuminates fresh summer rain
Woven gossamer silk on turquoise trees
Threaded through her mare's alabaster manes
Planting gold hope along emerald lanes
November mists persists in chartreuse dawn
With aspirations to sage Avalon.

Pleiades

Coax me with c a r e s s e s-
Color me chromatic…
Champagne and fine dining
cure my calamities.
Cast aside life’s spent cares-
Cover me in c h a r t r e u s e 
Calla Lilies…tonight.

WE ate cherries for breakfast
in our pink champagne
by evening we're twisted,
and yes,quite insane
lounging in loveland
on coconut isle
you taste like chartreuse
in a Berlioz style
classical music kissing the air
taking us higher
alive and aware
obsession,possession,
come take me away,
the fire and the passion,
I need you today!...

Springtime
Dreaming of warmth
Flower stems peeking out
Vibrant, rainbow colored petals
Warm morning breeze wafting of lilac blooms
Hummingbirds sipping at feeders
Chartreuse goldfinches sing
Perching in trees
Springtime
